Кагбе фоллачи от беседки и Свитки не песочница, а только "с элементами песочницы", так же как не всё со статами и прокачкой - РПГ. А уж в экшон-РПГ от РПГ максимум отдельные элементы.
Плюс у беседки в каждой игре своя беда, из-за которой убивается интерес. Даже святой Морровинд не без проблем. Он слишком статичный. Один раз ты ловишь кайф от каждой найденной вещи, но во второй раз можешь просто пойти и взять их. Броню, оружие, шмотки - что угодно.

>У меня порой ощущение что беседка платит огромные бабки что бы всех энтузиастов с аналогичными разработками подкупать и они не допиливали свои проекты.

Такие игры очень сложно делать.
В отдельности каждая необходимая механика уже где-то была, но собрать их вместе пока никто не может.
В майнкрафте и Даггерфоле создавали огромный открытый мир.
В Mount and blade была (практически) бесконечная война фракций на глобальной карте.
В Симсах запилили механику социальных взаимодействий и характеристики персонажей.
Беседка до какой-то степени смогла в радиант-квесты и прокачку.
Diablo и её клоны - в систему генерируемого рандомом шмота.
И так далее.

Ну и экономический момент.
Кассу собирают игры, построенные по принципу семейного кино. Берём самую широкую ЦА, делим её на сегменты по предпочтениям и под каждый сегмент запиливаем набор триггеров, пропорциональный его размеру.
По итогу кому-то зайдёт обустройство базы, кому-то шутан, кому-то романы со спутниками, а кому-то зачистка пещерок и сюжет. Отсылки к американской школьной программе и массовой культуре добавляем по вкусу. И к предыдущим играм серии, но небольшие - олдфаги не нужны, нужно привлекать массы. (Триггеры пропорциональны размеру группы, помним?)
И получаем в итоге Fallout 4 от беседки, где они с сюжетом и геймплеем в принципе не напрягались. Разве что дизайнеры поработали, тут не отнять.

Вот и получается, что в "игру мечты" пытаются только фанатики и инди-разработчики, но они обычно не тянут.
Есть ещё эпический долгострой Kenshi, таки вышедший в релиз и даже пришедший к успеху, но таких проектов единицы.
