I was wondering, in the current HoT state (and not the huge PoF state), how big is the world map compared to GW1? I’ve never played it so I wouldn’t know, but on the wiki and historical map (that world map with the GW1 map layered onto the GW2 map) the GW1 map seems absolutely huge.

So as I said I do know about the historical map, but I’m not sure if both maps are on the same scale. What I mean by that is if you pick 2 points on that historical map and go from one to another in both games will it take the same amount of time to cross that distance?
