I'm playing through Horizon Zero Dawn Complete on PC and it's a lot of fun, I'm usually not into these kind of games. I think the responsiveness of the combat, and the ability to make it as difficult as I usually want my games to be, is fun. But it's really just Far Cry 3 again. Enemies will generally only spawn in their big icons on the map. The best fights are in set piece moments or quests. You'll rarely see random people fighting random robots just because they crossed paths, etc.

I've played a few games that do it well (STALKER comes to mind) but I feel like "AAA sandbox game" has been a near identical formula for as long as I can remember which is a collect-a-thon mixed with a skinner box.

A warred after tribal land mixed with marauders, allies, bandits, killer robot dinosaurs and so on should be a warzone. But everything waits for you to be around. Witcher 3 comes to mind for this too. I dunno. Maybe this is why sandbox games aren't for me and I prefer tighter knit games.
