I know exactly what you’re talking about with the burnout and decision anxiety for new games that take hours to complete a tutorial or have paragraphs of menu text. It’s not exactly the open world you’re talking about, but I found Hard Space Ship Breaker to be a great alternative to that. It’s got excellent lore and storytelling while still being a very simple game. Think power wash simulator, but breaking apart spaceships in a space trucker stop. It’s simple, and each “day” is a hard 15 minutes, so you’ll always have a stopping point in a reasonable time.
