Minecraft Expedition – Ep. 1: A New Journey Begins! | Minecraft Modded Survival Let’s Play

Also probably greatly in June please not a hungry node right now hey guys Wells Knight here and welcome to a brand new series welcome to expedition as many of you know I’ve been gone for about a month and this is what I have been working on in my free time

Brand-new mod pack and I am really excited for it so let’s go ahead and create a new world we will call it expedition let’s play we’re going to make the world type realistic alpha this is very important if you want to play along I’m going to allow cheats just in

Case something breaks and for a seed I’m just gonna do wells night gaming just like that so if you want to play along there’s the seed make sure you choose realistic alpha and that is it let’s go ahead and load it into the world and

I’ll be back with you in just a sec alright guys here we are so the first thing that you’re going to notice is that you start with stuff this is a mod pack that is very much built around exploration and I wanted you to be able

To explore right off the bat rather than spending the first day or two doing nothing but just gathering enough stone and wool and stuff that you can survive so you start with some real basic tools and you start with this wooden paxil which is basically a pick and axe and a

Shovel all in one you start with a little bit of food you start with some torches a sleeping bag and a backpack and that way you can get right to exploring rather than just grinding for resources instantly I wanted you to be able to kind of explore and find the

Perfect location to set up your base because that’s what this pack is all about is kind of freedom I guess would be the best way to put it there’s a lot of incentives to explore you’ll find all sorts of really cool stuff out in the world but then you’ll also find that

There’s a lot to do if you don’t really want to explore as well and we’ll get into a lot of that stuff as this series progresses but for now let’s get some real basic tools going tinkers construct is not in this mod pack there is no tinker’s and the reason for that

Is that as much as I love tinker’s and I think it’s a great mod and it really is it’s one of my favourite mods in fact whenever you have tinker’s you pretty much only use tinker’s for tools what’s the last time that you played tinker’s and used say the pickaxe from thumb

Craft or for something from Bo Tonya or whatever it may be it’s just not really a common thing so I decided to go no tinker’s in this mod back but instead I’ve replaced it with several different mods that kind of make up for not having

It am I getting attacked oh hello um go away leave leave me alone whoo that was an end that’s from like a Knights mobs which is in this mod back and will probably cause us to jump at least a couple times throughout the course of this series so first and foremost let’s

Go make a crafting table we’re going to turn that into a just another crafting bench crafting table which is basically like the table from tinker’s it will keep the inventory of whatever you put in it so for example I walk away the sticks don’t fall out all that good

Stuff and then we’re going to go ahead and make ourselves some real basic tools we’re going to make ourselves this this is a new tool this is the stone lumber axe and we’ll get to using that in a second here and that should be good for

Now so the lumber axe will let you do is it will let you chop down a whole tree all at once and it comes in all the standard tool variants you know wood stone iron etc and it also comes in variants added by some of the other

Alloys and metals in the mod pack really a useful tool to have especially early in the game takes a lot of the grind out of it now I’m gonna go ahead and start exploring a little bit we’re gonna see I really don’t want to live in a snow

Biome um I get enough snow in Wisconsin and I don’t want to be reminded of that so I’m gonna head off into the world a little bit and maybe you know what let’s go west let’s go west instead it looks like there’s a lot of snow over here too

East so I’m gonna head that way instead but guys I’m gonna explore a little bit and I’ll be back with you in just a little while all right guys I am back I have been going for quite a while now and I still have not reached the end of

The snow although it looks like the end is in sight finally man that was a lot of snow and I am very glad to see the end of it one thing that I wanted to do before I forget is I wanted to give a huge thank

You to is call 85 and his whole development team for well a lot of stuff they recently released their own mod pack survival stories 3 it came out about a month ago and I was playing that while I was gone and watching iskills videos on it uh and that was really kind

Of my inspiration for this whole mod pack and this concept so I do want to give a huge thank you to them they also iskele iskills the man I’ll tell you he was also kind enough to let me make use of some of his world generation scripts

And settings and let’s not fall in the quicksand oh boy that was close you this will kill you I’ll show you see you dig that and see how it all just fades in makes it pretty much impossible to get out if you’re stuck in that this

Early in the game yeah that would not be a good way to start anyway but Isco was kind enough to let me make use of a pretty good amount of the work that he’d done and if you’re playing survival stories and then playing this you will definitely notice some similarities also

Noticed a lot of very big differences as well but there’s definitely some similarities and that also means that if you enjoy this mod pack and series you will also probably greatly in June please not a hungry node right now Oh hoo hoo oh that was close oh that was

The almost that was almost our first death right there that hungry node almost got the better of me whoo oh wow okay as I was saying if you really enjoy this mod pack in series that means you that you will also probably really enjoy is skulls mod pack

His series on it so I’ll definitely check that out if you have not already done so I highly recommend it it’s really good and extremely entertaining but anyway looks like we’re finally out of the snow and this this wouldn’t be a terrible place to live but I did the

Grass isn’t exactly very green I like to I like to have some kind of lush green grass and I mean just look at journey map look at the map up in the corner this is really not lush and green um so I’m gonna keep looking but guys I’m

Gonna do a little more exploring I think I’m gonna sleep the night away as well in this sleeping bag that you start with let’s just sleep but not set your spawn which is really useful but anyway I’m gonna explore some more I’ll be back with you in a little while alright guys

I am back and I think I found a location that I actually like but I definitely want to get rid of this lava as you can see from some of the critters that are running around here we do have like a tight mobs in this mod pack and there’s

One of them that spawns in the lava that’s quite nasty so I want to plug that hole and get rid of that lava to prevent those things from spawning I think they’re called like ‘if resource um ‘then like that i don’t remember the exact name off the top my head but

