i had to delete all my worlds along with the .minecraft folder because my game kept crashing for some reason so i had to delete .minecraft and force update sadly. but on the family computer my first world is on there
well, my first world i wanted to build something, and i had already had a "trial" version whenever i went over to my friend's house. so i got on minecraft, went creative superflat, and started building the biggest goddamn mansion i'd ever seen. it was made out of diamond, gold and iron. and i think we got the emerald update whilst i was buiilding the house so i think there's a bit of emerald in there as well. i turned it into a mining museum and made up this weird name 'Elsar' who was the star of the show. i still remember trying to cage up all those wolfs just to make the "Make your own Elsar's Dog" 'activity'. aaaahhh, good times.

Actually, I started back when 1.3.2 (release) had just come out. I built this crazy weird underground house with a hilarous floor plan. However, I drew a picture mapping out every single room of that house. 2 months later, I accidentally deleted the world. I still have the drawing, and with its help, I can actually imagine, visually, going through the house. It makes me feel warm inside...

I did actually cry in Skyrim once, over beyond Riften. Those mountains, are so beautiful...

PPssh, My first survival world I lived in a wood house overloaded with animals and chest. Best noob pro everr

Psht, houses are overrated. I built my first "house" as a completely artificial cave, and I haven't changed my single player style since.

I feel you people But unfortunately, I haven't saved any of my minecraft worlds back in Beta 1.5 when I started playing. I was just sad that today's minecraft didn't seem happier than before. I still remember when my house was on the beach and it was made of pure wooden planks. And my first server that I have played on; I gained friends and the staff welcomed we warmly which made me stay on it... and months have passed, I opened my minecraft again around version 1.8, sad to say things have changed the way it was before. Unfortunately, the server that I loved and called to as home, went down like it died from a prosperous life. Now, with version 1.7.5, I try to find beautiful servers but I guess nothing can make me stay like the ones back then. I'm all alone in the server, stuck in thinking and having nostalgaic feelings. All I can do is put the disk in the jukebox and reminisce of the good old minecraft..

My first world was on a cracked version of minecraft 1.2.5.

I think I lived in a villager house.
I killed all the villagers cause they kept breaking in and letting zombies in.
I got like 15 diamonds and moved into a house I build in a ravine.
My way down was a pathway of sketchy parkour jumps.
I fell. (Into lava in the middle of the ravine)
Didn't play for a few months after loosing all my stuff.

Eventually I created a new world and got really far and learned to use chests.
Then the computer got loads of viruses and I couldn't play anymore so I was sad again.

The next time I played minecraft was when I bought it for Xbox.
A few months later I bought it for PC.

I am now working on a massive minecraft adventure map with a story, quests and custom mobs and equipment. http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/a-minecraft-rpg-beta-10/
It's amazing how far you go in a matter of years.

Well, if anyone's interested, I just found my old worlds, and this was my first house.

The first ever time i played minecraft was in 4th grade in my school library. I was feeling bored after-school and my friend had told me it was a cool game. He built a volcano and I was amazed, so I played the little beta minecraftforfree.com cracked in-browser version of minecraft. Ohhh those were the days. I tried making a house inside a mountain and then it got flooded with water, I still wasn't to good with movements. Then he showed me how to make rollercoasters and I made a HUGE one when creative first came out but then I fell into the void and lost that world. I still remember it. I built another huge rollercoaster that took almost a whole year to finish all by myself (and I have it up for download if anyone wants to take a look) I need to just stop writing and think back to the good times before the 5 yr old faction players screaming hacker hacker to their screens and raging with profanity in chat. Back when it was a small little community and it was Notch just developing his little indie game not knowing how huge it would ever become. And now, Minecon 2013 had over 15k attendees I believe, Minecraft has close to 20M downloads. It just overwhelms me Those were the good times.

Now, now, let's not boast about how long we've played Minecraft.

OT: I really got to load up my old worlds from my former computer and find my dirt house. It had a little glass greenhouse and was right next to this gravel beach. (Oh gravel beaches, how I miss you!). The nostalgia is real.

Most people remember how their first house of their first world was made of dirt or was otherwise pathetic. I don't mean to brag, but my first "house" was a mansion. First world I ever created in Minecraft, I immediately went to the top of a mountain, chopped down a couple trees, and began my ambitious project. Sadly, I never finished it (I did come close though).

It was actually a really cool world (for example, there was a desert nearby with 3 temples and 2 villages). I should revisit it some time.

My first world:
Lost my house.
Rage quit.
Deleted world.
Tried again later.
Broke boat in middle of ocean.
Drowned myself on purpose.
Went home and survived my first night.


I don't have any of my old worlds sadly.

I still have my original world... i kinda screwed it up but it is still my favorite!

I can't find my original world.
However, I did find a single picture...

ahh the good old days! try every single snapshot until 1.7.5 on a extra save for a extra dose
