As I said, open world is not a genre, and TotK/ER are not even in the same genre. Just like you can't compare BotW and Morrowind arbitrarily, even though are both open world games.

Yes, you can.

You're overthinking this; games don't have to be highly similar to compare them, every year we do a GOTY award where games from totally different genres are compared to see which is best.

No, you can't really - that's why I said OP needs to be more specific about particular aspects (exploration, risk/reward, world design, combat, narrative progression, character progression and other that they share, along with many they that they don't).

But I don't think you and I will agree on this one, so let's move on.
