Good modpack and was pretty fun. This modpack basically completely overhauls exploration and progression. Exploration being, by far, one of the BEST I've played. However, performance is lacking in many areas and even on lower render distances you can face stutters and lag spikes, which can make the experience worse. Playing with friends however makes this modpack significantly more fun. Resurvival definitely lives up to the name but still feels, at least in my experience, a little lacking. Good modpack overall.

Progression:

The Progression in Resurvival has been completely revamped with new tiers and with stone tools being replaced with flint tools. Overall the start is slower than vanilla but not bad. Never in the time I was playing did I ever feel like a god, the modpack is well balanced and challenging at many parts. However it feels lacking of something that I can't quite put my finger on it. I feel like a small questbook to guide some players, especially those new to modding, through the progression or the new features.

Highlights:

Resurvival adds several origins, or races, that you can choose from in the beginning. Each one with their own playstyles and all of which are fun. Although, it would be great if there were more origins. There are also new mobs you can fight including new varients of skeletons, and foes to fight.

Exploration:

By far the BEST part of this modpack. The large sky islands and peninsulas really complement the unique movement system that the modpack adds. Plus, the new movement system heavily enhances and makes moving around and exploring the areas fun and a thrill. Furthermore, many things in Resurvival have been added to enhance exploration: new structures, stunning world gen, and of course the sky theme. However, when under islands it becomes immensely dark and nearly impossible to see if shaders are off.

Cohesion:

In this modpack, I have not felt that a SINGLE thing looks or feels like it would be out of place. With the edition of the new bird-people that live on the sky islands really breath life into the modpack and fits the theme perfectly. Origins as well fit beautifully, all origins feel great, fun, and satisfying to play. My favorite being the forge golem. Each have their own unique playstyles and unique mechanics.

Combat:

This modpack is not EASY, just a fair warning, but it also isn't unfair. Of course there are ways to make it easier, such as selecting an easier origin, not fighting much (although this is less fun), or turning the difficulty down. But, with that the combat also gets overhauled, with some items allowing headshots, shields allowing parries, etc. It adds an element into the game that requires much much more skill rather than spam or magic. Plus, air combos and other combat additions make it really really satisfying and also rewards you with exp or other prizes. Mobs as well can get different "powers" that make it harder to fight but also much more dynamic and fun. Although some particles such as trails, and other particles can clutter your screen easily making it harder to fight.

The modpacks early game can be a bit confusing as it's changed so much from the vanilla gameplay cycle but once you have surpassed that it becomes really fun. the custom world gen and the movement of the custom origins makes exploring very exciting

Some performance issues here and there, have experienced multiple crashes

Very aesthetic world generation and built in shaders, along with custom textures for alot of the items and mobs alot of effort has clearly been put in

Resurvival isn't 100% perfect, there are still some issues - however, it's actively being worked on by people who want to make it the best possible experience. And what is there is some of the most unique fun I've had in a modpack. Rarely does a pack make me continue playing for longer than a week, but this one has held my brain captive because it actually improves upon many of MC's lacking aspects. Combat has more variety with foes to face and also gear to use, and the origins all have their own very unique powers that make combat (and exploration) a blast. You're actively encouraged to explore the world to progress, across as many biomes and structures as you can find, and the owlytrian - my favorite origin - has such a fun progression as you gradually gain better flight abilities via gaining enchanting gems. Combat and exploration are significantly improved, there are many awesome structures to find, end remastered is configured in SUCH a satisfying way, and not to mention the worldgen is GORGEOUS and very very unique (most ive ever screenshotted a pack, so freaking pretty). The sea / sky theme is one that really sets resurvival apart from vanilla, with these two worlds that are at odds with each other in different ways. Also the owlings / illhawks are very cool, and in my opinion much more compelling than the villagers and illagers. This pack is great and is only getting better. Performance does suffer occasionally though, so do be aware when using shaders / natures / explorer compass if you're on a lower end pc. But yeah, 5 stars this pack is excellent.

This pack has potential, the progression overhaul feels fairly balanced and the overall difficulty is defiantly ramped up, i like the origins however i do wish there was more than two not sure if there are plans to add more. The movement with the elytra origin feels great when combined with the new world gen. I did however run into some performance issues mainly stuttering caused by massive cascades, Chunks also stopped loading while exploring which was somewhat game breaking. Overall i would recommend this pack.

Are YOU getting bored of vanilla Minecraft?

Struggling to find new passion for this game you once loved so much, but you don't want to mod it to hell and back?
Well, have I got the modpack for you! Er, Neko has the modpack for you!!!

I genuinely think Resurvival is the best modpack to get back into Minecraft with. Mostly because that was MY experience ages ago when I was just getting back into MC again. My absolute favorite part of Resurvival is how it makes you stick around in the early game a little longer, but not so long it feels like you can't get anywhere.
I love the way it's progression is redesigned. In Resurvival, I've never been too powerful for too long (unless I'm stealing from my friends

I genuinely haven't enjoyed a pack this much in a LONG while! Usually when I download a modpack I modify it a bunch to suit my tastes, but after playing with Resurvival for a while I really like it the way it was designed :) There have been a few very minor bugs I've come across, but the pack dev is very responsive to bug reports and fixes them in no time!

If you've never stepped outside of your comfort zone and tried a pack with a touch of challenge, this is a great stepping stone into getting your butt kicked

Resurvival is a labor of love from Nekomaster and his friends

with the aim of upping the difficulty of default survival, while also rebalancing and tweaking progression.

Players face a new Overworld, one covered in sprawling seas and flying islands, with a slew of new foes, critters and bosses scattered throughout. To survive, players must rely on the powers of one of 2 custom Origins and their wits, in order to scavenge flying islands, abandoned structures, and sunken caverns for resources.

Many customers changes have been made to the Vanilla Progression tree in order to up overall difficulty, such as:

  • Changing the stick crafting recipe to force to forage for sticks
  • Replacing Stone tools with Flint
  • Upgrading low-tier armors and tools is now the only way to craft the next tier of stuff
  • The Nether Portal frame being altered to require a full frame of Reinforced Deepslate (thereby locking it to the Ancient City)
  • End Portals now require 12 unique eyes, which can be found by exploring structures.

Atop all of this, there is a slew of unique content in the pack, like:

  • Two Custom Origins that players get to choose from - The graceful Owlytrians that soar between islands, and the hardy Crablings that dash through the oceans and caves.
  • New Zombie and Skeleton variants, each with unique behaviors and mechanics.
  • Two races of bird-people - The Illihawks and Owligers - now sparsely populate the sky islands.
  • New armor tiers, such as Blackiron, Silver, and Paragon
  • A new sleeping system that speeds up the night cycle based on the percentage of sleeping players, rather than skipping it.
  • New dungeons and boss arenas to find, each with their own rewards and dangers.
  • Hundreds of custom recipes and loot table tweaks.

... I realize at this point that this is starting to sound more like an advertisement than a review, so let me leave off with this:

This a challenging modpack with a great deal of time and care put into it. It may be hard at first, and you'll probably die a few times, but regardless, it is a great way to refresh your survival experience, if you feel like it's lacking challenge or feeling stale.
While the pack can be experienced in singleplayer, it is definitely better as a multiplayer experience, either with a group of your friends, or on the official server (more info on the modpack page) where a friendly community can help to show you the ropes. :)

TLDR: A challenging modpack with a great deal of custom generation, enemies, and new gear to find.
