so mount othrys irl is 22 miles wide and 16 miles tall, as you can see on the map the width is more than twice the height so its not totally to scale.
from windrow to the entrance of mount othrys (under the temple) its around 2000 meters, as from the storyline portion (however its probably a bit more since the first part only leads you to the vicinity of mount othrys)
roughly speaking it looks to be around half the length of othrys, so my estimation for the length of othrys is ~4000m. now, people can calculate it more specifically by going in game and using complicated math but im not doing that lol
now, for the height of the map. from one of soleils early videos, you can see that from darkpine to ravenna is around 3.5k meters, and (again) using very rough estimation i put the maps height to be around 8000m, give or take a few thousand.
taking othrys’ game to irl scale, which is 4000:22, the height of the bronze sea would be around 44 miles.
I’m pretty sure there are some story parts where we sail from place to place and the dates have a couple days between them, implying some places take a few days to sail between (don’t have my laptop to check rn but I’ll try to later). I’m sure in-world the sea’s a lot larger than the game map
it is, you cant tell me palo has thousands of people living in it and like 10 houses to support them all
and you also cant tell me all those ravenna ships suddenly lose us in the 700M stretch betweeen ravenna and windrow
Wait a minute… Didn’t he lie when he say hes goin to palo? Cause what i remember is he went to the dark sea to find the death curse (but morden snatched it lol)
You could also try to use the meters distancing via quest markers and create a ruler legend for the map, then calculate the approximate distance via that since this estimate seems a lil smol for a sea, its more like just a large lake
Calvus went for 1 insanity 5 dark sea adventure, during which he fought 10 legendary atlanteans, chased by a fleet of 50 Atlantean brigs, keep getting struck by lightning and looted 100 islands before returning at the east of whitesummit, which then he sailed his 1hp ship and accidentally crashed into the stepstones. He then decided to swim to Palo and during that time he almost ran out of stamina. Bronze legion ship come in clutch and brought him to Palo Town
If distance was realistic, sure the game would be more immersive but It would take like 30 minutes to get from islaand to island, the game would become the turbulent seas.
