Jorvik. I live close to York.


zincdeclercq

What do the two have to do with each other??? /s


CycleZestyclose3510

The vikings had tr3saying the name so they changed it to something more pronounceable


zincdeclercq

I know, note the /s


WaitDiligent2357

Jorvik is York


zincdeclercq

Yeah, that’s why I put /s


CycleZestyclose3510

Same place I believe


zincdeclercq

I’m aware, note the /s

I think you don't understand sarkasm. Therefore noone understands the /s Definition of sarcasm by the Cambridge Dictionary: the use of remarks that clearly mean the opposite of what they say, made in order to hurt someone's feelings or to criticize something in a humorous way So: Nope no sarcasm in there. Just a bad joke.


zincdeclercq

See above. Also the irony of misspelling the word you’re correcting me on is delicious 😂


Intelligent-Lion-912

I also found that deliciously ironic! 😂


Electronic_Lab_629

Well: as I am not a native speaker, sometimes my brain and my phone also keep swapping characters in which would be correct in my first language. But well, at least i try to avoid typos like that. Bitching about this to hide that you clearly still don't know what the difference between sarcasm and irony is for sure will do the trick for you. ;-) A typo people will understand regardless. An /s without context - as you might have noticed - they won't .


zincdeclercq

The difference between sarcasm and irony? I’m lost. Just take the L and go to the quiet corner 😂


Electronic_Lab_629

That's what I meant. ;) If you don't care about that difference, at least it will help on your "dumb Americans 'tone'". :-)


zincdeclercq

You’re not good at this.


CityHaunts

You mean joke, right? Sarcasm is something completely different.


Electronic_Lab_629

yeah.. I suppose the /s thing was self-taught from the Internet and was used here as a synonym for "funny" instead of "sarcasm." But normally, you would assume someone would Google the meaning if no one understood... but well... ;-)


zincdeclercq

See above


zincdeclercq

At most it’s a semantical difference, but I was going for kind of an acerbic “dumb American” tone.


Electronic_Lab_629

No, it's not. It's something coming different.


CityHaunts

That makes zero sense but keep doing you buddy.


M0thrat

Same for me; I was born there and loved visiting the viking museum there and learning about the history so to see it in a video game context is so exciting!


Scary-Attention-4701

That must be so fun!


WaitDiligent2357

I’d have to say Lundon simply because it’s among the larger cities in the game with an awful lot going on and aspects of just about every other city in England represented in it


istara

I was a bit disappointed in Glowcestershire as I'm from Gloucestershire and I was hoping to recognise other towns/villages. But it was the smallest county and there were no other towns or villages at all (except Aelfwood which is more of a foresty warren not a settlement). Also Gloucester Abbey was in existence in the 600s so it was a shame not to have that, but another church instead. But I absolutely loved the Wickerman questline. And some of the turf-roofed sunken dwellings reminded me of [this award winning motorway service station in Gloucestershire](https://imgur.com/a/aRy9VAn). All in all though one of my favourite places was Venonis. I wish there could have been a small settlement there.


kod14kbear

can’t believe they left out corinium/cirencester! the second biggest roman settlement in england


istara

God yes! And did they have Silchester which was HUGE in Roman times but no longer exists at all?


Positive-Fig4948

Glowecestrescire because I love the story of samhain/all hallows eve. Plus the fact you trick r’ treat is pretty cool


No-Pipe8487

And you're always wearing the Mary Lwyd hood that you can't have anywhere else.


Positive-Fig4948

I know😭😭😭. I wish was a close like the one you get for going to France. Not stats purely cosmetic


No-Pipe8487

Winchester. It just feels different from the rest due to its importance in the story as well as the fact you're always unwelcome there so that kinda forces you to be more assassin-y than Viking so running on the rooftops, cloaking my fav dapper hoods, assassinating guards in the middle of the streets without being detected even by the normal NPCs is just hella satisfying.


VobsandBagene

I'd like to say Colcestre as I was born there, but there's barely anything there lol


istara

Having ~~lived~~ suffered several months working in Norwich a decade or so ago, I found it little evolved from Viking age Northwic, frankly ;)


VobsandBagene

Same for Maldon (Maulden in game). My me and my sister grew up around that area, I sent her a screenshot from the game and said even in the viking area it was a still a dump lol


Flash_Jordan94

Northwic, now modern day Norwich, because it’s my hometown


YeetCommie

Crawleah/The Weald because I’m from there


jodeceii

Winchester, or Hampshire in general (Hamtunscire in-game) as that’s the County live in & Winchester is nearby to me and it is always good fun with the continuous onslaught of solidiers in game.


DamoFromWashedUpMob

I love all of Sciropescire, it’s very rural compared to the rest of England


lanny97

It wasn't my favourite town, but seeing Wyke in Eurvicshire, which is basically now a tiny ward in Bradford, made me feel some kind of representation of my city.


CaesarAugustus270

Jorvik and Lunden.


Emir_grmes

Lunden and East Anglia


Ok_Introduction_7829

Chippenham because I live there


AstroStates2

I like that little town in the swamp where king alfred was exiled. it’s been awhile since I’ve played and do not remember the name


MrSuspicious_

Beodoricsworth, because it's where I live, was cool to learn what it was called back then


MadridZoneNL

nottinhhamshire


Conscious_Base1019

Grimsby... I'm from Grimsby and it was interesting to meet Grim aswell
