re: Does size matter?

0
Somebody posted a nice thread on MMORPG.COM discussing the various MMO world sizes. It is an interesting comparison of world sizes showing that size doesn't always matter in terms of playability.

As a general overview, they found from largest to smallest:

  1. Star Wars Galaxies (100 x 9 square miles or km?)
  2. Lord of the Rings Online (496 square miles)
  3. Guild Wars (218 square miles)
  4. World of Warcraft (without expansions) (73.25 square miles)
  5. Rift (25.5 square miles)


Read the entire thread here...

Size doesn't matter, it is what you do with it that does.

I mean you can have an enormous game world but if you don't have it packed full of content or it doesn't have the right feel to it, you'll bore your player base right out of the game.
