The map size is deliberately small...? I have a friend who likes SimCity better than The Sims, and he kept complaining how small his city was and that he couldn't fit any more buildings. I thought he was just overreacting or couldn't be space-efficient, but when I saw his city, the map did look small. :/

I hate the idea of having to depend on other cities. After all, not many people around me play SimCity, so I couldn't get the feeling of "helping each others."
