FoolCraft 3 is a follow up to the original FoolCraft, it's for Minecraft 1.12.2, and is aimed at having as much fun as freakin' possible, while maintaining a progressive Minecraft experience. It is the pack used by the official FoolCraft server found on YouTube and Twitch. Mods like Vein-miner, Inventory Pets & Chance Cubes makes your play through light weight and fun, whilst FoolCraft offers depth by having heavy tech mods such as Ender IO and Thermal Expansion, as well as magical mods such as Botania. FoolCraft guarantees you to have a great time! ##Minimal 6GB and maximum 8GB of ram allocated needed to run the pack smooth

Foolcraft 3 disappoints #324

I only had 2 ways to give feedback, bug report and feature request. Since I want to report something that isn't working as expected, but don't want to suggest a new feature, bug report was my only option. I would have given feedback in a forum thread instead, but sadly this is the only channel you provide.

Foolcraft 3 is very disappointing. I played Foolcraft 1 / 2 and those were actually packs which were "aimed at having as much fun as freakin' possible". Foolcraft 3 on the other side left out many of the fun mods from its predecessors (no Hermitrons = no easy access to 'backpacks' and a lot less incentive to explore), and also raised the difficulty level without any good reason. Dying more often while a lot of good stuff is missing is in no way more fun. Getting shot in the face by a gun wielding skeleton is not fun. Burning to death from just slightly touching lava also seems a lot easier now (no idea if that was just accidential or if something was changed). I again and again thought "uh, maybe the fun starts a bit later". Then I found a dungeon. Without lootbags it's not very entertaining, but at least there were some chests. Then I found a TNT tripwired chest. You find that funny? Well, then I hope you enjoy playing your own pack. It's a sad way to end this series. I'm out.

got to hardly disagree on that - theres a lot of fun stuff in here and i prefer the less popcorn kino way of playing, Sure theres one or two buggers in the pack but most of the mods are quite nice. If u want to play it in popcorn style u allways have the option to play in creative :)

Also, there’s a trapped chest in almost every dungeon on the creeper level. #blameRLD. Has nothing to do with foolcraft.

This is not Foolcraft anymore. It's fine to make a modpack that is harder than Foolcraft, but you shouldn't name it Foolcraft then. Disappointing expectations is the worst you can do. Regarding trapped chests: I looted plenty of dungeons in Foolcraft 1/2, never had a trapped chest explode in my face. It is the responsibility of the pack to (constantly) deliver what they promise. Foolcraft 3 doesn't do that.

I'm having fun with FoolCraft 3 exactly because you have to achieve things, but at the same time, there is no grind - if you can make something manually, you can (or pretty close to) automate it. There is no "one way to farm everything" like fluid cows, mystical agriculture or lootbags. And because you also have to gradually progress in this pack.

But that's just opinions. I'm not trying to belittle OP's opinion, but I'd like to show, that there is an opposite one.
