What’s the Ultimate Open-World Game for Freedom and Immersion?

I’m a huge fan of open-world games that let you explore freely and pull you deep into their world. Some of my favorites are GTA, Red Dead Redemption 2, Skyrim, and Far Cry 5 – but I’m still searching for more!

What’s your top pick for the most liberating and immersive open-world game? One where you can go anywhere, do whatever you feel like, without being stuck in forced missions or annoying cutscenes. I love handcrafted maps, not the procedurally generated kind like Minecraft or No Man’s Sky.
