Mira was pretty big, but BotW has it beat easily, mostly due to being filled with the same rehashed garbage. Mira is the superior world, easily, due to its variety of landscape elements and more interesting layout.

Yeah, it is, but I think that game has the largest density of bullshit per square inch of any game in existence, and paired with its flatout broken mess of "mechanics" will still ensure that the ensuing experience is one that you won't ever forget.

I'd say they're comparable without factoring in the ocean. Mira just feels a bit smaller because your movement options are so much more efficient and you're not a midget.

IIRC, Mira is larger but Hyrule is more compact and dense so there's more ground to cover (remember that a lot of Mira is just empty waters). Add to that the fact that there's no giant robots in Zelda to quickly traverse terrain and I think overall Hyrule is larger in terms of surface worth exploring.

The railroad was a recent addition, it's likely that they didn't want to disrupt local wildlife and created an underground path that stretches all the way from the coast of Cherrygrove to the mountains

Converting the scale of the map to the real world japanese equivalent I'd guess that the underground section isn't more than like 20 miles long at most and the only awkward part for anyone onboard would be the steeper incline once you reach the mountain

Yeah but to this day I still think RO is one of the games that has done open world and exploration better, if not the best one to do it. I mean, just searching new areas and the best places with enemies you could kill but also get good amount of exp is a great feeling of exploration, rewarding too. Being new to the game and how everything is open so you could enter an area where monsters would rape you next to a map with caterpillars and shit.
So many years and other games can't get that same feeling.
