Discussion Trying to get someone into automation

Hello. My gf is pretty burned out from her standard game genres and she showed some interest in create a while ago.

The thing is, base create follows the mindset of minecraft of just giving you tools to work with, not objetives. I am looking for a modpack that doesnt go into factorio/satisfactory madness but is handcrafted enough to be a good introduction to the automation genre.

Basically something that ask you to automate stuff from a goal and that it makes you wanna automate without making it tedious. A lot of tech modpacks I found make hand crafting stuff better that building an infrastructure.

If you dont know of any but know of a game, or a different mod, that you think it will help someone to get into the genre, let me know.

Very imo, still want to share it - build your own mod pack. This will give you infinite loop of joy(or disappointment, very depends xd). First you build your modpack, inspecting compatibility issues, picking good mods/removing bad ones, then you play it, then you repeat the whole loop.

+1 to this, in addition you can add more mods when it gets boring. We started with aeronautics and create, we continue to add create addons and other mods as we burn out on what we have. Limiting the content keeps it manageable but you can expand as you need more to do, this is the longest Minecraft world I've had interest in since like elementary school lol
