Minecraft Endermen: Good Idea?

[C95J]

You should play Amnesia...

I got it on Steam about October last year I think.

So far I have played exactly 20 minutes of it, I should really just man up and play it sometime.

Switches to peaceful...

There I'm safe!

1. Stare directly at.
2. Walk slowly towards, maintaining eye contact.
3. Set on fire.

I see no flaws with this plan whatsoever!

 

[i love headcrabs]

For some reason they remind me of the collecters aswell.

like you just walk into a village at night and you see is the villagers being taking away by enderman and you stare at one and all you hear is assuming direct control

 

[LaughingAtlas]

I've always played on peaceful, but these guys sound pretty interesting. I think we can be friends, Endermen, provided you don't go around taking apart my world.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

What... noises will it make?

Probably none to increase the creepyness. Maybe a heavy, yet silent breathing.
And static and ambient noise would probably make it even more creepy.

 

[Alon Shechter]

I didn't even need to see the images, first thing I thought when I saw the title was "Aw shit. Slender Man."
What's next, Notch?
Some creepy dude in a mask that randomly attacks you for teh lulz and sits on your wardrobe at night?
An enchanter named Tim?
A killer rabbit?
BEN?!

Do you know what'd make it scarier? If there was a 50/50 chance of, when looking at an Enderman, he will either kill you, or give you a cake.

I wonder what it would drop.

Maybe he would drop the end(ermen) of the game?

Also, why is the captcha a goddamn Subway commercial!?

 

[pearcinator]

Well that clip you showed freaked the hell out of me...I was expecting it to be behind her (u know the hollywood cliche) but its much freakier that it didnt.

 

[Shadow-Phoenix]

Honestly... that seems a bit unfair. And the fact it can hold blocks makes me worry it'll be able to just deconstruct your buildings for the hell of it, otherwise holding blocks would seem pointless. I just hope he adds the option to turn off individual mobs with the update. Plus, having this would make having windows in your house or building not worth it due to danger. So basically... bleh.

He said that they'd "move blocks around", and I'm guessing they'll stick to sand, gravel and maybe dirt (they don't have any tools). Your stone base would be safe.

I... hope.

I doubt it. It sounds like they can simply pick them up instead of having to destroy them, so that would mean they can just grab them and walk away while you cry gently to yourself.

I really highly doubt they will be able to pick up every block within the game since it would just make you stay up at night defeating the whole point of the bed and sleeping in minecraft along with the point of solid block objects such as stone.

I'm shivering in anticipation(and pants-wetting fear) for this new mob.
But regarding moving blocks around, I was thinking that since it doesn't seem to carry tools, it can only break blocks that can be broken by hand(and be broken at the same speed as by hand).
So it can go through dirt, sand and wood easily but will have a hard time with stone or stronger.
At least that's what I think(and am hoping)
If they can punch through Rock and iron

In a game like Minecraft ending the game would be one of the worst things that could happen. Thus making them truly scary.

Also the Escapist runs, at least, two different capatcha services to see which is better. There have been a lot of complaints about reCapatcha using too many non Roman characters.

I think the mob is completely unfair. You look at it and that instantly triggers it's attack phase? And it can teleport? Unless the mob goes down in one hit with any type of weapon, it's insanely unfair. However, it might work if the mob appears only every 15-30 Minecraft nights.

Its probably pretty easy to not put your cursor on one.

I think it's fair because it gives minecraft a new scare element to the game and your not supposed to be out at night anyway since all the other mobs are about and since you can easily "chop chop, stab stab" the current mobs it appears easy at the current state but add the Endermen and you have to think twice about what your doing and where you are going like how if you don't look at them and try to move past them you are chancing yourself a possible confrontational attack thus making you think twice about moving around at night.

This is precisely what I was thinking. But, I use fire on anything I don't understand in minecraft.

THIS IS TOO FUCKING CREEPY

excuse my double post but, that kinda the point. Its unfair that an enemy teleport,but not that it dies in one hit? Also its your fault for starting it, it will only attack if the cursor is over it, and it will die in one hit because it to scare people. BTW i think now would be a good time to get a gun mod...with bullets i mean lots and lots of bullet.

Minegunner; because its classy in a brutal manner. Not weak about its class its about as direct and strong as an oncoming semi. Manual reloading, powerful, one shot to kill, already staring at him so you probably won't miss.

Wouldn't it be interesting if he disappeared in a cloud of black smoke or dust upon death?

silly the grim reaper appear behind it and tells you, "you're lucky i'm here" and pulls him away. later in the day, a giant crater or side of mountain is blown up if you check it out, their is a sign that say, " this is why you owe me one" sign death.

I knew there was a reason I created piston-powered window-shutters for my castle.

As well as reinforced stone blocks that slide out in front of my doors...

What? I'm not scared, I'm just prepared...
