Realm of Torment won't be the same, don't worry. I think the covered map is very tricky in hiding the actual appearance of each area.

It is now possible to see what parts of the map are explorable...barely.. The GW Japan official site has an image of a 100%(I think) explored map, except its only about 250x150 in size.. So when i said barely, i meant it. You cant make out the detail much, but you can see which parts are uncovered. Link to the page:http://www.guildwars.jp/event/c3/

ok this is a world map as it seems to have been interpreted from lore and gameplay.

Also I attached a mini map of Elona JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA of what the missions area looks like.

as you can see its less area then the original map... but it much more area then Cantha was...

But remember the Realm of Torment is not on that and is unmapable in its current form.

Edit: to fix the scale of Elona for world map... This seems to make more sense then the previous image...

You can see that a fully explored map is available. If Ingram has photoshop, or a similar program, it wouldn't be difficult to take a screenshot from the preview event, turn the gamma down on it, then add the explored areas from the fully explored map on the japanese guild wars site. Maybe that's what he did.

Those images you show makes me not want to buy the new Nightfall. I hope they add some areas like underworld and fow. If it wasnt for those areas and farming, I dont think I would ever keep playing this game.

So overall what is really there for Cantha? Small maps, lesser quests and horrible storyline? Overall Factions is just for the storage, 2 professions and AB (which take like half an hour to start, at least on kurz). Oh and those weekend events.. Sigh I hope there is some short of update like Sorrow for original.
