Vanilla, But Better (VBB)

A true vanilla+?
Most kitchen-sink modpacks add so much content that the game barely feels like Minecraft anymore. New ores, new dimensions, new tech trees… it gets overwhelming fast.
This modpack takes a different approach
My goal is simple: - ✔️ Keep Minecraft feeling like Minecraft - ✔️ Add depth, discovery, and atmosphere - ✔️ Enhance the experience without replacing it
If you love playing vanilla but wish it had a few more milestones, richer exploration, better atmosphere, and smoother quality-of-life features, I made this pack for you.
