gollark: I'm currently on, anyway, but I'm only getting 20FPS, which is somewhat unpleasant.
gollark: I think the idea is that it makes you consider other stuff in the early game.
gollark: I'm not entirely happy about the progression relying on EvilCraft, but I guess there's always *one* mod to dislike in linear progression.
gollark: I'll see how it performs and come on at some point.
gollark: See, we need documentation for all these changes.
