So yesterday I bought Minecraft. Due largely both to this community, and to X's Youtube videos. This game seemed to have it all, and be completely addicting, and for 13.50 I was sold. And for the first 10 minutes or so of me playing it was everything that I wanted it to be.
But then I ran into I problem. I couldn't decide where to make my first home. Whether I just build a house from wood in the middle of the open field, or if I should carve my way into a mountain. The first world I generated had no big mountains any where around my spawn, so while I tried to make a little enclave in a hill side I was not satisfied. So I generated my second world. In this world it was a bunch of tiny islands surrounded by water, and although awesome to look at, I wasn't even sure where to start building. Finally in my third world I got a little hideout going in the side of a mountain, but there were to many pre-made caves around which I felt like wasn't as cool as digging my own...
So moral of the story is I'm just too picky, so I'm curious what are things that make a good starting location to set up camp. I'm kind of set on not building a house, but digging out my place of resident from the rock and cobble stone. But I would appreciate some tricks and hints to get me on my way.
