What is Depixel 1.15?

Is Depixel 1.15 fun to use?
Depixel 1.15 is an overall great resource pack if you love the regular Minecraft experience but want something that will inject a bit of new life into the game’s visuals. Safe to say, if you’ve been a fan of Depixel up until this point, Depixel 1.15 will not disappoint.
Textures still retain their unique identifiers in this pack, so you won’t have to worry about the inevitable ‘What block is that?’ question you get with some resource packs. Blocks like the leaves blocks look fantastic in this pack as the added resolution allows for much more definition between individual leaves on the texture image. I’m less of a fan of blocks like logs and cobblestone. Unfortunately the added pixel space for the textures just comes across as visually-crowded.
I much prefer more minimalist and intentional designs that make use of a limited amount of workspace. These textures remind me more of games from the 90s rather than a modern game with a unique art style.
Some choices in the pack are a little bit confusing, and odd design choices leave certain blocks looking worse than their default inspirations. Take for example the default Steve skin. Rather than the simple but instantly recognisable version we all know, we now have a bizarre faux-realistic version that looks kind of…creepy. Though some players might enjoy the boost in realism on its own merit, so this gripe might depend on personal preference.
If you love Minecraft’s original art style but are after something that will inject some new life into your Minecraft playthroughs, you have to give Depixel 1.15 a try. With its own unique personality combined with Minecraft’s undeniable charm, this resource pack is a match made in heaven for the aesthetic-conscious vanilla player.
