Descent into the Realm, Forsaken
Players who want a survival challenge with a dark story can install Descent into the Realm, Forsaken, a NeoForge magic mod that adds custom weapons, a seasonal system and a boss progression.
What it does
The mod adds a survival experience set in a surrounding world where the player must fight to earn freedom from overseen entities that cannot be understood. Its progression covers more than 25 new weapons, each with a distinct function, a six-stage seasonal system that affects farming and other effects across the whole game, and a hidden story and lore. A single new boss sits in the main game, and a large serpent named Banish Aanx Kharothyice guards the one biome currently added.
Culinary parts include longer cooking tasks with new soups and dishes that inflict different effects, along with a few reworks to existing food. Three new creatures and many materials extend the progression, and personal progression pathways allow different ways of playing. Descent into the Realm, Forsaken is a NeoForge mod for 26.1.2 and 1.21.8 that runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.
