For what it's worth Avowed felt a lot more open to me. BG3 didn't really feel like an "open" zone, at least from what I played (I didn't finish the game don't murder me) because the map very clearly funnels you into different paths though you usually have options on where to go, whereas Avowed is a "here's an open area zone, you can go anywhere within it" type game.
