Modded Minecraft has a lawn base problem. This video is a video essay on what a lawn base is, how it's come about and whether this can be stopped. It's a reflection of building in modded Minecraft as a whole and is not meant to attack anyone for building a lawn base.

The biggest focus on the video for me is goal-driven modpacks and people's attitudes to that. Certain people respond better to goals and I do to! But I think when you focus purely on a goal, you can lose that creative spark of problem solving or building that Minecraft is all about and just go for the "most efficient" methods.

Sieveless will return soon don't worry, I just wanted to try to make something completely different as a love letter to modded Minecraft. I don't want this channel to just be the "Sieveless" channel so expect more experimental videos like this in the future!

Also I made 2 music pieces for this video, I might do a bit more of that if people are interested in the future :)
