Sure, there are still scripted stories/quests and what not. But the background characters can become much more interesting if they're all LLMs that are just given a prompt like "you live in this cabin and are a subsistence farmer who has a dark secret" or something instead of just standing around looping a few lines. Open world games don't feel organic at all imo because these characters who should be adding flavor and making the game dynamic are just completely static.
