+====== Better than Adventure ======
+**Better than Adventure** is a modded version of [[lb:Minecraft]] which treats itself as a de-facto fork. It forks off of Minecraft Beta 1.7.3. Though it makes a number of changes which makes it feel very different from modern Minecraft.
+===== Review =====
+I'll be honest: not really into it. This is definitely a me thing though, as the aspect I dislike about Minecraft the most is the “aimless sandbox” part. BtA kinda goes all-in on that specific part of the game so, naturally, this appeals to me a little less.
+Though, plot twist, that's not really the case. I'm not 100% sure why, but I find the //idea// of playing BtA more pleasant than any modern version of Minecraft. I think it's because there is so little to do (as compared to modern Minecraft) that it's less overwhelming.
+BtA also has many additions which I think are net positives and really raise questions about why they're not in vanilla Minecraft. Dyed wood and chests for one. Though the biggest draw is Photo Mode...which re-introduces the isometric screenshot feature from the earliest versions of the game...only better.\\
+Actually, the above is not the full story: photo mode is definitely one of the big reasons I'd like to play this over vanilla Minecraft. Though if it's ported to vanilla...that's it.
+The biggest disadvantage that BtA has over vanilla is that it doesn't use the client/server approach to Singleplayer that vanilla has. This means that, unlike in vanilla, it's significantly more difficult to play multiplayer...as you have to set up a dedicated server. In vanilla, you can just install Essentials and you're good to go.
