The physics part isn't even really that important, I think. It helps pile things up, but it's not tantamount to what makes a Bethesda game.
It's from a culmination of decisions that lead to it. To letting you pick up all these miscellaneous items. To saving where these items are stored. To letting you go anywhere you want to. And on top of all that, having a fully functional game working along side all that.
Nobody else makes them because indies don't have the resources to make them like Bethesda and AAA devs don't have the luxury to invest in such a niche experimental and expensive genre.
