As a new player, I know that having to deal with other players killing me (with more advanced gear) on top of the already existing risks would be a bit much.

There's something to be said for that raw, free-for-all experience for sure. It's just a bit maddening to be slaughtered by a lava-proof diamond armor-bearing juggernaut before you've even made your first diamond pick.

I see that I'm just reiterating what others have said, but another voice of the same opinion can't hurt!

 

This thread has been necro'd 4 times now. If anyone wants this to happen then they should write a new complaint, because I'm locking this one.
