In my second post, I am sharing a video about how I like to start playing in a new world of Terraria. In any new world of Terraria, I like exploring to find a harder biome (so that I can easily obtain better gear). The snow biome, or the crimson/corruption biome (only one of these per world), but starting out, the crimson/corruption biome is a bit too much to handle with the gear you begin with, but chopping down the trees will allow you to craft really good beginner gear (wooden armor and weapons).
