Am I the only one that thinks Alduin's Wall is really, reall

I just can't help but think that every time I go to Sky Haven Temple. The Wall is so small! Long, sure, but not much taller than my character. I remember first reaching this place, and thinking about the extra tight camera angles from the Skyrim trailers, and I expected to see an enormous recreation of that. Maybe having a canol of oil stretching across the bottom of it to light it up properly (another problem I have with Sky Haven Temple: Terrible lighting). Esbern looks around, not seeing the wall and upset by this failure, until you activate the oil with a spell or torch and WHAM! Giant wall worthy of depicting the end of days and the prophecy of the World Eater's return! I know it only took 6 years to make according to the lore, but it seems like it would have been better to up the time spent on it and make it more impressive.

Anyone want to weigh in on this?

Doesn't seem small to me at all. It's perfect. Beth nailed it.

5 blades isn't enough people when you have a temple of that size
Just because esberns old ass self is prolly losing his sight doesn't mean we should all have a hard time seeing things cuz its fkn dark
Half of the torches in the temple aren't lit
Naax is a nice guy, nobody is going to kill him
Mjoll keeps killing the other recruits during training in the courtyard
Esbern speaks of a library in the temple, that bookshelf is not a library
Delphene doesn't even wear blades armor
Delphene is also a [censored]
