# Minecraft: Java Edition – Trailier Tales
\nAfter the Wild Update controversy passed, Trails & Tales came along and effectively accomplished the same thing. Although it didn’t overpromise, it felt as though it had under-delivered on the content side of things.
\nWe’re back once again to hopefully remedy this, with Trailier Tales!<\/p>\n
**DISCLAIMER**
\nDo not use this mod in attempt to harass Mojang. They are hard workers and know what’s best for their game; We’re simply adding and changing features as we see fit.<\/p>\n
