Even CDPR hasn't been able to best the greatest open world, action RPG ever created, The Witcher 3.
Every open world RPG since the Witcher is clearly inspired by it.
Breath of the Wild - An average game, at best. If it weren't for the Zelda nostalgia, it would be in the 7/10 range with its empty, boring world.
Assassins Creed Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla - All fun games with good stories, but nothing that matches the storytelling depth of the Witcher 3 and it's expansions.
Horizon Zero Dawn - A decent game, but honestly a bit boring with an uninteresting story.
Red Dead 2 - A boring horse riding simulator. Pass. No contest.
Greedfall - LOL.
Cyberpunk 2077 - Great concept with a good story, but horrible execution. A true screw up.
What else is out there?
It's been almost 7 years and nothing has managed to best the Witcher 3. Every single game in its genre has modeled itself after TW3. I have a feeling the Witcher 3 is going to go down as game of the decade.
