There's a pretty big difference between HD textures done right (Omniwrench, Mekanism), and HD textures that just stick out obnoxiously (AM2). Saying that they don't fit in with normal MC would definitely be incorrect, because frankly they just don't fit in with ANYTHING and are painful to look at.

He wouldn't like me either.
I find a random high-def textures (or worse non-voxel 3D models) very immersion breaking.
Its not the high-definition itself, its the change in definition/style that becomes very distracting.
(I've used high def texture packs a fair bit- but they must be a FULL pack so everything's in high def)
On their own- the random high-def textures & non-voxel models [think powersuits] are not that bad. They can look pretty cool outside of MC.Dropping it into a voxel, pixelated environment makes it ugly.
It's like booting up GTA V and finding all the animals/people are minecraft models- it'll be a mess.
I guess we could make a resource pack to turn all the textures into 16x16. But it's harder then it looks, making textures for my own mod has looked terrible ugly (no seriously, it looks like a five year-old made it, you don't want to see it 
)

Might just borrow some item sprites from mario, pokemon, zelda ect...
But thats the easy side, I don't think they'll appreciate us rebuilding the powersuit models.
I don't want to start a big argument, but I don't find wolf torture machines "charming"
Well I say charming in the sense that it has character to it that you don't find in GregTech.
It's an acquired taste, I'll give you that, but it's a damn sight more appealing than most of the calculated mods out there.[DOUBLEPOST=1383481631][/DOUBLEPOST]
Minecraft's an ugly game. Still a good game though.
Since they are mods, and not a part of the actual game, I don't think people can demand for the textures to be changed. That's where it irks me, to be more clear.

Just vanilla fishing in general.
Too much time for too little reward, 1.7 feels very artificial and does nothing for the actual gameplay.
And also this 'every tool must be enchantable' ideology- it kinda ruins the magic of enchanting.
Backups.... backups man.
Also keeps notes often you can recover from such things quicker if you know what steps to go through the 2nd time.
