Modded MC : Attaesta

I am sure that we are all quite well acquainted with the record-smashing survival sandbox game by Mojang, Minecraft. I have played Minecraft for a few years on and off with my brother, as well as my cousin and his group of friends. Generally, we start up a new vanilla server and just try to build up and play normally. That usually does not end well, though, because there are often many skirmishes and conflicts that just lead to everyone's structures being destroyed and everyone losing the mood to play. :(

Recently, one of my cousin's friends decided to try and make his own modpack for us to try and play. We had already had experience playing official mod packs like Tekkit, Voltz and so on, but we had never really played a mod pack that we ourselves created. (By we though, I mean one person XD )

Oh, and before I mention anything further, I should say that the group of us who play Minecraft and many other games together is known as EiSG, a.k.a. Einstein Gaming, named after our supposed 'leader', who goes by the in-game name (IGN) CaptainEinstein. He is the one who put this mod pack together. He named it Attaesta, and when I inquired as to how he came up with the name, he simply said that it was a result of him pressing random buttons on the keyboard. This is not strange to me, as my own name, Sdafhaa, was attained through the exact same method. XD

Attaesta is a huge mod pack as CaptainEinstein decided that he would try to make it by adding every single mod that we had ever used in other mod packs and many others that he deemed would be useful and interesting to play with. As a result, the mod pack consists of over 100 mods.

Ta-da

We have been playing this mod pack for 2-3 days now. Unfortunately I forgot to take the chance to update my blog with this informaton on Day 1 because of the excitement of playing Minecraft again after so long, so I hope you can forgive me for that. I shall post updates as we continue playing the mod pack so I hope you will all look forward to it :D. My next post shall be about our current progress and will come out very very soon (I will literally work on it after finishing this post).

For now, leave a comment below on what mod packs you have played in Minecraft and what you've accomplished with them :D I hope you all look forward to my next post !

(Obligatory disclaimer : The game Minecraft does not belong to me, obviously. And all the mods that I will mention in the following posts were not my creation and not owned by me or CaptainEinstein, he only put them together in a pack for our group to play together. Mod owners do not worry, we do not plan on distributing this pack to the public)

Wow, that disclaimer was longer than I thought it would be.
