Short, Tech and somewhat expert?

Btw, you can see my suffering at my youtube playlist (if you like chipmunks talking, this is for you)

Packs nowadays are too big and long, ESPECIALLY if they are export sized packs (dont get me started on 1.12.2 expert packs). If you want something that you could finish in about 2 weeks, this is the perfect pack for you.

This is a skyblock pack, everyone's definition of skyblock will be different (unless we the community create a new term for it), but it's worth noting my definition of a skyblock pack (doesn't mean its the correct one): low to no exploration, where you artificially create materials. (techopolis 3 on a flat world counts as a skyblock pack to my definition). Normally I feel that skyblock packs are "tied" with tech. I haven't seen no one do a skyblock exploration pack or stuff like that.

Now I feel that it being an "expert" pack is pushing it a little bit, I feel that the recipe chains are medium sized, I also cannot say its casual, since you have to be Reeeaaalllyyyy mindful of the space, you cannot really afford losing space.

Into the content!

Now for the content, starting of with what I love, this philosophy should be applied in any TECH heavy pack. Make pipes CHEAP, that's it! In 1 minute of starting you are able to craft item pipes and are able to start automating. I could go on a rant on saying hating on tech packs that make automation horrible to set up.

This doesn't mean that I love the pipes, it's something that the pack cannot fix but instead the pipe mods themselves (am talking about you, curvy and modern dynamics). I feel that atleast 15% of my time in the pack is configuring pipes. What becomes setting up automation is held back by a chore of filtering pipes.

Also the custom item textures and block texture are REALLY, REALLY, GOOD. I think it's worth mentioning that the sound muffler ultra (don't remember the name of the mod) is there for a really good reason, for muting atomic reconstructor sounds, so like mega good.

Hopefully I am able to edit this review as time goes on
