As long as I've understood the option as you've written it, your Sims 3&4 combo seems to be what I want. (Others seem to be interpreting it differently sometimes -- thus why I state it this way.) What I'm looking for is that each "world," like Oasis Springs or Willow Creek should be entirely open-world. You'd have a loading screen when you travel between worlds, but that's it. I mean, ideally, I'd love to have a completely open world where we can connect everything and add on new areas that are all accessible all the time. But I'm willing to settle for each world being loaded individually, as long as we can move between them freely.
To me the importance of an open world is being able to control multiple Sims in different places. This is something I could do in TS3, but cannot in TS4. I know everyone has their own wishes/desires, but this is pretty much my biggest. I want to be able to control my whole household wherever they are. If I have one Sim in an active career, I want to be able to follow them to work, but still keep my other Sims active -- have them do housework, go out to a venue, whatever. This was only possible with the open world in TS3 that let you switch back and forth from one location to another. Worlds would generally need to be a bit larger than in TS4 so that you could have pretty much everything you want in a given world though.
