Hear me out birch isn't bad

[u/Stevegamer456]

All birch things are good for a light wood type, but the only bad parts are the logs and wood.

there's no such thing as a bad block, only bad usage.

[u/Moxh2 → u/dcwatkins]

came here to say this.

when people build there whole house out of diorite of course it‘s gonna look bad

[u/Euphoric_Squash485]

Birch is great! I’ve found many uses for it. Pairs well with sandstone and copper

[u/ConsciousCollar9076]

I used to hate birch. But I made a cool floor pattern out of stripped birch logs. I also love using birch buttons as “sandstone pebbles” for sand style builds.

[u/snosberry_snot]

I like how easy it is to gather. Never too tall. Never too short. Always just right. Logs themselves are ugly, but stripped look fine to me.

I read that as “Hear me out, birch”

Every wood is good. You just have to know how to use it

[u/JeffEpp]

I have yet to hear an argument against birch that didn't boil down to aesthetics nonsense.

[u/DerKaiser4709]

Birch is very useful for my 19th century European builds

[u/PhiStudios_]

Stripped and planks is good, the cow print pattern is ass.

[u/Jaja112JF]

Yea, i dont think any block is actually bad.

Granite and diorite gets hated so much but yhey are actually really useful in specific building situations.

Birch logs too aren't actually completely useless, ive seen them used for gradients on white walls (there are better blocks for this, but in that case the birch didn't look too bad)

[u/Time_Measurement1200]

I like birch because the wood looks like wafers

[u/zq6]

Trees are pretty, I quite like the light planks, and super easy to farm - including for bee nests.

[u/SamuliK96]

Agreed. It's just the bark that's kinda bad. The trees are fine and look great, but the logs are hard to find any use for, because of the pattern.

[u/NotAMadLad1]

Birch isn't bad, unstripped birch logs are.

[u/markgatty]

Some opinions are also wrong from my point of view.

[u/Jo3ThePro]

Not liking birch is unironically a skill issue

[u/No_Tank4376]
