I think we should be looking to measure content density and quality vs just size these days. NMS and Starfield are huge, but 99.99% empty with lots of copy paste. Maps like Horizon, Days Gone, or Red Dead 2 are decently big but are mostly human made with a high level of quality content density.
Size of the maps is size of the maps if it is quality of content is quality of content. And by the way i agree in the case of Starfield that most of the map is empty, but in the case of NMS is different, most of the content is procedurally generated using lots of coding an calculations. It's possible that the content does start to repeat itself after some time, but at this point you would most likely be burn out by NMS and this would most likely wouldn't happen to you do the the size of the game... By the way, the galaxy show here is just ONE of the 256 galaxies of NMS, wich indeed makes NMS way bigger than Starfield too...
In no mans sky all is percentage generated so you will never see "copy n paste" the only thing wich is copyed are the space stations wich have different colours but in ground there are identical. Like minecraft: in mc are also every tree, stone usw percentage generated exept the structures so there are similar (sorry for my bad english 😅)
Look it up starfield is so much smaller than No man sky and no man sky has 255 galaxies 18Quadrillion or 18,000,000,000,000,000 planets your measurements are wrong. if a player were to visit one planet per second it would take almost 600 billion years to visit them all.
Yeah but the difference is Started is an actual map and No Man's Sky is randomly generated and isn't a complete map you can look at just like Minecraft. If the map is procedurally generated then it simply shouldn't count as "map size" since the engine essentially just creates more map as you go along. Again, it's not like you can look at the actual map as a whole since my No Man's Sky map would look different than yours.
Yaman says that if you where too go outside the world border of minecraft and use a mod so it doesnt crash you could go too 10^127(the universe has 10^80 atoms) i would compare it to something but that number is just to big
@@elvegeta1135no sir, you get wrong the idea... NMS has 256 galaxies, since you can play the game online that means all those 256 galaxies .must be available all time, wich in turn makes the NMS map way bigger than Starfield.
NMS and Starfield both are small when compared to elite dangerous on the fact that their worlds are tiny in comparison. Starfield you can't go more than a few km before you have to fly up and land, and nms has tiny planets. On elite dangerous you can take the srv and physically travel the circumference of a planet or moon, with travel time being real. Want to go to Hutton orbital in the alpha centauri system? Make sure you have a full tank of fuel and go get a book
In no mans sky there are smaller planets and smaller solar systems but in nms there are over a 100 galxies so In comparison both are About the same size (sorry for my bad english 😅)
The largest would definitely be space engine since it’s a 1:1 of the observable universe and has millions of galaxies each with billions of planets. Although it’s more of a simulation and not much of a game.
Yes totally, it's soo full of content and interactions with the environment that it makes just a walk of 100 meters seem very huge. Unlike in these other games where you pass 1km by just driving on it.
That's not correct. When you are in the orbit of a planet, you can travel directly to the orbit of another planet in that solar system, but this takes several real hours! There is a video on UA-cam in which a woman shows how she did this by traveling through the solar system, from Earth (or was it Mars?) to Pluto, without using the grav jump (the loading screen...) and she says it took about of 7 hours (if I remember correctly) doing this. I already experienced this in a small scale, when I once had to go to The Eye space station, without using jump grav. It was an experience not to be repeated again.
@@letsplayskyrimle9391 all right. I'm willing to Grant that. However each solar system, is its own map which is separated with a loading screen, the same way each surface of every planet is its own map separated by a loading screen. But, with that in mind if only means that the largest map in starfield is only the largest solar system they have.... Which is still pretty big. So I suppose that makes you technically correct. According to Futurama in any case.
@@letsplayskyrimle9391you’re spouting rubbish, you can fly through the space, but it’s completely empty, the planets are just textures that the woman flew through, it’s nothing, in nms planets are actual part of the solar system, you can fly straight into them and land, fly around it, without loading screen, and you don’t need to spend several hours doing so because the game gives you tools to travel fast, so exploring is convenient. Christ, starfield is embarrassing, it’s baffling how some people can defend a 70 billion dollar company not being able to emulate a fraction of what an indie studio could do nearly a decade ago, how embarrassing of Todd, and you.

