How do you pronounce it?
I guess it is ''wolken'', like in ''awaKEN''.

How else could you pronounce it?
Wolken. I pronounce it as it is written down. No fancy english 'silent' characters or special sounding.

Yeah, I always pronnounced Wolken, but now that a lot of youtubers are talking about the game, I just hear them all pronnouncing it differently: ''wolcen'' like in ''sand''. It just got me thinking.
Thanks for answering.

I pronounce it both ways, "Wol-ken" and "Wol-sen," I've heard the devs pronounce it "Wol-sen" in videos, but when I look it up, it says "Wol-ken."

Basically, I'm torn and Idk what to do. Colors have lost their taste, bananas have lost their meaning. I'm spiraling. The universe no longer makes sense.

The studio is a French one but the name is in English so either options are possible ones. For my part i pronounce it "wolsen".

I thought that it had some phonetics from nordic languages, making the C sound like K.
For example, in Welsh language wolcen is actually pronnounced wolken, and I thought that as the game has it's norse mithology influences, phonetics would be some of them.

the german W . is pronounced as V ! so it could be Volken, which is an old god in the german mythology.. :D maybe..

Maybe because there is no "K"?! "Wolcen" has a C, not a K ... maybe that's how...
Necro'd a 2 year old thread for that. Well done! :steamfacepalm:
