I have a couple of questions for those of you who have been playing for a while:

1. What does obsidian do? Just sit there and look pretty?
2. Do you have any general strategy for mining?

i thought obsidian was a really strong material, but i'm not sure? something like that.

and sure, dig deep. every now and again mine out little bases with stoves, crafting tables, and chests so you don't have to go all the way to the surface to dump your load.

You lucky son of a *censored.4.0*. I can't find gold or obsidian for the life of me.
You can make obsidian yourself.
 
More plans to expand... I'm not liking my castle so much now, the main part is fine. It's the new wing addition, it just doesn't fit. I'll probably move on again soon, probably to the north, where I've yet to really check out.
I just hope to find a nice spot to hold up. Most of the areas I've had are too steep or too flat.

a fun project is building fancy bridges between lands.

the last one i made had little garden areas with trees at random intervals and nice torchlit walkways. :]

I've thought about this, but is there really a need for all that? I mean, I suppose if the main goal is to find the rarer stuff like gold and diamonds it wouldn't really matter if you left chests full of stuff all over the place.

it's not necessary, and it's a good idea to go through and haul everything back to one place once in awhile. the "bases" aren't so much for permanent storage as they are temporary so you can get back to mining.

of course, it's mostly personal preference.
 
Started a new game, I've got some pictures.

It's kind of a make shift home, but I might stay and make it lead underground, since I love this lagoon.

Wow, you got really lucky with the geography of that little place. It's almost perfect.

I know, I got a very watery place there's a lot of islands around. And I found these two (linked by bridge) and explored and found this lagoon. Oh and the bridge is called Gaptooth Bridge (yay for references) I don't know to stay or not.
 
You people have such interesting scenery. I started on a plain beach and moved into some hills. :/ I've looked in all directions a lot and there isn't anything interesting at all to be seen. Perhaps some non-underground exploration is in order, then.

I got lucky as well, just had some awesome geography.

Is it true that you still haven't seen any gold? Because if so... you poor thing.

Well gold isn't that useful.

It's totally true, actually. You don't even need gold to mine diamond.

it has the same properties as wood as far as the number of uses goes

it's pretty useless aside from looking good, atleast until multiplayer is released and we can use it as currency or some *censored.2.0*.
