How Start a New Minecraft Survival World the Cozy Way

Hey everyone and welcome today we’ll be talking about how I like to approach starting new worlds in my cozy survival play style for my cozy Gamers out there this approach focuses on getting set up fairly early in the game without feeling rushed to accomplish every major step

So the first thing I like to do is pick a goal and make sort of a rough plan it’s really easy to get bored in a game like Minecraft where there’s no explicit end condition but that’s also part of its beauty there are so many different things you can do

Do you want to slay the Dragon explore all the rare and wondrous biomes maybe build a sprawling medieval city or even just try to survive hardcore under some crazy conditions the goal that you pick is really up to what you think would be the most fun for you

Once I know what goal I’m going for with this world I’ll do a little bit of research this is usually just me scrolling through Pinterest or YouTube to see if there’s any type of build or concept or idea that really sparks my interest when I decided to make my build

Focused let’s play series I watched some tutorials from different creators on how to improve my skills once I’ve gotten a little bit of inspiration I move on to finding a seed yes you can just launch the game and pick whatever random thing it gives to you but I think it’s actually really

Important for your long-term enjoyment to know that the world that you’re playing in is going to give you what you’re looking for without you having to search thousands and thousands and thousands of blocks so to get your seed you’re going to go to the website chunk base slash app

Slash seedmap this website is really really cool the first thing you want to do is make sure you select the version that you’re playing on and yes they have both regular and large biome options you want to click generate and it’ll give you your seed some of the really neat extra features

It has is if you go down here you can actually select what you want to see on the map I tend to deselect all of it because it’s a little bit much to look at it once and just look at the biomes and spawn point occasionally I’ll also turn on The Villages

The next really cool feature is you can highlight specific biomes if you’re looking for that in your seed so for instance if I wanted to find every Tiger Biome and see how close they are to spawn I can do that but I’m actually going to look for something closer to a

Flower forest or sunflower planes and find one that’s relatively close to spawn foreign with that done it’s time to take a look at our world settings what settings are and aren’t valid to play with seems to be a fairly big point of contention within the community generally speaking

Play with what you think would be the most fun because the people that are going to judge you for that probably aren’t standing over your shoulder while you’re playing since this is a survival world tutorial I would recommend leaving the game mode in survival this would

Also be a great time to put in your data packs resource packs mods anything else like that that you plan on using because it loads a little bit quicker than when you’re actually in the world trying to apply them but we’re going to go down to more World options and this is where

You’ll actually put in that seed make sure you have your world type set to whatever type of seed you grabbed or you will end up in something different and click create new world so once you’re in the actual World we’re going to start by making the basic tools

Take down the first tree you see I almost always turn it all into planks but you don’t have to do that I go looking for stone almost immediately you can see here I did spawn next to a village but for the sake of this video I’m going to ignore it for now

That I’ve managed to find some Stone I’m going to make my first wooden pickaxe and my now about 12 to 20 stone a lot of people will tell you to just ditch your wooden tools I would recommend keeping them they at least work as fuel until you can find coal you

Can also see I was really lucky here there was some exposed iron but that isn’t always the case thank you next I’m going to look for some sheep to make a bed look we all know what I’m about to do to him just get the wool if you have shears

You can actually clip it off without having to um well you know but for now since I only found one iron I don’t have those yet with that done we’ve made our bed and we have our first basic tools I’m gonna go over here and grab this sugar cane that’s definitely recommended anytime

That you see it because it can be used to make Pages for books later on once I’ve got my bed ax pickaxe and furnace I go looking for either a cave or a ravine or even a mountain top somewhere where I’m likely to find coal and iron

Once we have a basic amount of coal I’m going to make us some torches and since it’s kind of getting to Nightfall I’m gonna see this in this cave when you reach your first night you have two options really you have three if you want to stay out and deal with the moms

But assuming you do go into a cave or a hole or find some sort of shelter you can either sleep or you can mine through the night I tend to mine through the night just to see if I can find anything at least then it’s a little bit more

Productive than just sleeping all the way through however if you choose to mind be very careful not to fall into a cave it’s very easy to get overwhelmed by mobs down there especially when you don’t have armor yet I did spend the night Mining and I went down to a level where

Iron is supposed to be fairly common but I got kind of unlucky this trip no biggie it’s time to now leave this cave and I will go searching through this Village I usually just open the doors and look for any chest that I can find sometimes Villages have really good loot

I was very lucky to find this book here and honestly the apples aren’t a bad thing to take either but I’m gonna also grab their stone cutter because I know that I’m going to use a lot of stone brick materials later on With that I’ll just kind of continue my search for any coal or iron once you have enough iron I highly recommend making your Shield which will really help you deal with Mobs an iron ax and an iron pickaxe if you’re doing a more build focused play you might also

Spare the resources for some shears so you can get leaves to decorate your builds later on and a bucket is honestly super useful to take with you with some water because if you’re underground you can end up falling into some lava and that can save your life or if you’re

High up and you’re fast enough you can drop it down so you don’t take any damage from falling once I have all of my basic tools made and a good amount of iron I’ll go exploring for where I want to set up my first starter base

If you want to find a lot of really nice stuff early on I would recommend getting a seed that lands you somewhere in or near a Plains they tend to have a lot of ruined portals Villages Open Spaces to lead into caves honestly it’s just packed full of everything you could need

Early game I’m gonna grab these stone brick materials again because I know I want to use them for my build but you can almost always and in fact I think you’re supposed to always be able to find a chest with these ruined portals sometimes you get really lucky and they

Actually have what you need to complete the portal inside of them this one didn’t but it did give me some basic armor to wear I continue to explore until I found an area that I thought was really really beautiful once here I move on to building so I will see you once our

House is built starter bases can be as intricate or simple as you want definitely recommend having some sort of storage smelting crafting at a food source foreign Well that’s it for this one guys thank you so much for watching if you liked it please don’t forget to like And subscribe and I will see you in the next one
