I found a hardcore survival server where you only get one life and that is it. If you die you are done so everything feels super serious.
The world is huge so you can run far and try to hide your base. The Overworld is 300000 by 300000 and The End is 50000 by 50000 so there is a lot of space but you still might run into people.
PvP is meant to feel more like old school fights with swords and bows. End crystals and respawn anchors are not allowed for PvP.
Griefing killing and scamming are allowed so you really cannot trust anyone. Cheating hacking and exploits are not allowed so if you win you actually earned it.
ONE LIFE HARDCORE SURVIVAL NO MERCY

This is a survival server that feels like a big tech modpack but you do not need to install any mods. Everything is done with plugins on the server so your game runs normal but you still get deep progression.
The main feature is Slimefun with a bunch of addons. You can build crazy factories launch rockets and unlock all kinds of tech and magic. It feels like old Tekkit or FTB but it works on a normal client.
The world generation is changed a lot. Overworld nether and end all look different with volcano style areas autumn style forests and shattered style islands. There are also towers and ruins that spawn naturally so exploring actually feels cool.
There is an easy land claim system so you can protect your base and builds. The server is made to run with good performance so farms and machines can stay on without killing the server.
The server is in beta so players can suggest ideas and report bugs and the owners listen. There is no pvp no griefing and no hacking or exploits allowed.

This server is called Neopoliticia and it is all about Napoleonic Europe on a giant 1 to 800 scale map. It feels like you are playing inside a huge history project but with Minecraft battles and cool gear from that era.
The thing I noticed right away is that it has tons of weapons and items that fit the Napoleonic theme and all of it runs only on plugins. So you do not need any mods to join which is really nice if you hate messing with files.
The server works on both Java and Bedrock so it is easy to get your friends on no matter what they play on. They said the server just started so it is a really good time to hop in and try to make a name for yourself before everything is claimed.
From what I can tell the whole point is to fight in wars conquer land and build your own legacy on this huge Europe map with custom gear and no extra client stuff.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
