I'd disagree, Assassin's Creed IV is a 7th gen game with only a res boost, a more stable framerate, and minor settings upgrades over PS3/360. Compared to games built for the Switch it looks old.

No PBR, PS360 era lighting and shaders, low poly models, textures designed for less than 500MB of RAM.

It looks great for a PS3/360 title, but for a Switch game its nothing special. Straight ports from old hardware don't make good use of Switch's capabilities.

Aside from botw which is cell shaded and ran on the  much weaker  wiiu.  what other open world  games compete?

BOTW is more demanding than Black Flag, we can measure this by how they perform; Black Flag on Switch is a dynamic 1080p while BOTW is a dynamic 900p because its heavier on the hardware.
