Not that guy. But the problem is Final Fantasy does. It tries to have comedy and dramatic moments. But the tone and build up to both are very poorly done. And then sometimes they try to blend both together. So the game has been building for the last 10 hours to this super dramatic fight scene or character death. But literally 5 minutes before or after is another "comedy" scene that completely kills it. Or the characters are doing Naruto acrobatics and breaking immersion.

Final Fantasy is made for 12 year olds who think they're playing a game with super deep tone and writing.

Not really. There's just a large hub with busywork. It's not open in the sandbox sense. Hell, I wouldn't even really call Breath of the Wild open. In my opinion, the world itself (I.E. enemies, NPCs) has to have the potential to wander the world and interact with itself as much as the player does, and in games like these, they don't. Everything is scripted in its little corner and can't leave, it just sits there, waiting for you, all the time. Just because there's no load screens doesn't make it open.
I don't think people give enough credit to random encounters/spawns and triggered world events that require ambiguous thresholds to achieve. If the world isn't evolving with (You), then what's the point? Even sand blows with the wind, but these "sandbox" games just sit still like cement. Embarrassing.

It really wasn't. The combat was worse than [OTHER GAME] and all it really had was style. It was quite literally praised (along with FF7) for its "narrative depth" I.E. its prospects as a moviegame.
Which is ironic in retrospect. I mean fuck The Last of Us, but those niggas at Naughty Dog didn't create this bullshit, and Uncharted 3 multiplayer was funner than any dogshit Square or Nintendo EAD has produced this century.

If an open world game is just a non-linear (or non-linear-esque) world you can move around in, find locations and items and battles and whatever off the beaten path, then open world games have literally existed since the first Final Fantasy. Clearly, there seems to be something wrong with the definition, or it's nowhere near as "impressive" or "complex" as the industry props itself up to be.
If I made a game with a relatively small open box in the middle, and it only has "the town" in the back and "final area" in the front, and scatter whatever items and quests or whatever in the small box, is that open world?

Elden Ring proved that not even From software can save the open world genre. It is by far the worst aspect of the game. The world is mostly empty, filled with reused assets and dungeons that give you fuck all for loot. I kept feeling like I was wasting my time exploring.
Even God of War and its hub based approach felt more rewarding to explore.
And yes I am a Fromfag. DS3 is my second favorite game with Sekiro being my favorite.

Rebirth is the best game there but I don't know if it counts as open world. It's semi-open world with it's large, densely packed zones but you're essentially still looking at the traditional level structure right up until the very end of the game where it "opens".
The open world aspect was the worst part of Elden Ring, there was a lot of copy pasted dungeons and towers, and most of the environments weren't very fleshed out. I don't think it benefited at all from the format change.
SotC is just a meh game imo.

objectively, you need to be including some Rockstarslop to the conversation

are you fukken retarded? The best open world games are the games that have defined the genre. Why do you think every cuck dev wants to even try to make an open world game? Ask yourself this question. Seriously.
Answer is, the open game world became a craze after few games built with it as a core element of their design were super popular and made shitload of money. Everybody wants to copy.
True list of goated open world games is:
open world MMOs: Ultima Online, Everquest, etc.
Minecraft
GTA Series, esp. Vice City, San Andreas, and V.
That is it. These games were making money hand over fist over the past decades even after falling off mainstream such as online mmos. And so it trickled down to the single player so much, that every dev tried to incorporate it into their games.
TL;DR: Because industry needs to make money. And you make money with open world games for decades now. Minecraft and GTA V are the best selling videogames of all time. They're the true open world GOATs.

Just like any modern day shooter was born out of DOOM and Quake, so did every open game world is born out of 90's open world MMO's, then world of warcraft, then minecraft and gta. You just can not deny facts. There are/were so many good open world games. here is another example:
Yakuza. Yakuza has a small world, but it is packed with shit to do. Your cucked ring is empty as fuck.
Minecraft is also packed with content because you can interact with everything and modify everything inside of the world. None of the shit you have listed even comes close.
Minecraft was released in 2010's by the way, all the zoomies have played it. Gen Alpha tried it out. It's as far from unc games as you can possibly get.
True unc games are goats like Super Mario.

MMOs aren't even open world games imo, just big areas with no loading screens.
I would argue that open world games need mechanics that warrant the open world, like RDR having hunting and dynamic events, that makes it one of the pioneering open worlds.
SOTC having exploration which enhances the mood of the game is a lesser example.
GTA having cops that chase you, NPCs that interact with you, and a city you need to learn the layout of is a good example too.

the events and content in mmos isn't just questing and hunting/farming mobs. Other players are. Not even just the PvP aspect of them. Making friends and trading are a big part of MMOs.
TL;DR: Player interaction is a big part of dynamic and unpredictable content. Short of future super dynamic videogame worlds ran by AI nothing compares.
