  If not for graphics, Asheron's Call would be what you're looking for.

  Goodluck with that for sp I recommend dragon age orgins. But there is no mmo like that really I would say lotro but doesnt have open world like you want but has more meaningful quests but I found gameplay boring and dull.

   

  You could always look into darkfall but there are no quests from what I hear and extremly pvp focused but there is pve and the mobs have incredible ai from what I hear. Just keep in mind vets might have power over you just like in eve because they been leveling up there skills longer.

  Perhas take a chance at 2Worlds2, while I havn't picked it up yet, I did enjoy 2Worlds1 very much, apart from the voiceacting in part 1, but have a feeling the things they knew had to change did change in part 2. Oh and it's a single/multiplayer player RPG.

  Some of it's feature's

  • 
    A flexible combat system with variable attack moves, parrying and special tricks
  • 
    State-of-the-art technology, thanks to a powerful GRACE^TM engine and special tools 
  • 
    Lots of mini-games for breaking up gameplay
  • 
    Intuitive user interface for the DEMONS^TM Magic system and the PAPAK^TM Alchemy system
  • 
    Mercenaries and magically-created beings accompany the player
  • 
    Complex object management with movable and usable items 
  • 
    Special CRAFT^TM tool enables the individual configuration of armor and weapons
  • 
    Many Boss opponents, including special combat strategies and unique rewards
  • 
    Flexible MoSens system guarantees realistic everyday and combat movements
  • 
    Various ways of moving, like walking, running, sprinting, riding, swimming, sailing and teleporting 
  • 
    Captivating background story with numerous cutscenes
  •

   2Worlds is probably the best suggestion you'll get for a sp/mp game.

   It feels kind of odd as a console game (it's also for pc), but pretty much inline with how most mmo combat feels though, and sort of has a Gothic 3 vibe with a little Elder Scrolls thrown into the mix.

   I'd definetly try out a demo first before you rush out to buy it though, it may only be about $20 across all platforms but for some that could seem like too much, since it could require someone with a true rpg addiction to overlook many of it's glaring issues.

   

   Wasn't aware 2Worlds2 was out though, but if it is it'd probably be a safe bet just to skip the first one altogether :P

  Seeing that you mentioned single player rpg's keep an eye out for Deus Ex Human Revolution
