according to me i think the continent have been a bit oversized. still i think it looks really good (looks more alive then the old one and i like it), but the size, i mean there are places on the map were players never ever goes. like the northwest mountain, i know that its suppose to be used for questing in the future, but its a bit oversized. and the south part i dont know what to think off.
I would rater split it up and have like 2 continets. Why not divide it into one "old" (bigger) and one "new" (smaller). This is just an idea that pop't-up right now.
Or just bring back the old one and make it look modern (and more alive).
that would probelby be the best solution if this can be calld a problem, i would gladly take part and discuss how to change the storyline to fit the old overworld.
