pacing my hype by mapping Leonida's geography (and dodging story spoilers)

I'm not doing a full media blackout, but I'm being surgical. Trailers 1 and 2 gave us enough geography to dissect for months if you're wired like me. I've been comparing the Leonida layout to Los Santos, and the scale difference is already staggering. Vice City proper looks dense, but the real playground is the surrounding state. Grassrivers to the north (feels like a beefed-up Paleto Bay meets Grapeseed, but greener), Mount Kalaga dominating the northwest, and the Keys snaking southwest. Port Gellhorn on the west coast seems like a proper secondary city, not just a Sandy Shores afterthought. Ambrosia to the east is still a total question mark.

My strategy: I avoid story breakdowns and character deep dives like the plague, but I can't resist map analysis. I've been sketching possible road networks based on trailer shots (the eastern coastal highway, the bridge sequence to the Keys). It keeps my brain busy without burning through the narrative. I even replayed GTA V just to study how they packed Los Santos. Leonida looks 2-3x larger, with way more biome variety. I'm not worried about burnout because the map alone will keep me exploring for years. I just hope there are plenty of unmarked trails and hidden coves (like the ones north of Mount Chiliad).
