Exactly this
I couldn't handle myself for exploring the world of X cause it's so beautiful even it's a game on a LEAST powerful console like Wii U
You couldn't found a better open world game on last genre or current gen like this except GTA, with a lot of monsters, creatures, buildings and a massive open world without ALMOST loading screen
It's about art direction, graphical and optimize, not just graphic alone

The Witcher 3 says hello.
Maybe not better. But certainly not worse. Still have to finish Xenoblade X to make a final judgement on this. But I will say that as of now, The Witcher 3 is my GOTG. Everything is cohesive and organic, and there's a definite sense of wonder is the exploration of its world. Xenoblade, while being big, feels more barren. Landscape does look great, very fantastical in design, but it's also very static compared to The Witcher 3. And just so you know, there's barely any loading in it as well, unless you fast travel or switch between the two continent. Which is all unobtrusive for a game as packed with content.
So no. As of now, I do not agree that Xenoblade X is the saviour of all open world games as you seem to imply.
If I'd have to guess, I'd say you would have to actually play both to know any of this... But who am I kidding?
Xenoblade X sure looks pretty. For a Wii U game. It seems to push the hardware more than any titles that have come out for it so far. But I don't agree that it looks better than any other open world game other than GTA5.

I played both GTA V, The Witcher 3 and Xenoblade X, and here is my thought
Rockstar did a good job with their underwater map, which most open world game nowaday like AC or TW are following
CD Projekt Red bring a complicated conversation system and blend good story into an open world game which I really impressive but combat made it less interesting for me, but it's still good by keep me entertaining to the end
Monolith Soft showed their talents by working with weak hardware like Wii and Wii U, neither 480p or HD, they still made me surprise whenever I play their games with how good looking and best optimization it could be
