I had a funny idea, this topic is purely for fun. I have no intention of ever following through with this idea.

Basically everything about the game would dynamic and created as the player needed it. This is done a lot of random maps. As the player moves through the map, more is created. Basically I realized it's possible to create a game with a random map, random npc's with random names, random items and random quests etc etc.

I think it would be very funny. Would you play it? Why/Why Not?
I'd try it, but wouldn't play for long. It would feel like I'm not getting anywhere. Would be similar to rip Naruto games, you can be level 235235 but someone will be level 24634654734
See this for a bit of an opinion on it, too =P
Pretty much every MMORPG is an endless RPG, as those games are always being updated with new features.
This is an old idea, but a good one that deserves revisiting. See things like Dwarf Fortress or Elite

No. You can randomize quests and all of that, but I would find the game uninteresting overall. RPGs are my favorite genre of game, and the specific factor that they all share is an overarching plot and, hence, an ending.

Good luck randomizing an endless and interesting storyline akin to Final Fantasy, Star Ocean, etc.
