is as open world like Bethesda games such as TES. Name 1 "GREAT" Fanasty WRPG that is completely open-world like TES games (not two worlds, that was not "GREAT", it svcked; sorry fans).
I am honestly surprised not a single gaming company has brought something to the plate to compete with TES. Sure there are many wrpgs that allow you to roam aroubd the city your in, but in order to travel somewhere else, you have to go to a travel menu. You can't just go there by walking without menu loading. That's not a true open-world.
I would like to see one of them while we wait for TESVI lol.

It's not out yet, but Kindoms of Amalur looks like it's going to be right up there with Beth's games in open world-ness and open ended gameplay. It's a little more high fantasy than Elder Scrolls though it seems. Comes out in February I think.

Fallouts 1, 2, and 3 (Don't believe that Fallout's a Fantasy RPG? Check out the effects of radiation again)

In b4 Mount&Blade?

Most are MMOs, because developers realized "Hey, there's enough room in this world for everyone!": World of Warcraft, Runescape, Everquest, etc.

Have you played even played Two Worlds (the first one) for more than half an hour? Despite the bad language localization that seems to lead to most of its bashing, the scope, scale, and sheer amount of stuff to do more than makes up for it... and it's gear system's both awesome and intuitive. Also: Horseback combat (Learn to play... it works very well once you get a rank or two in the "Horse Riding" skill.), pared-down level scaling, and Spears are in that game. On the other hand... it has the same problem of Morrowind in becoming godlike too early... but the begining of the game's a refreshing challenge (Making it sweet when you are level 30+ and can rule the world)

Fables 1 and 2... even though the second one had a horrible main story, required to access the actual game.

I have no need to bash any fantasy RPG out there for not being set in Tamriel... my game library's big enough for all of them. :celebration:

Why WRPGs? There are some great JRPGs that have sandbox worlds. Some of the older Final Fantasies and one of my favorites, Dragon Quest VIII, have sandbox worlds.
