Why don't more open world action/RPGs have real-time camping mechanics? It became very popular in modded skyrim over a decade ago but actual game devs rarely bother with it.

People like playing the game.
Sitting around and waiting to get to play the game isn't fun.

Reductionist low IQ thinking. Camping can be tied into useful mechanics such as cooking for bonuses, crafting/maintaining gear or supplement survival features such as needs. It adds an extra layer of immersion to an adventure that many appreciate.
