WoW isn't that big. My CoH character, if he could sneak into WoW, could sumerjump from one end of WoW to the other in about 3 jumps.

It just seems big because (1) you move slow; (2) you are constantly hemmed in by obstructions like mountains and cliffs and impassable forests; and (3) it makes you take a circuitous path everywhere you try to go.

To be fair, Guild Wars use (2) and (3) big time to make maps feel larger as well.

What is cool is that something happens everywhere in the GW maps, you have to fight your way through them.
