Idiots...

I started with creative, then went straight to hardcore my first time

Nice

When i first got the game a few years ago, I started off with creative, so i can learn about the types of blocks. It was around the 1.13 update that i first got mc. Later, i would put my knowledge to the test with survival, and only started doing hardcore in 2020. Its smarter to learn about the game and what you should and shouldn't do rather then immediately start in hardcore mode. I dont understand all these new players in these minecraft fail videos who Always start in hardcore mode then get angry when they die. Its better to LEARN about the game first.

ya i did the same.
i think people are starting with hardcore cuz LTN and dream make minecraft look kinda easy but the reality is dream is a pro and LTN over prepares for everything.
so new people think minecraft is easy and rage quit after they get murdered by a creeper after mining diamonds with a stone pic

The best way to get introduced to minecraft is not hardcore. The best way to get introduced to minecraft is watching a youtuber that isn't a speedrunner. Watch someone like paulsoarsjr if your going to jump straight into survival.
