Sure the edges might be a little jagged and textures a little crunchy, but that just makes it all feel more perfect. This is one of the more massive texture overhauls but boy is it faithful. If the Atari was just a bit before your time but memories of the original Super Mario Bros and Castlevania speak to you, then the Retro NES pack will instantly bring a smile to your face. Retro fans should definitely give this one a look. In most games that would be a negative, but when paired with Minecraft’s already basic design it just feels right. All the colors and textures are bright, clear, and simple. On the opposite end of the spectrum, if you’d prefer your game to look more like what an Atari game might be like in 3D, the Bare Bones pack is a delightful experience. This makes it a perfect option if, in the 10 or so years since the game launched, you’ve upgraded your rig and monitor and just want the game to keep up visually without actually changing anything. While you might not see any difference between this pack and traditional Minecraft at first glance, it actually doubles the resolution of the base game’s textures. Before getting into any of the crazier texture packs out there, why not check out one that aims to be as faithful to what the original game set out to be? After all, this is one of the most popular packs out there.
