I know I'm a lil' late to the party, but I only just got the game two days ago, and so far, I'm loving it.

Creepers aren't as bad as people make them out to be. They're pretty easy to hit, and it's also not that hard to just jump outta the way before they blow up. (I haven't been unfortunate enough to bump into one o' those buggers in the nighttime, though.)

That's all.

*Goes back to playing Minecraft*

wait untill 3 of them are on your ass you run into your house and 1 blows up half of it lol

Wait until you're doing something outside, chopping down trees or whatever and FUCK EXPLOSION.  If you're really unlucky he brought a friend. 

It's true creepers are pretty easy PROVIDED that you see them coming at least a little bit and the terrain doesn't trap you.  But that isn't always true.  And then they're horrible. 

Hope you have plenty of fun in the game.  Do you dig your own mines, or do you prefer to explore natural caves?  I've done both, and I break it down like this: 

SAFETY Mines (but still a bit dangerous -- lava)
CONVENIENCE Mines
PRODUCTIVITY Caves?  (a lot, LOT less digging to get at minerals)
FUN Caves  (exploration etc.)

Also if you want obsidian finding a good cave will get you ridiculous amounts of obsidian, I'm in one now and I could literally have thousands of obsidian if I wanted.  Mines are a lot harder since you don't find the lava lakes from the top down.  But then again how much obsidian do you really need?
