Hello, this is zeldafreak342 and this is The Beginners Guide to Minecraft. Now if you are just starting out, the first thing you need to do is chop some wood logs. So go find a tree (any tree of your choice) and make some wood planks with the logs you get from the tree. Next, make a crafting table. The Crafting table is the single MOST important block in minecraft! So now that you have your table, make some sticks.Then make some tools with those sticks. These will be a essential part of your survival. Next: Try to find a good spot to build a temp/perm shelter. Now, if you are the type of player that moves around alot, then i would just make a temporary shelter (don't use too many materials) And of course, you will need torches to light up your dark world, right? Well, if you followed these steps, you should be good to go, so have fun, and remember: Watch Out For That Creeper!
