I thought this was a "massively multiplayer game"

This game also has by far the smallest MMO world to have come out in a long time.
But the world is super tiny.

AGREED!

The game definitely could use more zones, but that isn't necessarily what makes a world feel tiny. I would say with the amount of areas and unique environments it has, that the world WOULD be big enough.... but...

teleporting and duty finder. This ABSOLUTELY KILLS world-size. I can sit in a chain in an inn room and run dungeons all day, don't even have to go outside. Also, teleporting to everywhere makes the world feel like tiny separate zones.

For being in the category of MMOG, this game has so many mechanisms that force people into solo play its ridiculous... the multiplayer right out of MMOG.

I hate to break it to you but the multi-player aspect, at least in the sense it once was in these games (as in far more "massive" in a meaningful sense), has already been taken out, by things like instanced dungeons, LFG tools that teleport you to the dungeon, faceroll easy open world content, the separation of PvP & PvE servers, etc... Basically most of the things that encouraged any meaningful interaction between people who did not know each other and encouraged community, MMOs now are played more like solo or co-op game, with a sort of weak level of larger interaction on top of that, with the odd rare exception like EVE Online.

Most MMOs these days simply fail to live up to the name, which is why the genre is such a stagnant mess and the community has degraded to an all-time-low.

P.S - Playing with your wife is merely one rung up the ladder from playing solo, in terms of an MMO it is also ridiculous.
