A debilitating condition affecting individuals who crumble under the sheer complexity of tech mods in Minecraft modpacks. Symptoms include brain shutdown, uncontrollable whining about "it's too confusing", and an inability to progress beyond punching trees. Severe cases may result in rage-quitting and retreating to vanilla Minecraft.
I tried introducing Archie to a modpack with Applied Energistics, but his Modpack Paralysis Syndrome kicked in, and he started hyperventilating over storage before singing the Pokemon theme song.

Get the Modpack Paralysis Syndrome mug.The phenomenon occurs when multiple defenders are in position to challenge an attacking player, but due to hesitation, miscommunication, or uncertainty about responsibility, none of them step up to engage. As a result, the attacker faces less resistance than expected, often gaining space or time to advance. This defensive lapse is driven by a diffusion of responsibility, where each defender assumes another will take action, leading to collective inaction.
It was pressing paralysis at its finest, three defenders doing the ‘after you, sir’ routine while the striker waltzed through like he owned the place.
