In a Google+ post, Notch revealed a mob called Enderman. Endermen are depicted as tall, black creatures with long arms and legs, and seem to be able to hold blocks.

They look like they will be extremely annoying.

They look pretty freaky I like 'em. Block moving mobs would be great, assuming maybe its only 'natural' things they can lift not crafted blocks and that they can only lift from the top.

Wtf... I could make that in 20 minutes... Well the texture... What happened to notch? He ran out of ideas? Lol.

 

[Shadowsmalls]

oh no if they can remove blocks we are doomed

 

[SanchezNI]

I love how we're all experts -_-

oh yes because this is totally the only thing he has been working on for the last 6 months.

well there goes our anti-griefing ability unless it lists the enderman did it.

It would count as environment..... if we were still using BB

Im sure there will be plugins to disable it from griefing. ^^

 

[Cubey]

as what landsliding said, I would like Port Silver to be protected against Endermen...

 

[Bob Jones]

really really weird

Apperently, they run crazy fast, teleport and attack you as soon as you run your reticle over it.

Fear is one of the easiest emotions to evoke, but doing so in a way that doesn’t frustrate or fatigue the player is more difficult. I find this fascinating. What parts of fear are fun, and what parts aren’t fun?

The word of Notch.

Edit: By the way quote from the link sprxx posted.

 

[Landsliding]

Oh that sure is scary, their kinda like those ghosts in the Super Mario games. With teleportation and a scary look.

 

[Steelcryo]

Notch has been watching doctor who...

If you don't get my reference go watch the episode of doctor who called blink! Creepiest episode ever!

 

[Legion]

oh i loved that episode, and i think that you are right, notch has been watching doctor who.
They are so fast
dont turn your back
dont look away
dont even blink
good luck

All though they seem like they are annoying, are they even aggressive? will they kill us by dropping sand and gravel on us? Oh the Horror!

 

[redarrow141]

read notch's blog. if you look at them, they stop and stare at you, if you look away they move toward you at high speed and deal massive amounts of damage.

If your a doctor who fan, they are like the angels.

 

[Itzzaboy]

hehe I really didn't like that episode =/

high enough speed that they take damage themselves if they say hit a wall? that would be funny, build a wall in front, look away and it dies =P
also, while still, you could build aroung it and seal it away =[)
