I want to start a discussion about what you do when playing survival. Do you cut right to the chase and dig a small hole and live there for the entirety, do you look for the perfect settling grounds for a base? How quickly do you get to the nether or start looking for the end?
Personally, I spend most of my time building. I enjoy being creative but at the same time playing survival. My main focus is making my home/base look very well made. I'm usually so focused on it that days go by before I even make annether portal or make the journey to the end.

It very much depends on the kind of game. When I'm alone I usually start with a small hole, then try to expand on that hole and turn it into something bigger and nicer (starting with a storage). This is also where the challenge lies a bit.
But when I'm playing with one or more friends on a local server then this usually changes into just having a good time. In our current world we build a small house and the idea is basically to extend on that and turn it into something bigger and better. I'm a nut for redstone so I like to come up with small redstone contraptions whereas my friend loves building so that balances out quite nicely.
Still, that's survival play. With Minecraft in general I'm a nut for redstone and redstone contraptions and somewhat recently (read: approx. 8 months ago) expanded this to command blocks as well.
For me Minecraft has become much more than just a game, it's also one gigantic gaming platform where you can do tons of tinkering.
Right now I'm working on creating a custom book which briefly gives a rough description about my server and also provides players with ways to "do" things. You know: teleport to spawn, get a starting kit, make your sheep talk, etc. That's the kind of stuff I can really lose my self into.

By day, I gather resources. By night, I hide in a hole in the wall that I need to make sure is close to trees and animals. Every time I venture away from the home, I end up losing it.
My tactic may change, as it's been a while since I've done vanilla survival, though.
I don't believe I've ever legitimately made a Nether/End portal in survival before...

Wow and I thought I was stretching it with taking so long to make a portal!

My main objectives is to expand and upgrade my equipment and base.
2
Once I finally get settled and have a home built, I usually build a big wall around it and add more interesting builds inside.
2
I look for the perfect place which usually either has wolves or horses (or if I find wolves they just travel with me) and try find a mountain to live in. There also needs to be animals near.

When I actually play survival my main focus is not on gathering materials to create an Enchanting table as fast as I can to go to the end and kill the Ender Dragon.
My main focus lyes in creating a beautiful town, and creating a fun environment for me and my friends. And I say me and my friends because the only time I do play survival is on my Realm server xD
But I will admit, that we have used Creative to code Command_blocks and create our own mini-games with :D

I'm the same way haha, I'm so focused on how my build looks that I never have enough supplies :p

I've always been a creative player at the core, but when I properly play survival, I just wander and see world generation.
I consider myself at 'diamond' when I manage to find enough iron gear to make a set from towns, and it's an extra bonus if I somehow play that way long enough to get some degree of diamond equipment. I've seen too much diamond for that to be any actual focus for me, though.

You guys don't seem like the survival type, ha.

I collect a fuckton of wood not getting at least a stone axe first and then get straight to building mah house.
That's it I often stop after that part.
