The game needs to open up

No, you have to ask yourself the following : Why Old School Sandbox MMO type have died?

I'm an old MMO player, i started on EverQuest in 1999.... And seriously, people who never experienced those type of content, should never ask for it.
The reason? Simple : The Players....

Sandbox MMO tend to generate a ton of griefer (Stealth Boss Claim, Mob Train to whipe a party and take their XP spot, PK that would make look like serial killer as casual etc... etc...)

Seriously, what you asking is either a new FF MMO or to kill FFXIV.... because the majority of modern MMO players only know Theme Park MMO and, most of them, wouldn't be able to adapt to the way more harsher environment that Sandbox MMO deliver..

It sounds to me like, "I had a bad experience in the past, so let’s not try again." Devs shouldn’t stop trying new things just because there might be some discrepancies.
This game has never catered to just one specific audience, and it doesn’t now.

CBU3 doesn’t need to reinvent the wheel, but it should be possible to create new types of content that also appeal to casual players.

It sounds to me like, "I had a bad experience in the past, so let’s not try again."

Oh no, i fully enjoyed it! In fact, at the base, i'm a Full PvP MMO player.

It's just that i really think that most Modern MMO Player, who only ever played Theme Park MMO, would have a really hard time to adapt to the far more harsher environment that a SandBox MMO deliver and, it will lead to the inevitable whine and ask for more easiest content.

So, i saiy it again : If you never experienced SandBox/Old School MMO content, you shoudn't ask fo it.... After all, players always want what they don't want.
