What version did you start playing in?
I've been screwing around with the old versions of Minecraft and I started to wonder which version the majority of you started playing in? If you'd like to say exactly which version you started in, please do so in the comments.

2
i started in 1.14-
3
I don't remember if it was 1.6 or 1.7 all I remember is that 1.8 got me hyped.
2
Heh, I can imagine; 1.8 seemed like a pretty cool update. (BTW, I'm not biased because of the old combat mechanics, I started in 1.10.2)

Started playing when i was like 3 or 4 with my dad's help lol
So... uh... probably around 1.1 or 1.2? im not even sure :P

Check guestds's reply on someone else's comment, they posted a link to a place where you can find the date you bought the game. From there, you can check the JE version history and figure out which version was out when you bought the game.
And yeah, I got it because a friend was constantly bugging me about it. I don't even remember how I found out about the game in the first place.

I think close to 1.1. For some reason I remember that I liked version 1.2.5.
1
What did you like about it?
1
I started playing in beta in the early 2011 before release of 1.0.0
1
Honestly, I can't decide if I started playing on Alpha or Beta. My memories aren't good back at this time.

i think, if youre using the same account, you can see it here: https://account.mojang.com/me

1.8.8
2
I started April 29, 2013, but I cant remember the exact version that was released at the time.
After looking up version histories, I started around the first sights of 1.6.1, but I think I played on 1.5.# without realizing it.

A user by the name of guestds said that as long as it's the same account you can see the date that you bought the game here: https://account.mojang.com/me If you look up the java edition version history, you can see what version the date corresponds to.

For me it was Alpha, I don't remember exactly which version, but I'm pretty certain I still have the Jar file for it somewhere in an old backup.
1
Cool! Can you try to look for the jar? There are a number of different versions that haven't been archived on the gamepedia and they're looking for people with backups that might still have them. Check it out when you get the chance.
1
not sure but I think it was 1.7.X or almost 1.7
EDIT: I checked my mojang account and the gamepedia and I started playing in 1.7.10, in September 21, 2014 (a bit sooner because I played the Demo first and buyed the game later)

2
Yeah, I got the demo during the 1.9 days but my first official non-demo world was in 1.10.2. I still have it on my cruddy old laptop...
2
i had just bought the game right now but i think i started playing in infdev or pre classic. Idk i cant give any of my files cuz the pc which had them died due to MINECRAFT RTX
1
I've heard many things about the RTX stuff, I think I'll just stick to shaderpacks instead... lol
2
1.7 or 1.8 that was when I started
1
Nice, the golden age of modding!
1
I started playing java in 1.14 but I have played the game since pocket edition 9.5
1
My first ever version was the free version of PE (PE Alpha) but i shortly got java 1.6.4. I still consider 1.6.4 one of the best versions
1
1.7 - 1.8, I started playing once I saw a B-Team series and had to get the game <3 I didn't start using mods for a whole year though because of how crappy my computer was at the time
1
I think Beta but my clearest memories I have is with the very early Xbox 360 version, like with the old tutorial map and such. So old enough where I deserve a veterans discount.
1
i havent play that long cuz i started playing in 1.14.4
1
I used a free trial in version 1.11 but didn't get the full version until 1.12
2
1.8 for me and I still remember that weekend as if it were yesterday.. My girlfriend had been playing Minecraft for quite a few weeks and finally decided during a weekend visit to show me around. One thing led to the other and I got my account (and game) that very same evening. We started playing together that Friday evening and went to bed when we suddenly noticed that it already got light outside! 😮
That's also the game where I learned that you couldn't fly in survival mode as you can do in Creative ;)

You played the game all night?!
2
Fortunately for us it happened on a Friday evening so... we could take it easy the next day :)

1.8 is my beggining
1
I started in Infdev i think
2
Ah, Infdev. The days of nuclear-green grass....
1
blinding, haha
1
I started in PE, but I know it was before the aquatic life updates, and I think it was classic
1
As the poll has ended, Java Alpha version 1.1.2_01
1
Cool. Were you surprised when Alpha 1.2.0 came out and suddenly everything was really dark and gloomy because of the Halloween update? That's when they changed grass to be non-nuclear. (it's not the official name for that color though)
1
i dont know which one is java-
1
typical computer version.
2
I think I started in the bedrock aquatic update.
1
1.5.2
1
1.3.2
1
Started off on Java Edition Official Release 1.2, and then went over to Console Legacy Xbox 360 Edition on TU 9 until I came back to Java Edition at 1.10, and then once 1.13 came out, I switched over to Bedrock Edition and have been solid since.
1
I started playing Java edition in 1.7.10, but I played Pocket Edition for about a year before that in 0.8, when they didn't have infinite or flat worlds, there was no caves, and instead of a nether dimension there was a nether reactor that spawned a giant netherrack mountain in your world.
