If you want a Big Huge game with a great deal of freedom and a more positive message, Oblivion may fit the bill. It WILL take up too much of your life, so I can't recommend it if you want to be productive. I got into Oblivion in between big projects, and I wanted the closest thing to a vacation I'm likey to get: a time where I can drink and play video games for a couple weeks guilt free. But I've enjoyed it a great deal, to the point where I put off buying GTA4 because of it. But it's much more open to making your own narrative. if you want to make a girl with blue skin and orange hair and too much eyeshadow that only uses magic and daggers who steals from the rich and gives to the poor, you can do it. If you want to be a Good Person, the game lets you, more or less.
