It looks like a PS2 or early PS3 game. The differences are striking. I played it on PS5 and this almost feels like a different game atmospherically. And it's not open world. There's a load screen when entering Hogsmeade and all the shops there also have load screen. But I hope it's still amazing for new players who only has a Switch

Open world is more about world/gameplay design then having load screens. Skyrim and Starfield are still open world even though there are load screens. Even Zelda has load screens for certain interior environments.

Yes but only the switch version has this problem. The original version there's no loading screen when entering different areas like Hogsmeade. Hogsmeade is like a zone in Switch version because of the loading screen. BoTW don't have loading screens for different areas, it's all accessible without a single load screen, except fast travel. But yes most open world games do have loading screens for interior environments like dungeons and buildings
