With the way generative AI is progressing, I wouldn't say it's impossible.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Generative AI and multi-model AI may very likely change dialogue trees with characters, giving infinite possibilities for interaction.

And if they can implement AI into building quest lines, there's no end to the amount of things to do.

Even if the dialog was infinitely customizable via an LLM, that doesn't come close to what can happen in a real TTRPG.

You would need a system that can generate all new 3d assets, put them together in the engine, script up behaviors, and do all of this on the fly. And what happens when someone tries to do something that cannot be done in the game engine?

None of this will be possible in the next 10 years, or probably much, much longer.

If you had infinite possibilities for interactions, then you would have an infinite number of outcomes that would require the game to do something it doesn't have code or assets for. You would have to funnel the infinite possibilities of the conversation back down to the handful of options that feed into the planned game, which would have infinite ways of being awkward and making no sense.

This might be possible for an AI driven text adventure game I guess, but I can't imagine it would be good... Or bad, or interesting, or anything at all because the artistry would be non existent
