I feel like game designers are increasing world size exponentially more than they are adding things to do.

Like over half the map in AC Origins is fricken empty.

I have PS4, PS3, Xbox One (with 360 compatibility), Wii U
Will have PC and Switch eventually

(This topic really isn't about me, it's about gamers in general).

I have most of them, just curious what people would say

You mean developers would rather show off technical prowess over actually good game design? This is surely a new development that hasn't happened in pretty much every western AAA release the last 8-10 years (and a fair few Japanese ones)!

If you like turn-based, Divinity Original Sin 2 is really great

True

Skyrim, FoNV, GTAV, RDR

All good options, though I wouldn't lump GTAV in with the other ones you mentioned.

Morrowind is also excellent.

Elex is also a good open world rpg IMO.

Though there is like a 10 hour period where EVERYTHING kills you in a hit or two, and if you don't have the patience to get past that bump you won't enjoy the game.

Breath of the Wild is probably my favorite open world game in regards to there probably being something to do literally anywhere you can imagine going. Even if its just a shrine or korok seed.

Open world games are still amazingly popular. People just hate the lazy open world games that pop up. Ones that actually take time to develop interesting areas to explore and cool things to do - like Skyrim, Horizon, Witcher 3 and BoTW - are going to be popular.

Games that go "hey look how big our world is!" and then fill it with nothing but boring busy work like WoW, or nearly any steam early access "survival" game, or the typical Ubisoft game are going to get trashed, but it's not a condemnation of the entire genre deoxys

WoW is a terrible example, but youre right about the others. WoW is probably the most content-packed MMO ever.
