I still do not like open world games, and see then as mostly a way to artificially extend the life of the game by forcing the players to hoof it everywhere, and therefore, a larger and larger maps are nothing for me to get excited about.
HOWEVER, Bethesda I'd probably the only company to get open world right in my opinion, and I trust them on their promise that the map is similarly sized to oblivion, just packed with more content, which is what open world games should aspire for.

Meh. It needs to be scaled on the level that Morrowind was. For an entire province it'll always feel too small.
Only after I see a satellite view of the map, will I believe. It's a cool looking map, but the Fable 2 and 3 maps looked just like this.
Ok the level of want is getting ridiculous, just take all of my money and leave me alone for a year.
Winterhold is my first goal, and it also has the displeasure of being near a crapton of mountains. I smell a climb...
What's the scale on this thing...? What if it only takes like 5 minutes to cross the map? That'd suck.
I like the old world feel to this map but wish I knew the scale of the map. I would like to know how long it would take to run from one edge of the map to the other without a mount.

Ill tell you right now to go ahead and believe it...If you can draw the conclusion from the fable 3 map that it will be small because fable 2 was then you can draw the conclusion from this map that it will be huge because oblivion, fallout etc were

What are you talking about? Have you even played an Elder Scrolls game to know what the worlds are like?

@Drakengard Except you don't play the entire province of Morrowind, you only play at VVanderfell, which is a district of Dunmeri. Yeah I know the game was still very big, but I couldn't help but to correct you, sorry. ;)
If Dragon Bridge isn't made of real dragons, I will shake my fists at Bethesda, then hire modders to make it so.
Skyrim is about as big as Vvardenfell, so I'd imagine this'll be pretty huge; this map is vague, anyways.

The sudden shift in humour doesn't work. I think you should look at your old work and see what made it great. Until you return to form, I'll be boycotting everything related to you.

I would have to agree with Chongomaster and say that your sudden shift to low-brow, scatological humor is inane and brings little to the discussion
Couldn't get into Oblivion, never tried Morrowind, but I loved Fallout 3 and New Vegas. I think what held me back from Oblivion was that the setting felt so generic, nothing really drew me in. Just looking at Skyrim's map though, you can see it has much more character just by the names of the locations. The art direction and enemy creatures I've seen so far all look much more interesting as well.
Hopefully this will be the game that will let me see what all the ES fans love about this series.

That's my point. Morrowind was just Vvardenfell. Skyrim will feel much smaller like Oblivion did because they didn't hold to the same scale.
That's why a mod like TR will end up making the entirety of Morrowind feel amazing while Oblivion still feels small and dull to the point where they literally had to cut out cities that should have been on the map.
