People just need to wait and actually see how they are in-game (in person, low quality videos tell absolutely nothing) before jumping to conclusions about them. For gods sake they still aren't even out yet stop acting like you know exactly how they are going to be.
My only biggest concern is my terrain getting all messed up by and possibly loosing blocks (since I'm OCD like that), it really has nothing to them being too hard to kill or scary. Although it is nice to know that they seem to be a lot tamer than I expected. Finding a bunch of random holes everywhere would probably bother me. Granted if it's just dirt it's not so bad (considering how much of the stuff I get just by digging), but it's just the principle of it. Sand would bother me even more if it got stolen actually because I love to make glass things.
I don't know, the difference with Creeper 'griefing' is that it only happens if for one, you don't kill it in time, and secondly it's always right in front of you. With this kind it can be whenever and anywhere and there's not much you can do about it unless you see it happening.
But I still think I'm being overcritical about it. Honestly I doubt they're going to be as bad as everyone makes them sound to be. It also helps that they are going to be rare to find anyway.
I found it Stupid as all hell that Everyone is shaking in there boots over an enemy that hasn't even been released yet. On top of that there are literally dozens of comics, groups and Fan art of a a new mob in an unfinished game. People have been flying off the handle and getting angry at something they haven't even tried.
I understand some of the hype, but really? unadventurer his hit a good point. Stop flipping out about the endermen. They die in water, so just put down a bucket of water! Plus, notch has said they'll be quite rare, so you won't have a 100 endermen griefing your house. Probably not even one.

I dont agree, a full grown man on a server, was also complaining about the enderman and their "supernatural abilities". Dont rag on 12 year olds, however some may act highly immature on the internet
Sadly Minecraft in the last year or so has grown so much that now 95% of the forum members are 12 year olds who've never played a challenging game in their life.
I really really hope Notch keeps to his plans and doesn't 'dumb down' the mobs, far too many games these days being dumbed down for kiddies.
I find this very offensive, im 11 and i play minecraft and MW2. REALLY OFFENSIVE

It really wasn't that offensive at all. He's just some guy on a forum that you'll probably never see again. Plus, playing MW2 doesn't make you cool or mature. However, boasting about it DOES make you less cool and less mature.
THANK YOU for posting this. The server that I play on has like 10-20 whiny little girl scouts who won't shutup about endermen.
"OMFG THEY CAN TELEPORT!!"
"OMFG THEY CAN PICK UP BLOCKS!!"
what I say?
"omfg you won't shutup"
Endermen are going to turn out to be not so bad, and infact, at some point, even laughable.
Seems people are just building up the atmosphere for others...
To be honest the Enderman doesnt exactly bother me..new mob..kill it...move on.
But let them make their threads, building the suspense for people who are that into these games is not so bad. No one is telling you to read them.
Honestly enderman have only been seen holding dirt and sand, they are going to spawn rarely, (Their spawn rate was increased for demo purposes at PAX) and they carry 1 block at a time. They probably wont pick stuff up unless there's a player around. (they wont spawn either if no ones around) and they look really easy to kill. The only way it could possibly be a real pain in the ass if they spawned like zombies, and constantly were picking up and dropping placed blocks, and were hostile 100% of the time.
Sorry, but I'm an 11 year old boy, and I think the Endermen is going to be very hard to kill. But hey, "people of 20, 30 years old", if you think that Minecraft is going to be raided by children, I just say: why can't we play the game?
Well, if you think that Minecraft can only be played by adults, just SH*% #@!
I mean, you are being a egoist person. If you aren't scared by the Endermen, just play on Hard and I'll what is going to happen. If you are, play like me, with friends and on Easy or Normal. Maybe peaceful.

yeah miss the days of indev :sad.gif: with out so many 12 year olds
The only thing I didn't like about the Endermen...
Was that Notch released them - on the same day I had just discovered Slenderman - after watching the documentary - and after reading two horribly graphic fanfictions of him.
I literally closed the horrifying story and opened his news to see that thing looking back at me.
Bricks were shat.
I was terrified.
And then I decided that I will hunt these creatures, and now am infinitely more excited for them!
Usually, when someone says they are scared of something, or as you said, says "THEY'RE GOING TO REMOVE BLOCKS FROM MY HOUSE, ****!!!", the person who said this meant it as a joke. It's just an one big "poop your pants out of fear" kind of joke. At least that's how I see it, I haven't noticed any kind of real whining or complaining about the Enderman personally.
Agreed.
I'm 16, and when I heard of the Endermen, I thought of the Slenderman, and got excited cause that whole series scares me lol. Obviously Enderman is a joke towards the meme/marbalhornet.
People arn't over reacting cause they are truely scared of them.
The Endermen arn't going to be extreamly scarey anyways, just startling, and over reacting to them will be fun.