Either way they’re really nasty they’re like little flying imp things that shoot fireballs at you and let you on fire and basically kill you so we’re going to avoid those if at all possible let’s go ahead and i mean look at this this is a beautiful location kind of right in the

Valley here right on the lake i thought i was going to have to look for a lot longer before i found something and that i think is a village well that pretty much seals that i think we found the place where we are going to live let’s

Go take a look at that village and see if there’s anything cool over there map says it’s a reasonably sized village i don’t know if we’re gonna find all in there’s a little cave system down here yeah this is perfect this is a perfect spot the grass isn’t quite as green as

I’d like it to be but still this is a great spot to start out we have this full Agri craft thing going here that’s pretty useful is there a blacksmith is there a blacksmith yes yes there is so check this out as I said or at least I think I

Said custom chests lute although all the chests loot in the game has been customized so when you open a chest you’re going to find all sorts of good stuff this was actually a pretty crappy chest I must say little disappointed but that’s okay we did get one ndm ingot we

Got a little bit of gold a little bit of iron that’ll at least help us get started um I think I’m going to loot these furnaces too just because I’m going to need them eventually uh I jump up there yeah there we go we’ll grab these these are from aura

Cascade if you’re familiar with my banished series you will probably recognize these this is a really cool mod that I’ve really kind of fallen in love with lets you do all sorts of really cool stuff and once you kind of figure out how it works it’s really a

Fun mod to play around with and do cool stuff in you are having a bad day aren’t you he’s trapped in the quicksand that’s really unfortunate for him oh well no sympathy hello railcraft let’s go take a look at that as well I’ve even customized the chest flute

That you’ll find in the rail craft houses so we’ll grab this rolling machine I’ll go to the steam engine some might be useful for some real basic RF and there we go that’s what I’m talking about look at this so we found some good stuff right off the bat we found twelve

Rock crusher rock crusher blocks which is basically the amount you need to make that full multi block we found some other stuff I don’t really need the rails at the moment but I will take the coal coke because it’s basically better coal lets you cook more stuff with it

And lasts longer in the furnace I will loot all the books use that lumber axe to full advantage so that’s all good yeah we found some really good stuff and there’s a witchery a circle over here too is this I think this is another library right yeah look

At that man that’s actually a pretty good start this is a great find this early in the game and we should be able to get some farming going yeah I think this is it guys this is where we’re going to be living and oh look at that

Diamond Zane that is pretty much the best thing we could have found this early that is a pick shovel and hammer all in one and it’s basically like having that three diamond tools and we might actually have enough books if I can find like one more library or a

Little bit of sugarcane and some leather or you know if I can find like four more books we’ll have enough to fully enchant stuff once we have the levels for it of course but yeah this is a great little village and I think what we’re gonna do

Now is we’re gonna go ahead and pitch our house right in here somewhere I don’t think I want to live right in the village I think I want to live in that that area over here kind of between the two hills oh speaking of finding more books thank

You we have books and the villagers are dropping emeralds that’s very nice of them kind of clumsy of them I certainly would not be I would be safeguarding my emeralds a little bit more than they are but you know what it’s their emerald that I’m just going to steal them so

It’s okay um let’s see we’ll also take a look through those actually I’ll take a look through these between episodes you can find some really good seeds in here some things that’ll really kind of help you get a jumpstart on agriculture because we do have agro craft in here

And we also have magical crops as well and that should help in a lot of ways and I think that’s where the lava was um guys I think you lit the hillside on fire that’s really strange color for lava for fire though that’s like oh this is this is

Not regular fire this is this is uh is this the fire from the e frites because that’s kind of what it looks like I’m gonna try and fight it off and get rid of it because I would really like to have you know some grass and stuff left

Please stop destroying all my land it’s so dangerous this is what happens when random Lava Falls oh if it destroys the village that would be so bad we need to stop it before it destroys the village I’m going to try and fight this fire

Guys and I will be back with you in a little bit all right guys I think I got this stuff over there dealt with but it’s heading straight for the village and I really don’t want the village to burn so we’re going to do what we can to

Kind of stem the tide there we go go wait go wait go away bad fire bad fire I feel like a firefighter right now I should get I should get like a firefighter hat or something do we get it all okay oh when it’s burning up

There too all right I think the village is safe mission accomplished I think we’re good I’m going to take these berries so I can munch on them later because they’re actually a pretty good source of food you eat them really fast but the village appears to be safe

For now I don’t think the fires going to spread much farther this way I think I got it so at this point all we really need to do is make our house and what we can do is you start with these two things right here an instant wooden

House block and an instant wooden wand and since I’ve decided now that this is where I want to live I’m just going to put down my house I think I’ll put it like right about there and then we just right-click it with the wand and tada we

Have a house look at that tell me that’s not awesome Andi comes with a bed and some furnaces and chests and you can set your spawn and there we have it guys so we have our house I do want to clean this up a little bit I’d like to not have water

Directly out my front door because that’s never fun so let’s just let’s just do something like this I’ll maybe bring that over and that one over a little bit in fact let’s just I’m going to peel this I’m going to want to peel this whole thing back a little bit more

Because I want the house right about where it is but I don’t want the land basically in the house I want to have a little bit of space around the sides so we’ll just kind of patch this up as best we can hello zombie go away leave me alone thank you

And we’ll just kind of do that I guess for now that should be fine okay so there we go guys I think that’s a pretty good start and a great place to go ahead and end this episode between episodes I’m going to kind of clean this

Hillside up a little bit um and then I think we’ll be good to really get going here so guys if you enjoyed this video don’t forget to like subscribe and leave me a comment if you want to play along you’ll be able to find the mod pack on
