I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
It's not the size, but how you use it...
Memes aside, I hope they make the world fun the explore with lots of meaningful content like dungeons and other cool places and meaningful rewards, basically giving the player a reason to explore the world and not just going from point A to point B.

Dunno about cars, but I would expect Thomas the tank engine showing up as a mount at some point on the PC version.

Imo maps were already too big like 2 gens ago, bragging about map size just makes me less excited for a game nowadays

It all depends on what's on the map. Having a really large map with the content to go along with it is pretty cool imo.

By the time you have everything planned out and ventured, you’ll come back to this and say, “that wasn’t so bad”.

This map size doesn’t even consider tombs and caves or whatever underground part of the world. Going to be insane. It’s going to put all open world RPGs on notice and, because of the combat quality, make them feel so dated and blah.

I would agree. But considering this is a FROM game I’m expecting every area to memorable and worth exploring

If it has online stuff like DS, that won’t work well.

I'm in the same boat leaning PC. I'm not going to preorder so I have time to see if there are optimization issues.

Exactly where I’m at . Leaning PC too, but I always fear optimization issues, especially FROM games, other than PlayStation platforms. Gina be hard to wait though, tbh. First game I’m looking forward to in a long time.

Weren't Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro nicely optimzed? Don't remember having trouble with those at the time.

go for PC if you care about mods. If not, consoles might give you a less cheater-filled multiplayer experience, if you care about that.

All of my devices run on SSD’s. That’s the least of my worries. Optimization is number 1. I got load times covered.

With constant dying and fast traveling around the world.... SSD load time advantages will be crucial.

Is this a typical "gamey" map or is it a lived in breathing world like say Witcher3 with towns, villages etc or is the map all points of interests quest areas

I remember in the 360 and PS3 days that developers used to boast about the size of the map and I suppose for technical reasons it was to a certain extent impressive to be able to create maps like that but I think it very quickly became an issue for games as seemed to become the goal but the gameplay itself was often in comparison to the larger maps.
I would imagine, and hope, that From would design the map around the gameplay and whatever size the map ends up being just feels right for this particular game.

Going by what I played and the numerous youtubers who played it even more, you have no reason to be "concerned"
One guy got over 70 hours out of the Network test.

How does your mind even go to Ubi when thinking of a FROM game? The word "different" doesn't even do the comparison justice.

I should of said..... with constant loading after invading and slaying poor victims.

Because the ubisoftian open world has been a plague the whole generation. I trust From Software though.

What’s double? 30 secs? 1 min?

I believe it was 5 vs 10.

If that's all it is (the purple part plus a little more where it's cut off) that's not really THAT large. For a Souls game, sure, it's big, but definitely not "incredibly huge" by any standard.
There were some theories that the map was actually the ring in the game's title, as in what we've seen so far is only one "side" of a ring-shaped map. Now THAT would be huge. Probably doesn't make sense though.
I do think the map looks weirdly elongated though, like it's a "corridor", which is pretty uncommon for an open world game. Good way to gate progression though, Tsushima did it pretty much exactly that way.
