This post outlines a modpack request centered around GregTech New Horizons (GTNH). The focus will be on a balanced, challenging, and engaging experience, avoiding extreme difficulty or overly grindy aspects often associated with GTNH. The goal is to create a compelling progression that rewards player effort without overwhelming them.

Core Modpack Focus: GregTech New Horizons

The core of this modpack will be GTNH, providing the foundation for technological progression and resource management. We will avoid overwhelming the player with an excessive number of mods that detract from the core GTNH experience. The intention is to enhance, not replace, GTNH's core gameplay loop.

Desired Mod Additions (Selective & Purposeful)

Rather than a sprawling list of mods, the additions will be carefully chosen to complement GTNH's strengths while addressing potential weaknesses or adding interesting new dimensions. This includes:

• Quality of Life Mods: Mods that improve user experience without fundamentally altering GTNH's mechanics, such as improved inventory management or better sorting systems. These should be carefully curated to avoid conflicts or excessive simplification of the GTNH experience.

• Automation & Logistics: Mods supporting advanced automation and logistical systems will be included to streamline processes without trivializing the technological challenges present in GTNH. Focus will be on realistic and challenging automation solutions rather than overpowered methods.

• Exploration & Discovery: Limited exploration mods could be incorporated, introducing new biomes or resources that integrate seamlessly with GTNH's tech tree. This adds an element of discovery without overshadowing the technological progression.

• Minimal Cosmetic Mods: A few carefully selected cosmetic mods can enhance visual appeal without affecting core gameplay.

Mods to Exclude

This modpack will explicitly avoid mods that:

• Overly simplify GTNH: The intention is not to make GTNH easier, but to make it more engaging and enjoyable.
• Introduce conflicting mechanics: Mods that create incompatibility or conflict with GTNH’s internal systems will be excluded.
• Significantly alter the tech tree: The core tech tree progression of GTNH should remain largely intact.
• Introduce excessive grind: While some grind is expected in GTNH, the modpack will strive to create a balanced and rewarding experience.

Overall Tone and Difficulty

The desired tone is challenging but rewarding. The difficulty should encourage player engagement and problem-solving without becoming overly frustrating or tedious. The focus remains on the inherent challenges of progressing through GTNH's complex tech tree, enhanced by carefully selected supporting mods.

Conclusion: A Refined GTNH Experience

This request aims to create a focused and refined GTNH experience. The goal is to enhance and complement the base game, delivering a challenging yet rewarding gameplay journey for players who appreciate the complexity and depth of GregTech New Horizons, but seek a more balanced and enjoyable playthrough.