@@efxnews4776 no it doesn't game is bad ass haven't played in forever tho think im like on the other side of the galaxy on the edge of it took me 3 months lol
Man, I got really surprised by this, like, I didn't expect GTA v to be that big because the exploration made it seem much smaller, while Skyrim felt much bigger than pretty much every other game on the list.
NMS is incomprehensibly larger than Starfield and much larger than even E:D. Elite is 1:1 scale of the Milky Way, but NMS galaxies are roughly 1.6BLy in diameter with ~4B *regions*. And each region has between 200 and 600 stars, each with several planets. And there are 255 galaxies that you can reach and explore in NMS.
There is a mistake between the 2 larger maps (starfield x NMS), this should be: Starfield < Elite Dangerous < NMS. Starfield represents only a part of the Milky Way, but in Elite Dangerous have the full Milky Way in its map. NMS is a procedural galaxy generator, meaning it have infinte size! Every time you end the game you can create a new galaxy and keep the previous generated galaxies.
Elite Dangerous = 400 billion star systems in a 1:1 scale Milky Way. Planetary collisions, tidal forces, gravity and more are all meticulously simulated, backed up by real-world astronomical data. From spectacular anomalies such as twinned stars, to rare Earth-like planets capable of sustaining life, it results in the most awe-inspiring and realistic recreation of our galaxy ever designed.
Sorry no mans sky is still bigger, it has 256 galaxies to explore, this equivalent only accounts for one of those galaxies... yes those galaxies are more of the same but much can be said about traditional maps in a game as well
Probably because you explore every inch of it on foot or on horseback, rather than having a bunch of tiny sandboxes tied together by loading screens (looking at you, Starfield)
@@jacobsoleil2789 Yep, also there's so much variety, and exploration is rewarded quite a great deal. To think that the whole Caria Manor area (and Ranni's questline) is hidden behind a silly little fake wall blows my mind.
Because the horse is low af but try going from point A to B and track your time, you'll see that the distances are short and it's also pretty empty in between dungeons. Liurnia is just a giant swamp/lake with a few churches and castles here and there for example.
Eh...not sure about Starfield being above NMS, since NMS is relatively seamless, while Starfield uses instanced maps that are like 10km2 at most. Both technically have a next-to infinite map, but the way those maps are structured makes Starfield feel much smaller.
@@AvyCaesarValhalla has Norway, England, Paris, Ireland, Svartalvheim, Musphelheim, Asgard, Jotunheim, River raids, Vinland, Skye. Both great games but Valhalla is way bigger.
fuel nms are the 2 that have the most playable area that i know of out of the newer games but i think daggerfall was bigger than arena not sure as the oldest one i played was 3
The minecraft map is not 31.000.000 km. A minecraft world is 30.000.000 blocks and 1 block is 1 meter so the minecraft map is actualy 30.000 kilometers
30,000,000 blocks in one direction on one line though, i think you had the right idea It would be 60,000,000 for north and south combined + another 60,000,000 for east and west Making it 3,600,000,000,000,000 meters squared which = 3,600,000,000,000 km^2 Which is still wrong I probably did the math wrong, im still off from the video but i hope this makes more sense lol
Слои стоит учитывать как мне кажется. В том плане что в каких то играх можно перемещаться только по земле и например горы не доступны, в гонках к примеру нельзя доехать на вершину горы. В ассасинах есть паркур, который увеличивает площадь многократно. А в Forbidden West можно и плавать и летать и лазать по всем горам, что еще больше увеличивает карту. Да не сравнить с космическими, но все же тут наверное проще сравнивать в том насколько быстро можно добраться от начала к концу. Но в целом сравнение интересное.
