WBased on personal enjoyment alone that is, cause given how very diferent these 2 products are, as some people in this thread have mentioned, the comparison is odd. 

The reason for the comparison is this: Two games which are generally considered the pinnacle of the open world genre, but take completely different approaches. It’s not really an odd comparison IMO (though I might be biased in saying that lol). It’s like comparing DKBananza to Astro Bot.

There is no open world genre.

Elite is open world game.
Ultima is open world game.
Sid Meier Pirates! is open world game.
Morrowind is open world game.
GTA is open world game.
FarCry II is open world game.
Minecraft is open world game.

...to name just a few known to wider audience.

And yes, TotK and ER are open world games.

All very different experiences.
