CraveCraft

This modpack includes a decent chunk of mods that are designed to enhance and add to the core Minecraft experience, instead of making it difficult or slowing down your progress. For those of you who like to play Minecraft but still feel like you're playing Minecraft, install this modpack. It includes many mods, most notably:

• Better Combat, a mod designed to improve the combat feel to a near-1.8-Minecraft flow, but make it better
• Reforged (Formerly TieredZ), a stat randomizing mod that gives all your equipment that would otherwise just be sitting around a little more purpose
• Inventive Inventory, an simple way to sort, lock slots, and replace hotbar tools in a flash
• The Aether, the dimensional mod we all know & love, to add a little flavor without taking away from what Minecraft is
• ChoiceTheorem's Overhauled Village & Terralith, mods that create stunning environments and villages for you to explore, all while retaining the vanilla style in a thoughtful manner
• And a plethora of other performance enhancing and quality of life mods

If you like Minecraft's simplicity but don't want to be overloaded by unfamiliarity, install CraveCraft and begin your Vanilla+ experience.