For those wondering and I'm not even about to measure the over 1000 km size maps but for the 1000 km maps and those of you who are in the states, that's like driving from 1 end of Tx to the other either way... freaking crazy!!
yeah im still waiting on a fuel 2 before it got updated you used to be able to take any car/truck/bike in any race but i think it was a glitch still was fun i still watch the roostertheeth videos on when they did it in the background
There is one map missing, that of Elite: Dangerous, which has a size of 2,810,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 km², literally the size of our galaxy, making it the largest map of any game. It's a shame this wasn't taken into account.
I'm curious how they're trying to put 3D space games into a 2D map comparison. It's like comparing apples to notecards. Astroneer for example... the entire planet is explorable by digging.
@@JeovahLovesYoulet me explain, NMS has 256 galaxies, since NMS can be played online, that means on a server all 256 galaxies should be available any time, wich in turn make NMS map 256x larger than the single map presented here. By the way, NMS has 18 quintillions of world to be explored while Starfield has at most some 400, the rest are just sky boxes.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is way bigger than what you measured it by. You clearly never played the game and went to the top of Indian Reserved mountain and looked down. You can view almost the whole map and can also tell that it's way bigger than viewing the map when pressing start. You can't even see New Austin when you're on top of that mountain that's how huge the map is. You'd change your mind once you seen it yourself.
Elite is missing. The original game encompassed 8 galaxies with 256 planets each and these planets could be up to 7 light years apart. Apparently the game could have had 2 to the power of 48 galaxies but Acornsoft wanted to hide the fact that all galaxies were generated by mathematical procedures.
My favorite map was Zelda. Spent the most time just wondering and exploring without any real objective in mind and that was just in tears I did it in breath also. Second is San Andreas.
I feel like this should reflect playable size as opposed to the tiles km2 area. Hogwarts Legacy is definitely a larger playable size than GTA3 by a magical country mile.
Anyone else notice that Starfield was placed as bigger than No Mans Sky despite the number being smaller? Starfield: 15 sextillion No mans sky: 31.7 sextillion
1. Wildely inaccurate 2. Includes completely uninteresting garbage-tier games 3. Skips some of the best, most popular open-world games 4. Includes proc.gen bs Yep, it's another one of these videos alright.
Please! make a version with effective area, the vast majority of the maps have a large empty space, or just sea, inaccecible for the player, and this is what it makes them so huge. if you count just the player area, not in square miles but in real area, at least an estimative, the order will be very different!
The Arkham knight map isn’t just Batman Arkham knight. It’s Arkham asylum, Arkham city, Arkham origins, and Arkham knight together. So it’s way bigger than just 5km
Starfield is big for suee but it is also very empty. I’d say Fallout 4 is bigger than Starfield if you count on the places where there actually is something.
@@WhatThisSupposedToBe To be fair, we have vehicles in GTA games (excluding the DL1 DLC). In a game like DL where youre almost always on foot, wouldnt want it to be as big as a GTA game. DL and DL2 still feels large because of no vehicles. To put it into perspective, Im pretty sure taking and airplane in GTAV from the bottom of the map to the top would take way less time than on foot in DL2.
Kid before comment use your brain, DL2 map smaller then GTA 3. But Dying Light 2 have more detail can 80% can explore the building with many floors. This why DL2 look bigger then GTA 3.
Zelda should be bigger in fact, cause of verticality, as there's underground map which almost 1:1 to the normal + sky islands which are, idk, i'd say weight another 20-30% of "normal" map And seeing Starfield at the top with this useless map which is kinda there but makes 0 sense if funny Great work dude!
@@CapitaineNautilus ah, you referred to Zelda and their underground map, now that makes sense lol No I wasn’t saying that it was empty, I thought you compare to starfield
as a die hard zelda fan, i have to say that tears of the kingdom is actually 3 times as big than what is shown here because of the depths and the sky islands.

Simplesmente fantástico esse vídeo... Parabéns pelo trabalho, mas o mais importante, MUITO OBRIGADO! Nunca tive essa noção comparativa dos games. 🎉
Finally some recognition for the first Elder Scrolls Arena. It might not have been the best graphics. You could walk the entire distance of Tramriel.
