The Witcher games aren't necessarily open world but they are largely player-directed and do provide a large degree of freedom within the constructs of an established story. They also have much better gameplay mechanics and graphics than any of the contemporary fantasy WRPGs (Elder Scrolls Oblivion and Skyrim, Fable II and II, Dragon Age I and II, Kingdoms of Amalur).
Only one I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is the Fallout series, and GTA San Andreas even tho they are more shooters than RPGs, they still have a large world to freely explore.
kingdoms of amalaur is basicly a baby of fable and oblivion. If you got tired of bethesda, its a fine alternative. If you idea is having someting similar that aint elder of scrolls, if you want something radically diffirent....
You'll have to try it to see if it meets your tastes. Combat, to me, seemed fairly simplistic and the artstyle was very similar to WoW (in a good way). The world was huge, however, and you could definitely get lost in the hours of content it provides.

I love it, but the demo freezes at some points and I get a black screen with Post Processing turned on.
Fable II & III, dragon's dogma, dark souls, kingdoms of amulur, nier, fallout 3, fallout new vegas, two worlds II, borderlands 1&2, Rage, Far cry 3, mass effect 1, gta san andreas.
I play dayz now, it's open world and a bit of rpg but it's multiplayer.
