Increases difficulty by slowing down the early stage progression with flint tools and cast iron. No tree punching. Block hardness increase.
Minecraft's early progression feels too rushed to me, punch wood > wooden pickaxe (breaks 3 stones and throws it away) > stone pickaxe > already have access to iron.
Primity makes you stay in the early stages for a longer time with Flint Tools and Cast Iron so you can really appreciate each tool level.
Even before being able to make a crafting table, I'll have to find some flint and craft a stone-level Flint Axe to be able to break logs.
Creating iron on a Blast Furnace now feels like an accomplishment by having to smelt Cast Iron first, making copper tools and armor have a special place in the progression.
Logs will only drop if you break it with an axe.
Can be disabled in the mod options.
To have access to wood, primitive tool parts can be crafted with flint.
Flint tools are as good as stone tools, flintstones are stones after all.
Disables Wooden and Stone tools, causing blocks broken by them to not drop items. (Can be configured in the mod options)
Adds Cast Iron Ingot, Nugget and Block.
Raw Iron and Iron Ores will be converted into Cast Iron Ingot if smelted on a normal furnace. To be able to smelt Raw Iron directly into Iron Ingots, you will need a Blast Furnace.
Cast Iron Ingot can be smelted into Iron Nuggets. Cast Iron items are used as a substitute for Iron in some recipes. (Example: Blocks that have iron in darker colors, such as, cauldrons and chains.)
Additionally, Raw Gold and Gold Ores will only give a nugget when smelted on a normal furnace.
Increases the hardness of blocks, making them take 2x the normal time to break.
Can be configured or reset to vanilla values in the mod options.
Advancements and the recipe book will show you what you need to do.

Tip: Finding a village with the right blocks or looting structures will help speed up this process.
