One of the reasons behind Minecraft's insane popularity is that the game is super easy to mod and almost all Minecraft mods are free. While the usual mods just modify the graphics or add new nobs and the like, there are some more ambitious mobs that add quests and new mechanics.

On other hand, it's a Vanilla+ mod pack that will enhance your 'close-to-vanilla' gameplay and adds some new features(like new NPCs that will work for you, new terrain features, biomes, mineshafts, decorations(see features list for details)) to explore and interact with, so you won't be overwhelmed with a lot of new and unusual stuff.

You will find different small and big additions in almost every aspect of the game: extra building blocks for the most sophisticated architects, extra food, extra seeds and bees, furniture and windows. And if you're tired of crafting you can go explore the world around you and find a lot of secret hidden features and structures(and maybe dimensions?). Despite the fact that the pack is focused on technology mods, exploration is still a part of the game.
4. Medieval Minecraft
Medieval Minecraft will bring your Minecraft experience back to the early ages of gaming with its medieval settings, including 6 new dimensions alongside new bosses. However, the most unique part is probably the new updated thirst and stamina system. This allows players to have a much more realistic experience.

5. RLCraft
RLCraft is a Minecraft modpack consisting of approximately 169 separate mods that have been bundled and tweaked to create a challenging Minecraft fantasy world.

While trying to survive in the world you'll fight dragons, explore castles, plunder dungeons, utilize skill trees, and tinker with new crafting systems. If that wasn’t enough, most of the traditional mechanics of vanilla Minecraft have been extensively modified.
It has continued to be one of the most popular modpacks for Minecraft thanks to the immense challenge it brings. However, the modpack has gone through a major update within the last year or so, which means returning players might be confused by certain mechanics and features
6. BlockFront
BlockFront is a Minecraft modpack that immerses the player in a unique World War 2-styled combat experience. Players will be able to experience one of the world's most significant conflicts.
With close-quarters battles in iconic WWII environments, pick your class, hold the front line, flank the enemy, and command your own squad. The goal is to complete missions, destroy enemies' interest points and work your way toward the rank of General. There is also multiplayer online matchmaking and multiple maps to pick from.
7. Rebirth of the Night (RotN)
Inspired by Terraria, 7 Days to Die, and more, Rebirth of the Night is a Minecraft 1.12.2 modpack with its own progression system, lore, mechanics, and art. It's built with the idea of remembering the central themes of what made Minecraft enjoyable and expanding them in every way, increasing the overall risk and reward as you progress.
The design philosophy of this modpack is to create an experience where adventure, conquest, progression and survival are all intertwined. This pack is built upon the goal of keeping Minecraft close to the original concept of survival, while also completely re-imagining other gameplay mechanics. A recurring theme in this pack is that your actions have consequences: you are playing in a living, breathing world that will react to your actions.
Mobs will mine and build to get to you, combat is greatly expanded upon, danger and dread are amplified, seasons change, and every world-changing event you cause has repercussions... Your skills in all aspects of gameplay will be tested, but in a way that supports many different play styles.
8. New Game
The objective of New Game is none other than to expand the possibilities of the games without actually breaking the "vanilla" gaming experience. To do this, all the built-in mods will follow the default Minecraft theme, and the changes will be perfectly compatible with the style of the game.
It is an ideal modpack for all those players who want to expand the number of biomes, structures, creatures, dimensions, or any other branch of Minecraft, but without any of the mods adding any content out of the "normal", something desired by many players.
In addition, it is available in three different versions (small, medium and large), so that players with a worse device can also make use of this fabulous modpack.
9. Craft to Exile [Dissonance]
Craft to Exile [Dissonance] is a 1.15.2 Forge modpack designed around exploration. Mods in Craft to Exile [Dissonance] aim to enhance the players' experience with Mine and Slash - a thorough ARPG mod dedicated to progression. Mine and Slash draws inspiration from popular action RPGs such as Diablo and Path of Exile.
10. World of Dragons II
World of Dragons II Modpack is rather unorthodox compared to other Dragon-inspired Mods as it also integrates the two opposite sides of prowess, Science and Magic. During the conflict of the two pinnacles of prowess, Dragons rose to become an imminent threat that requires both sides to work together in order to strike them down.
So with World of Dragons, you’re dropped into a world where not only do dragons dominate the sky, but they also power two technology trees that will literally let you forge your own adventure. Add some amazing multiplayer options into the mix, and you get the definitive Minecraft dragon-themed experience. Absolutely a must-try. The further players travel from spawn, the more powerful dragons and regular foes will become, yet, players will also be able to loot strong artifacts and equipment from these defeated foes if they somehow managed to succeed.
