Here's I gathered the whole region in a landmass to give you a better idea of the total size
Keep in mind that the red square holds in a screenview, which means that in total, the region is roughly the size of Lumiose or the Kanto Safari zone
You're missing the bigass island that's gonna rise out of the middle of the four islands
>>26577720
When you put it that way, it actually looks bigger than any region so far.
It does feel small. I guess now is when we start speculating about going to Southern Kalos or some shit.
Looks pretty sizeable to me
>everything is actually densely together and no space is wasted
>that screen view is a huge zoom out
Seems fine to me
>durrrrr official art is an accurate to scale representation of the region
Reminder to get a load of this.
>>26577720
good size
if it were some ass it would be some noice ass
>>26577802
>that screen view is a huge zoom out
It's not, you can see buildings the same size as on other stylized maps
>>26577824
This map is so bad.
But yes, anyone with a brain can tell Alola will be huge.
>>26577824
Except this map doesnt show every building of the cities, while we already had the confirmation the Alola does by comparing with screencaps of the first city
Just to get a feel for how many areas we can squeeze out of this map:
>Beach Area
>Cliffs
>Forest Town
>Floating Town
>Volcanic Area
>Beach Area
>Seaside Town
>Beach Area
>Volcanic Area
>Surf Area
>Forest
>Volcanic Area
>Inland Town
>Docks Area or Town
>Beach Area
>Seaside Town
>Dark Forest
>Volcanic Area
>Ice Mountain
>Seaside Town
>Huge Surf Area
>Cliffs
>Mountain
>Seaside Town
I just went through from top left to bottom right and labeled as many unique areas as I could. Even being conservative, look at how many potential areas there are. I'm pretty happy with this map.
>>26577863
The Pokemon Center is also 4x smaller than the "lab" in the village. This map is not to scale.
The impression I get is that it's small in area, but compact and high in density. Compare it to >>26577824 and Kalos actually looks rather sparse.
My concern is that there don't appear to be any longer routes. Cities and towns are so close together it's hard to feel truly enveloped by the natural surroundings. Though the southern end of the Big Island and the Legendary island as a whole seem pretty ripe with cool features.
>>26577876
Don't forget there will be Electric cave/power plant hidden in there as well for Magnazone and Probopass as well.
>>26577876
I wonder how early we'll get to visit a volcano.
>Just as you're about to enter Victory Road, an ancient fifth island rises from the ocean
>Living on it are an ancient tribe and all new Pokemon
>Battle Frontier
>New Battle Facility
>>26577973
No no it's where N's castle summer home arises out of the ocean.
>>26577863
>>26577892
Here's what I mean
Kalos map is not on scale and simplified, while the Alola one is an exact depiction of the overworld
why are you acting as if this is a literal representation of the region and not an enlarged, simplified representation of the region like the Kalos map which is easier for the focus audience to wrap their minds around?
>>26577876
you neglected to mention the giant tree on the far left island which you can go inside
>>26578012
Because we have the proof it's an actual depiction of the region and not a simplified map like Kalos
See >>26578002 and every threads with people placing screencaps on the map
>>26578002
>""""""""""exact""""""""" depiction of the overworld
>Buildings and cave and beach in the back are nowhere to be seen
>>26577905
Look at how zoomed out the buildings are in OP's map. It doesn't look anywhere remotely small in area, in fact I would say it's both dense and large.
>tfw nobody's noticed he cut huge chunks out of the islands for this image
There is a Total of 15 pokemon centers. Weve never had so many. This is going to be the biggest region weve had yet
>>26577973
>mfw gen 6.5 fags are probably going to use this
>>26578110
He didnt though
He only left out the artificial league island
Reminder there are places behind the mountains, that there are forests and things with obvious entrances, and mountain dungeons. This is one island and it has a shitton of walking areas.
>>26578117
The new overworld style will make it feel as the smallest region we ever had, mark my words
>>26577720
>Smallola
I like how tiny you made your image to try to "prove" your point.
Anyone capable of judging the size of the buildings on your map and then scaling from there can see that the combined landmass of the region itself is perfectly sizeable.
>>26578002
That bottom screenshot is fucking huge and people are complaining about size?
>>26578165
Dude, it's the biggest city of the game, and it takes easily 10% of the total map
>>26577973
As a counterpoint, it's just a convenient way to depict an archipelago with out making a map super long or tall. If you notice, the horizon is super distorted too, like we're looking at everything through a fish eye lens. So the islands themselves may not be meant to be as curved around, emphasizing the empty space in the middle, in "reality." I would say the islands only curve around like that so the region can still be an island chain without having to make a map twice as wide as it is tall, like you would do with a map of the real Hawaiian islands.
