So, I just started playing Minecraft for the first time...

The Switch version came out yesterday and I needed something on my off days to keep me busy (as the wait for Fire Emblem Echoes is driving me slightly insane) so I finally jumped into the game. Does anyone still play at all? Any tips for a pretty much « new farmer »?

I've watched a yearly 'hardcore' series on YT so i'm familiar with the UI and other little things, but not much else. So far I generated a world with the 'natural' texture pack and made myself a small cobblestone house on top of a mountain. It's covered in torches so it acts as a beacon when i've wandered too far off.

I plan on generating a Mario map later today to see how that looks!

I recently got it for the XBox one.
I haven't played much due to other games beckoning me lol.
I only got past the "how to play" portion.

I want to try again and get further.

I've never played before so I'm not sure what I want to do but that torch beacon idea lol.

Well I sometimes play on my friend's PlayStation3, but she literally tells what to do lol. she's kind of controlling... not in a bad way. She's the expert, not me.
And everything she tells me slips my mind, hehe. It's kind of fun though. Even while being clueless.
Like a year ago she made a DanTDM world and I was like... seriously? What is with her and DanTDM...?
