The thing that the fact of deserving anything actually defines involvement in the game and "replay value".
Like, if for a certain period of world time you and your group has not grown to achieve certain technologies/qualities/whatnot - there is no sense and motivation to continue play, unless you are roleplay village.

Yes, you can kill a mammoth by organizing a small squad, but without farming them you will be unable to build kiln, and compete in quality
Same with whales, dungeons, trolls, everything - most of game mechanics are so complicated, that can only be achieved with cheesing and other feature using, if you just remove them - you will leave completely not working game mechanics.

I think the size is right. I would even prefer slightly larger W and more continents. I would even don't mind larger differences among continent/islands, or "latitude" wise.

Larger worlds are nice. You can disappear into the frontier. :D

+1000 this
w8 was the best
you had a choice - interact with ppl or interact with wilderness... w9 with map-expansion gave us a hope, w10+ took off our freedom -we're forced to ineract, and you should keep in mind, that social interactions in this game are too common finished with the screen "you're dead"
but the whole thread is useless - devs won't ever make a world, where snail can't kill all the ppl

I believe he is kept around as a sort of practical joke.

There may be empty areas butting getting there is not always easy or intuitive to newer players or hermits. Personally I miss just walking for hours to finally find no civilization. :)

You should have been here at the beginning of the world. The vast majority of people spawned on the center continent, and you could not go anywhere without running into people. There were murders happening everywhere.

I do not have a clue why people are complaining about to small of map.
I took a screenshot of the game and as you can see there is plenty of empty space.