>>26578117
HOL UP
Look at >>26578093
There's another Pokecenter in there that we don't see in the map.
THERE MAY BE MORE TOWNS THAN WE THINK
Look at the Kalos map, I forget the name of the town but the one with the aquarium near where you get the fossils (you know the one) doesn't look like a full town at first glance but it actually is. I can see several small buildings like that in the Alola map that could be full fledged towns.
>>26578184
>and it takes easily 10% of the total map
Not him, but you're a fucking idiot.
Even a cursory glance at the city in OP's pic will show that it doesn't amount to 1/10th of the map at all.
>>26578184
>10%
At least be subtle with your bait.
>>26577824
God, this map looks like such fucking dicks. Like, not even its design, the art for it is just straight horse shit.
FUCK
THEY'RE RIGHT, ALOLA IS SMALL AS SHIT
HERE IT IS COMPARED TO HOENN, BUILDING SIZES PROPORTIONATE
WE'RE FUCKED
>>26578262
I chuckled at least.
>>26578262
>small beach hut in hoenn is the same size as the largest buildings in alola
kek kek baito baito desu sempai
>>26577720
Didnt it say in the trailer there are 7 islands?
>>26577720
Good analysis, OP. I'm sure you'll be able to travel that entire island from east to west in three screens.
>>26578217
>Look at the Kalos map, I forget the name of the town but the one with the aquarium near where you get the fossils (you know the one) doesn't look like a full town at first glance but it actually is. I can see several small buildings like that in the Alola map that could be full fledged towns.
It's already been explained there >>26578064
The Kalos map was simplified, while the Alola one is an exact replica of the overworld
>>26578197
This image here. The islands, on this in game map, are much more spread out than in the artwork map.
>>26578262
this thread is a great bait overall
>>26578277
It wasnt ironic though
Look closely at buildings, they're the same size in both pics
>>26578262
>building sizes proportionate
>the skyscrapers in your comparison pic are even smaller than the Pokemarts in Hoenn
>>26578283
there are - the main islands (1, 2, 3, 4), the island off to the left of the farthest left island (5), the seed island in the top right (6), and the manmade league island (7)
>>26577720
you are fucking dumb.
>>26577720
>>26578262
This thread is fucking cancer.
>>26578002
That's a city. What about the routes?
>>26577720
Are you a woman? Because you have no sense of spatial reasoning whatsoever.
>>26577720
>Once you cut out all these routes, you can see how small the region is.
>>26578262
dumbed down gen after gen. fuck it.
Remember
Size doesnt matter!
>>26578428
Are you one of these cretins who think that the water between islands are routes?
Fucking retard, it'll be boat cutscenes
Surfable routes are the ones with the rock borders (circled pic related)
>>26578292
>DURRRRRR
There is no proof that Alola is 100% copied building by building, even then there is no reason to think it is to scale.
>>26578319
Sevii 2.0
>>26577973
>story will lead on about 4 stones
>one on each island
>collect all four and toss into some volcano
>5th island emerges
>>26578299
This is way better.
It actually looks like the place it's supposed to be
>>26578262
UMBRELLAS FROM SPACE
>>26577824
God I fucking hated everything about kalos, except the native pokemon. can we just agree to all completely forget this region geographically?
>>26578262
is it supposed to be abenis?
>>26577824
>that desert with the randomly circular outline
i cry every tiem
Your missing the islands clearly covered the clouds only subtly
Also you have to keep in mind there's a lot of indoor/in cave areas, one that is clearly going underwater
>>26577824
The desert is so out of place holy shit
I would've been fine with it if the fucking corner wasn't a grass area
>>26577720
Here's what I'm going to do. You, and all the stupid cucks that think for some retarded reason that Alola isn't the biggest region we've ever had are getting screen capped. And when the game comes out, and you all are fucked, I'm gonna post it all in a huge thread and we're going to laugh and laugh and laugh until you never come on this godforsaken board again.
>>26577720
First of all the map isn't to scale.
And second of all the area you've bordered off is incorrect, that's just the top of the hill. Roughly a quarter of the rectangle.
>>26580325
I didn't have a huuuge problem with the region in-game but that map artwork is atrocious. There's absolutely no transition between the different biomes and it looks so random and sporadic.
>>26578481
Source: I-I think so! I guess! It's a rough estimate based on jack shit!
There's also alot of empty space between places in the current games if you look at their maps. It seems like there's alot less of that empty space in Alola, which makes it seem smaller comparably
>>26580445
It's obvious though, dumbass
I bet you were one of these dudes denying Hawaii...
>>26580446
This.
>>26580379
This. At least Unova's desert was surrounded by cities and buildings, that shit in Kalos is just literally slapped on.
>>26580636
Unova's desert was dumb as shit
Hoenn's was the only that made sense
