Overview

This is a somewhat early review as I've only put a few hours into the pack, However I've honestly been having such a good time with the pack I thought I'd put my thoughts out there.

From the start this pack feel closer to the Stardew Valley experience than any other pack I've played in the past, The custom mods that have been created for it to introduce the Sprinklers, Daily Growth, Fertilisers and various other interesting features do an amazing job of adding to the overall immersion of the pack. The selling bin and currency systems work well however I found that running around the world gathering items seemed to provide a better way to make money than actually staying at home and growing crops.

The custom NPC system for the pack is amazingly well done and feels completely different to any other system I've seen in the past, Big points for this.

The use of Journeymap and Feed the beast Quests did feel slightly out of place in the pack compared to the cosy theme of the rest of the pack, There did also seem to be a number of FTB Quests that were redundant and severed little purpose. However the FTB quests that were done well were done REALLY well, The bundle system works in the same way requiring players to gather items to complete them and in turn being rewarded for doing so, This felt really good and gave me something meaningful to work towards.

There were a number of items I came across that had errors in the tooltips or duplicated text displaying which broke immersion slightly. These are however all small issues, I'm yet to encounter any problems I could consider game breaking or worthy of stopping the pack for!

While most definitely not a kitchen sink pack by any means it does at times feel like there is a little more than is needed, 74 pages in emi, a large portion of which could be removed or hidden in that menu to reduce the overwhelming feeling you get when looking through.

Will update this review as time goes on and I experience more of the pack, While this review may seem to contain a lot of negative feedback this remains one of the best feeling modpacks I've played and would recommend it to anyone looking for that Stardew Valley experience!
