What about modern indie titles? They often forgo the bloat and focus on core gameplay.
If you like BotW you might like A Short Hike, if you like Diablo3 then Hammerwatch (released a year later) could be fun too, etc.

I haven't played a single AAA game since then. Only indies :)
Indies are on a roll, there's one for any genre and gameplay style.
I don't need a lot of graphical grunt to play Factorio, Rimworld, Vintage Story, Battletech, or the like. A lot of AAA games just don't appeal to me any more.
