What kinds of games might you recommend with deep worldbuilding and interaction that aren’t RPGs?

I like worldbuilding and stories, and I like when they’re mixed with the interactivity of games, so RPGs seem like they should be a natural fit. Problem is, I dislike the stat-heavy, grindy progression of many RPGs.

I enjoy point & click adventures and visual novels but they’re often more limited in their interactions. What kinds of game might I be missing combining the two?

    What about Skyrim? There are limited stats and a giant world to explore that you can approach from any number of ways, stats may go up but you aren’t asked to allocate any of them (except the skill tree)
