    There is an old english poem called "the ruin", written in the 8th/9th century. They were in awe of the ruins of roman briton and couldnt understamd where it had come from,so they associated it to a race of giants. The first part of the poem is as follows.
    This masonry is wondrous; fates broke it
    courtyard pavements were smashed; the work of giants is decaying.
    Roofs are fallen, ruinous towers,
    the frosty gate with frost on cement is ravaged,
    chipped roofs are torn, fallen,
    undermined by old age. The grasp of the earth possesses
    the mighty builders, perished and fallen,
    the hard grasp of earth, until a hundred generations
    of people have departed

      They probably knew about Romans by then. Most likely the use of the term "giants" was just a figurative term for the Romans, describing how mighty they were. That's such a neat poem, thanks for sharing its existence!

    God damn, it is almost depressing to look at. I don't really like AC games, especially the newer ones but they nailed the atmosphere of dark ages in here. You see the wonders of the ancient world being mere shadows of their times, slowly falling apart and being replaced with subpar version of a city. You feel that "good times" are long gone and not much you'll do will ever bring it back.

    I'm astounded by the detail--it's actually a very somber experience from my modern perspective to see the remnants of a mighty civilization. One would be tempted to think 'the inhabitants must've felt pretty insignificant', but that might be a bit of projection. I suspect that the denizens of the post-Roman West probably viewed the increasingly decrepit infrastructure more pragmatically, and without any nostalgia: a wonderful source of ready-worked stone, for one thing; a handy shelter in some cases; or useful for repurposing into homes, churches, fortifications, etc (all of which I believe are depicted in various AC videos, to the very great credit of the designers and developers).
    All of which is to say: the locals would probably have viewed Roman ruins as part of their everyday world, useful as a material resource but not of any special significance. Indeed, in some cases objects such as ancient temples might be viewed as 'the abode of demons' while baths (whose water supply had long since vanished) would likely have been viewed with blank incomprehension (and also as another good material resource, lol).
    Still, for me, it's a melancholy sight....

    The obvious route from Lincoln to London would be down the old north road but the walker seems to be on a sight seeing tour of the midlands and the south east. There are no mountains in the south and midlands of England and Venonis is located in land as flat as a pancake. . The journey would have taken over a month. The gates to London would have had sturdy doors to block the entry of invaders and once inside the place would be small and crowded with houses, no big open spaces. They probably would not be lighting fires under the eves of thatched roofs. Roman ruins would have been pulled down are the stone recycled for new buildings.

      While the graphic quality is great the creator's knowledge of Saxon London needs considerable revision of the details of what remained of Roman London. The amphitheatre featured here is definitely does not resemble the one built by Romans.

    Ubisoft has a tendency to make ancient world look old to make it look realistical. All dwelling look like ruins or old, dilapidated but that is anachronistic. Even if a viking house was made of wood it should look clean, fresh cut and the surrounding should be tidy. Instead you get the impression the personage live in ruins build 200 years before them.

    They really should do fantasy worlds because these real life worlds are not too interesting. The ruins, the cities are interesting, the trees and bushes are just like outside of my house.
    Ubisoft built much more beautiful worlds than bethesda ever did or could anymore, if they could find a fantasy talent like they have world building talents they could do something awesome.
    Just imagine a world, mixture of what they did in Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla but filled with fantasy flora and fauna and you could chose different species to play with and you would have clothing choice like in Odyssey!
    And of course... A Boat!!!
    Ubisoft could do wonders if they wouldn't care about money this much.

      So you are telling me that the romans built hadrians wall, including mulitiple forts across that wall, some of whome are still large and imposing today but would not invest in their own privincial capitals like londinimium with grand buildimgs? I suggest you read the old saxon poem called "the ruin' its author sometime in the 8th or 9th century was so in awe of the gramdness of the roman ruins of roman britain that the poem asdociates it all to a race of giants. The saxons were very superstitious people and believed the ruins haunted. The normans then recycled much of the masonary and stone of the roman british buildings to build their abbeys, castles which is why much of it is lost today.

    I wish they'd say AD. Why change the letters of a well known system? Also, what date in 878 are we? This really matters for this year! I see brown leaves on the trees but none on the ground, so perhaps September. That places two months after the battle of edington and a cease to the viking attacks, leading to the Danelaw-England split of 8 years later, under Alfred. But at night I hear big crickets, and there aren't any in England.

      Interesting question. Early in the vid I thought I saw what looked very like bluebells (e.g. around 07:29) so that would place us in April-June. Of course, they may not be bluebells at all and as you say some of the leaves are brown.
      Plus, around the same time there's a mighty tame looking deer (I think--maybe it's a wild boar). Perhaps Nature was just different back in those olden times :)

      No. These LARGE ruins you see in AC Valhalla are pure fantasy. No Roman ruins are this huge. For some reason they oversized them. And yes, in 800s there were plenty Roman buildings actually still in use. For example, Roman city walls were kept relatively maintained for defence, and many forts and churches were still of Roman origin. But, sadly, most o everything else was mostly disasembled and used for newer buildings.
