I think forbidden west is an extremely bad game from a pure game design perspective

* extremely cluttered UI
* huge world map, but it's devoid of natural landmarks
* none of the skill tree is useful
* enemies are mostly damage sponges
* infinite trinkets/junk to pick up and none of it is interesting
visually it's gorgeous but it's weirdly not fun. story wise it's passable and has a mini-mass effect 2 gameplay loop but it's not worth it.

Sounds like the first game. I really really wanted to like it given I liked the story and protagonist and combat

But man the overworld was terrible.

Elden ring had its own issues in terms of overworld but man was it fun to just gallop around random places and watch the scenery change
