I can't help but think that Cyrodiil seems quite small compared to Morrowind. Am I getting this impression only because it's possible to see that tall tower in the Imperial City from all over Cyrodiil, or is the game world smaller than it was in Morrowind?

In Morrowind I felt like I could travel in one direction for a long time, and my marker didn't move too much on the main map. In Oblivion however, I look on the map before doing a quest and think 'wow, it's going to take a long time to get there!'. But a few minutes or even seconds later I'm there.

Of course another thing that may give me this impression is that in Morrowind you never saw further than a short distance in any direction, while in Oblivion you can practically see 'as far as the eye can see'.

I'm not complaining or anything. After all we have the Oblivion realm to roam in too, as well as all the caves. And I truly love standing on a mountain somewhere in nice weather and see the tower and other cities and landmarks in the distance.

But I'm just wondering if anyone else have gotten the same impression as me?

We're definitely the exception when it comes to continuous play of the same game. It was designed for players of an average attention span

Maybe even Buffy´s level of attention span? biggrin.gif

There's nothing wrong with Buffy's attention span. She'd tell you herself but she got distracted by something shiny. Then she saw a butterfly and followed it for a time until, "Oooh, is that a waterfall I hear?"
