Depends on which map size you’re talking about and what you mean with “after the final release”.
Yes, the map size will be bigger at release date. But also the map size will expand with every act. I hope that’s the answer you were looking for.
thats what i meant… it will get bigger with every new Act/Chapter, well i hope so!

Plus, by the time you finish doing absolutely everything, act 2 should be out.
I love the map. more detailed and everything. In this map you can WALK… in other games you must run because theyre too boring.
so I think this map is pretty big
The map size is bigger than most popular rpgs out there. They have made it much larger than what OP is saying.
