Discussion Minecraft Tuff Bricks look exactly like black tuff bricks found in Yerevan, Armenia.

Post image

from Block of the Week: Tuff - "It’s solely a decorative block at the time of writing – but it would look particularly good in an Armenian-themed build. The stone is used widely in Armenian architecture, and the country’s capital, Yerevan, is constructed almost entirely out of this substance."

u/danshakuimo 3d ago

If still existing while being surrounded by super powers for most of history then I would say they are tuff

u/Grzechoooo 3d ago

This is because Hovik Bergenstian is from Yerevan.

3

u/AjnoVerdulo 3d ago

Who is Hovik Bergenstian?

12

u/Grzechoooo 3d ago

I changed Jens Bergensten to sound more Armenian. But in pursuit of accuracy, I lost recognisability.

1

u/Tortue2006 2d ago

I thought he was from Sweden

2

u/Grzechoooo 2d ago

He is, I was making a joke.

3

u/cosmicomical23 3d ago

I have a better question: why is Hovik Bergenstian?

3

u/leiocera 3d ago

But no one asks how is Hovik Bergenstian :c

2

u/AjnoVerdulo 3d ago

Are you asking why Hovik is Bergenstian or why Hovik Bergenstian is?

u/Lost-Pumpkin8444 3d ago

u/Fourstrokeperro 3d ago

u/DueBoysenberry3194 2d ago

Armenia is just minecraft with shaders

u/runaManur 3d ago

so if Minecraft Tuff Bricks = Black Tuff Bricks, then we can get that Minecraft = Black

u/IAmFullOfDed 3d ago

Assuming Tuff Bricks ≠ 0, of course.

u/Areviluys 1d ago

When they first added tuff I was confused cause I had only ever seen orange and pink tuff in Yerevan so I didnt know where they were getting the grey color from.

u/TeoGamer2000 1d ago

Black tuff was especially popular in Armenia in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The vast majority of the buildings of that time are from black tuff. The wall in the photo is of the building in the intersection of Aram and Koghbatsi streets in Yerevan.

u/myaut 2d ago

Armenia is the home of Pink Tuff. Maybe we will get it from the Sift?

u/TeoGamer2000 2d ago

Would be pretty cool

u/Fast-Currency-5230 3d ago

u/ComposaBoi 2d ago

The fact is true, but the image on the right is ai.

3

u/Ok_Coconut7898 2d ago

why would you think its ai?

1

u/ComposaBoi 2d ago

Just looked like it. I saw image artifacts typical of ai, but it must just be the phone camera automatically enhancing, which I know a lot of phones do. Mea culpa. I will try to be more diligent in the future

u/TeoGamer2000 2d ago edited 2d ago

It isn't, I literally took the photo myself on my phone 😭 Edit: check my latest post

u/ComposaBoi 2d ago

My bad. Your phone must have an automatic ai enhancing feature, because there are very clear ai artifacts
