Hello. I am going to start java game development. I want to make a survival rpg game. I was going to use python but decided to use java. So anyone have any good tutorials and tools to use? Thanks in advanced!

I've had some success with Slick2D in the past (assuming you game is 2D). There is a tutorial series on youtube for it http://www.youtube.com/user/thenewboston/videos?query=slick. I haven't watched it myself but have watched some of the other videos by the same guy and he's pretty good. If you're making a rpg you'll probably want to include a scripting engine. LUA or python are probably the best.