Fuel was amazing an so many cars to gather an so much to see an find
yeah im still waiting on a fuel 2 before it got updated you used to be able to take any car/truck/bike in any race but i think it was a glitch still was fun i still watch the roostertheeth videos on when they did it in the background
There is one map missing, that of Elite: Dangerous, which has a size of 2,810,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 km², literally the size of our galaxy, making it the largest map of any game. It's a shame this wasn't taken into account.
This is 100% relative to the content.
Content over size matters more. Big map =/= Good game
Bro u forget to tell about eve online 🙃
I'm curious how they're trying to put 3D space games into a 2D map comparison. It's like comparing apples to notecards. Astroneer for example... the entire planet is explorable by digging.
Some of the bigger map felt small and some of the smaller map felt huge. I guess it has something to do with travel speed
STARFIELD??? NEVER!!!
Try it for yourself!
@@JeovahLovesYoulet me explain, NMS has 256 galaxies, since NMS can be played online, that means on a server all 256 galaxies should be available any time, wich in turn make NMS map 256x larger than the single map presented here.
By the way, NMS has 18 quintillions of world to be explored while Starfield has at most some 400, the rest are just sky boxes.
@@efxnews4776 it's procedure generated just like Minecraft! It ain't the same as a big map
Daggerfall?
Also technically NMS has multiple universe's so....
Bro elite dangerous has a 1 to 1 scale of the milky way galaxy.
dis glaubst du doch selber nicht
Have you ever looked at the star chart in Elite Dangerous?
Red Dead Redemption 2 is way bigger than what you measured it by. You clearly never played the game and went to the top of Indian Reserved mountain and looked down. You can view almost the whole map and can also tell that it's way bigger than viewing the map when pressing start. You can't even see New Austin when you're on top of that mountain that's how huge the map is. You'd change your mind once you seen it yourself.
Elite is missing.
The original game encompassed 8 galaxies with 256 planets each and these planets could be up to 7 light years apart.
Apparently the game could have had 2 to the power of 48 galaxies but Acornsoft wanted to hide the fact that all galaxies were generated by mathematical procedures.
My favorite map was Zelda. Spent the most time just wondering and exploring without any real objective in mind and that was just in tears I did it in breath also.
Second is San Andreas.
Ok, so a lot of this is wrong. Horizon Zero dawn and forbidden west are almost the same size and God of war Ragnarok is not an open world game
I feel like this should reflect playable size as opposed to the tiles km2 area. Hogwarts Legacy is definitely a larger playable size than GTA3 by a magical country mile.
01:13 the GOAT
I was gonna say it ❤
Anyone else notice that Starfield was placed as bigger than No Mans Sky despite the number being smaller?
Starfield: 15 sextillion
No mans sky: 31.7 sextillion
Where is american truck simulator?
Starfield: Largest map in existence, and not a single game in sight.
1. Wildely inaccurate
2. Includes completely uninteresting garbage-tier games
3. Skips some of the best, most popular open-world games
4. Includes proc.gen bs
Yep, it's another one of these videos alright.
Three cheers
True
which are garbage tier?
Please! make a version with effective area, the vast majority of the maps have a large empty space, or just sea, inaccecible for the player, and this is what it makes them so huge. if you count just the player area, not in square miles but in real area, at least an estimative, the order will be very different!
can you compare caseoh to these maps
There would be no maps
"This video has been sponsored by the makers of Starfield"
I don't think games like GoW Ragnarok and car games count. None of them actually utilize the entire map.
And Starfield being bigger than NMS...?? Lol
The Arkham knight map isn’t just Batman Arkham knight. It’s Arkham asylum, Arkham city, Arkham origins, and Arkham knight together. So it’s way bigger than just 5km
Starfield is big for suee but it is also very empty. I’d say Fallout 4 is bigger than Starfield if you count on the places where there actually is something.
