Perhaps I should have specified only the later Ultima games? I'm not quite sure that having separate map zoom levels is the same thing. In Ultima VII the world is decidedly smaller than it used to be because the towns are on the same map as the rest of the world.
I'm not necessarily against traveling on a world map.
VI handled it better than VII.
