It's a combination of all the necessary things to create the best experience.
As expected, the first version might have some bugs, so feel free to share them in the discord server, so they can be fixed in the next versions.

You can also suggest new mods or mechanics, and they might end up in the next version!
You make your own story, so find your purpose in the dark fantasy...

NOTES:

Distant horizons is DISABLED by default, it's you're choice if you want to enable it, the reason of it being disabled is the incompatibility with the Bliss Shader, if you don't want to use the bliss shader, then ENABLE distant horizons!

Allocating 6-8 GB of ram is enough for this modpack to run, allocating more memory could cause issues.

If you want to achieve a more accurate look to the dark fantasy style, you can configure complementary shaders or bliss shader, the fog and lighting are key aspects for the dark fantasy look, so play with them and get your best combination!

THIS IS A HEAVY AND DEMANDING MODPACK
