This is the perfect truth. Playing Oblivion truly was an adventure in every sense of the word.
I love that game so damn much.

Oblivion was awful for exploration, it had the most sterile and empty openworld I've ever played in a game.

I'd say you (and many others, unfortunately) don't get it. Oblivion had huge land mass. A true open world game musn't be filled with stuff around every corner, that just feels artificial. Of course it all depends on the setting. A big city game like GTA naturally should be more dense with stuff than RPGs that take place in green landscapes.
I love the exploration in Oblivion. The scale, balance and density between locations, encounters and stuff to do is almost perfect.

I love Oblivion, too, but unfortunately, we're in a minority 
I would put Oblivion truly in the RPG category, though. And I would still put Shadow above it.
