Description
You find a free version of minecraft on a russian forum distributed by a user named "CIPHER", and decide to download it. Your anti-virus alerts you, but you ignore it.After booting up the game, you find out... Everything is wrong. The title screen is scrambled and messed up, texts are weirdly changed, and the calming, chill music you would usually hear in the title screen is replaced with eerie noises and unnerving ambiences.
You think if downloading this was a good idea, yet you still carry on. You hover over what you think is the singleplayer button, now saying "alone" instead of "Singleplayer", and you see russian text below your cursor that you cant read.
You create a world, and after you load into the world, the minecraft fog is instead way thicker than it normally should be. You've never owned minecraft and only saw it from media such as videos and images, so you only thought that you were misremembering how the normal minecraft fog should look like.
After deciding to continue further, with the world feeling more unnervingly off the more you play, you find a structure made out of cobblestone that you didn't build, but only assume it to be apart of the game.
Your anti-virus alerts you again, and you ignore it for the second time.
After building your first house, being a small wooden house, you go outside to see what you thought was a player in the distant fog. You could barely see anything, so you weren't entirely sure if it really was a player, which then you make the decision to walk up to the supposed player.
After walking up to it, it seems like there wasn't anything there, so you go back to your house.
After opening the door to your house to get back in, you start hearing footsteps, getting louder and louder, and faster and faster. You look behind you to see what seems like a player with a steve skin, which runs up to your face and your computer instantly freezes, then shuts off.
You start to worry what just happened, and you think again if it was a good idea to download this. You boot up your computer after it had just shut off, to see your computer has been infected with a deadly computer ransomware.
! WARNING !
This modpack does NOT contain a ransomware or any other type of virus, even if it is said in the about section. The ransomware part of the story/lore in the about section is only for the story/lore, it is NOT entirely truthful.
This is also NOT an actual "Free Version" of minecraft. Similar to the ransomware part of the story/lore in the about section, it is only for the story/lore and is NOT entirely truthful.