Then NMS would not even be in this list.
There is always something in Fallout 4 ☺️
Crazy thing is AC Valhalla is that big without counting the Norway map
I remember having to walk for days in Everquest to get to the other side of the map.
And it keeps getting bigger. They're working on the 31st expansion.
Evochron Legacy: hold my beer darling. (Fully generating playground, extendable)
What's a beer darling?
Gta 3 is bigger than dying light😂😂😂
Dying light is more detailed than 3D liberty city
@@breadstick8502man, it doesn't make sense, a city in gta 3 isn't the size of a neighborhood in dying light
@@WhatThisSupposedToBe To be fair, we have vehicles in GTA games (excluding the DL1 DLC). In a game like DL where youre almost always on foot, wouldnt want it to be as big as a GTA game. DL and DL2 still feels large because of no vehicles.
To put it into perspective, Im pretty sure taking and airplane in GTAV from the bottom of the map to the top would take way less time than on foot in DL2.
Kid before comment use your brain, DL2 map smaller then GTA 3. But Dying Light 2 have more detail can 80% can explore the building with many floors. This why DL2 look bigger then GTA 3.
@@vtg1800 Sure, but even a child knows it's shameful and dumb to defend a 2015 map smaller than one from 2001.🤣🤣🤣
Did i overlook new vegas and the capital wasteland? I'd be interested to see how big the mojave was in particular comparatively
Zelda should be bigger in fact, cause of verticality, as there's underground map which almost 1:1 to the normal + sky islands which are, idk, i'd say weight another 20-30% of "normal" map
And seeing Starfield at the top with this useless map which is kinda there but makes 0 sense if funny
Great work dude!
Same for SkyRim, huge underground world.
@@CapitaineNautilus it was filled with some stuff at least, instead of literal empty barrens
But mechanics is similar yeah
@@Afdog Well, there were quests, resources to collect, enemies, various entrances/exits to look for. Not sure why you say it was empty...
@@CapitaineNautilus you mean endless empty starfield planet or what?
@@CapitaineNautilus ah, you referred to Zelda and their underground map, now that makes sense lol
No I wasn’t saying that it was empty, I thought you compare to starfield
World of Minecraft 💀
It would be better to compare these maps according to the space you can actually visit in the game.
What about Eve online?
as a die hard zelda fan, i have to say that tears of the kingdom is actually 3 times as big than what is shown here because of the depths and the sky islands.
Где игра Элита с галактикой Млечный путь, с её реальным размером в 100 тысяч световых лет, повторяю, световых, даже не километров.
А масс эфект андромеда?
Bro starfield is a LOT smaller than No Man's Sky lmao
I guess, you've to relate to the speed of the vehicle, i.e. the time it requires to cross the diagonal. In an ant simulator, 5 sq km would be insane
Mirage's map sise of playable area is 13km²
I'm pretty sure most of the measurements are wrong, like Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West, or of course No Man's Sky and Starfield.
What about dying light 2s second map?
Yo: Daggerfall ☝️🤓
Starfield: 🗿
What about Mass effect ? ;)
Probably way smaller than Starfield and NMS...
Where's Elite Dangerous?
Oh right, it's in the background of all of these. 😂
And here I thought Genshin Impact would make it's entrance.
Your nickname talk about you.
@@Elmajo000 i know right? hehe
@@Elmajo000 but why do you say it's cringe tho, Genshin Impact is a very big map if you played it once today
@@thecringeyboylol Genshin is a small map if compare with others games
@@Elmajo000 bigger than Fortnite?
2:36 That is NOT the Ragnarok map; That's the GoW 2018 map. And even then, it's only of Midgar, when both games have several maps.
And ARK?
Which is more important: vastness or fullness?
It was utterly mindblowing to me how small the map for Death Stranding was! Like, it's comparable to Spider-Man! Crazy, because that game sells you the idea you've trekked across the entire USA.
You only calculated land areas for AC Odyssey. If you include water area it is bigger than black flag.
