I Want To Start Playing Minecraft?

Why do you need a general opinion on it - act on impulse, if you want to play then go play.

Go ahead!
I'm A Female and I love it.
Basically i watched youtubers and i got the hang of it. Just keep practising
A good Username would be whatever, just no Bad words or last name and age. Good examples; Racheliscool, Rachellikes(insert here), Rachel(bunch of random numbers), or anything you like. My username is LittleArtistSFL. Just be creative.
Have fun!

Don't worry about "not being good at it":)
I was terrible at it once I started playing the game, but after a week or so I got the hang of it.
It's pretty much the same with all games. Lol
As for the username, I'm not quite sure. You may have to figure out that one on your own. It was super confusing for me, too. >.<

I'd advise ps3/Xbox editions first to learn it. Much easier!

I would recommend watching a youtuber named Davidr64yt, he's one of the first and still best people who have ever done a Let's Play of minecraft.

While the videos are a little dated, as many changes has happened in the years since minecraft was in alpha, the basics are still there.

Here is the first video, gets much better when he actually researches what to build

My friend started it about a week ago, loved it but hated it before. I play on a server (temporarily closed) where there are lots of girls - and on MineCraft people don't really ask if you are Male or Female. Why not ask your Brother(s) to have a little go on it, or try the MineCraft demo on their website. As Renae said the username shouldn't have any bad words, and remember once you've chosen it thats it so make sure you like it!
