I bow to no one in my unadorned love for W3, but I don't think in any way you can compare the world simulation to the latter stuff by Rockstar. In W3, the world is a beautiful, mostly static backdrop - the core of the game is the quests.

GTAV and RDR2, though, are sufficiently simulation-ist that a huge part of their appeal is going off piste and inhabiting their respective worlds.

Cyberpunk previewed like it would be a Rockstar-quality simulation, but in reality it's another W3 world - a beautiful backdrop to the quests. Fine for me, but it's really knocked expectations out of whack for many, understandably so.
