I had the idea of a thread for people to talk about memorable first experiences with different modpacks. I will start with my Magic World 2 I atarted a few minutes ago:
Presented by Greentext!

My first experience with Technic (the old old one - with Redpower and TC2 in it)

-Generate world
-Know what to do cause I watch Youtube vids
-Go into cave
-Mine for several hours
-Make nether portal and Philosopher's Stone
-Make trans table
-Explore for long time
-Find taint biome and explore taint biome
-Subsequently ambushed by a pack of corrupt sheep
-Rageqquit while screaming

Fin.

Sees new modpack- seems ok.
  • Wait an hour for pack to download. (drink coffee, tinker in my BTW world)
  • Wait an hour for pack to boot up (more coffee, look at a few mod wikis)
  • Set GUI size to normal again. Set controls AGAIN!
  • Start new world.
  • Get horrendous eye bleeding as every mod adds its own HUD display.
  • Close MC
  • Remove all excessive mod HUD related stupidity.
  • Tinker with config files to hide more of this useless information.
  • Reboot, wait another hour (just another cup, break into another pack of choccy biscuits)
  • Configure remaining in game options to remove more HUD clutter.
  • Start playing.
  • Minecraft crashes.
