Good games for discovery/exploration

Yeah, I've played Morrowind too. I loved it, actually. Might get it again someday.

Get a Wii, get Endless Ocean. The whole entire point of the game is to explore.

There's always mumorpuguhs

Mumorpuguhs are fun, but once you have to grind for a week just to gain one level, it stops being fun. Sure you can explore, but everywhere you go, the monsters are too strong and you end up getting raped in a second, while the monsters in the area before were easily killed.

Try Morrowind again. The world is more unique-looking, and it feels much less empty. Also, you have an awesome game afterwards. Or an MMO.

The Myst series or Morrowind (with mods in order to make it beautiful) are what you desire.
