I am almost done with Echoes of Wisdom and thought the map was the perfect size for the game. I always felt like Breath of the Wild’s map was too large for what was offered. Tears of the Kingdom kind of made that worse by doubling the map underneath and having it mostly be empty.
I really wish the ground based zonia vehicles were useful underground, 30s in and you run into a cliff and need to abandon your vehicle. I ended up exploring most of the game by foot. I do honestly think shrinking the map by 50% to being everything closer would have made the game more enjoyable.
