If you explore everything in Act 2 it is very large. If you just do the main quest and skip everything else its small.
Your choice on how to play.
Thanks, this doesn't even remotely begin to answer my question!
It’s also not true. I explored every inch of that map, and before Moonrise started at the perimeter, made the way around, and gradually moved toward the center looking for more content. I went in every cave and hole, opened every door, lock picked and broke into everything I could. Act 2 is SPARSE. I resolved every quest one could resolve in Act 2.
