I love playing Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey but it is ridiculous to think we can, in 10 minutes, jog across islands that housed entire ancient civilizations.
So what is the game distance scale to real world?
1 Answer
I used Kephallonia to measure the game distance.
From one tip to the other is 1298 meters.
I used Apple Maps to route a similar distance on Cephalonia (as it is now spelled, I guess).
Apple Maps lists the distance as 41 miles.
41 miles is 65.983 kilometers. That is 65983 meters.
1298 / 65983 = 0.01967
65983 / 1298 = 50.8
So the scale of game world to real word is 1:50. If your character walks 100 meters then you yourself would have to walk 5 km.
To put it another way, the developers shrunk the real world to 2% of its original size.
