The AC city's are HUGE so idk if they could be that big, remember in AC ( ive only played and am talking about, brotherhood by the way) 90% of tht game was in rome and thats it, so it would be hard for skyrim to have gigantic citie like that.
I agree some cities like whiterun couldve been a little bigger, but as for the cities the only ones i dont get lost in are winterhold, whiterun, and windhelm, ( the other cities i havent spent the amount of time i have with these three though.) for example i thought solitude was pretty darn big, i think the little cities, like winterhold, and other non-capital cities coudve been bigger, but the main cities are pretty good size.
I like your idea of two-three really big cities, but in my eyes, maybe three-four cities slightly bigger then solitude. And the noncapitol cities more the size of whiterun.
Also the villages like riverwood and ivarstead and those type of cites: they couldve been a little bigger i feel like winterhold size, or have them be the size they are but, more of them, and less empty space in the wild.
