E2EE is an amazing pack, and has really made me hate all kinds of "artificial" gated progression that other packs use. E2EE uses a combination of organic progression via crafting recipes, and many ways to get to the same goal.

In my run, I just didn't feel like actually going to other planets with the rocketry mod. Making that choice in other packs would've killed all progression, but in E2EE it was more of a challenge to find the other ways to get the materials I needed - because there was always another way. I built an absurd, way-bigger-than-normal particle accelerator just to make the crystals I could've easily gotten on another planet... but that's what was awesome about it :)

Performance in the pack is quite good compared to other 1.12 packs, but the biggest thing I did not enjoy during my playthrough was having to care about things like TPS lag, and actively architect around it. Compared to modern minecraft packs, it's definitely a lot worse. That's a fun killer. I'm not sure if that kind of issue is fixed with cleanroomMC nowadays, maybe.
