Open World Games: yay or nay?

From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

Nay, but I have a few exceptions:
FFXV really benefits from the open world and never felt copy pasted like most others.
Outer Wilds (if that counts) could obviously only exist with a continuous map.
While I dislike most open world games, I don't think it's an issue with the open world itself, but with how shallow the games end up being as they all copy the same formula and they all seem afraid to hide "content" from you, so exploration gets trivialized.
