How big do you think the cities will be?

They call them "massive" but how large will that be? I am guessing it will be like the Imperial City in Oblivion but more open, thus making them feel larger.

I don't think they will be anywhere near as "massive" as people think they will be.

Not as long as the map size is the same as Oblivion... :confused:

The cities will probably be the same size as anvil/leyawin with one big city like the IC.

If hte map is the same it will have to be aroudn the same size.

so I'm not getting too hyped over it.

Good points, but they might utilize vertical space to make them seem larger.

I just came up with several ideas to make it with the same amount of space.

TO make cities livelier I mean. For starters the cities can grow upwards or downwards.

But all I really want is to have more people around the city and less guards.

If the only transition we have to go on is any indication, then whatever it is, in terms of actual and interior size, smaller and fewer than we would expect.

I'm guessing Anvil-sized, and not necessarily even in terms of expanse.

I thought in one of the Game Informer articles that they said each city would exist in its own worldspace, but I could be wrong, if that is so then they may be as massive as we think they will be, upwards of 50-60 buildings each. They did say that the smaller towns will have more than 10 buildings each, so I would think the major cities will have more than 50 buildings.

eh i dont think theyll be that big. the biggest i would assume is the empiral city. hopefully the citys will be apart of the world instead of being closed off (hopefully like morrowind cities)

I don't think they'd deliberately use a word like 'massive' and then fob us off with something as weedy as Chorrol or Bruma :confused:
