LOTR Mod doesn't use a whole lot of Vanilla stuff anyways, and most "cool" stuff from newer versions would not even exist/be obtainable in Middle Earth. And as Bottercot pointed out above, LOTR Mod already adds most cool things that minecraft added in 1.8-1.13. Then there's compatability. I myself have never had forge work successfully with any version above 1.8. 1.7 is the tried and true version for mods, which is most likely why most poular mods are still using 1.7.10.

That's just my opinion. YES. FINALLY SOMEONE GETS ME!!! I keep saying this all the time: I do not play Minecraft. I don't even like Minecraft. I play LOTR Mod.

I feel the same, I’m pretty sure many people feel the same way. Minecraft is not a good game. The LotR Mod, in combination with MC, is.
