You are a crew member on a space ship and you only have that one crew member's job to do. The ship is persistent in a multiplayer environment and all the players on the ship have different jobs. You decide who goes on away missions and what equipment to bring and you go run dungeons together as a team or fly around and have adventures in space and battle the crews of other ships which are also manned by other players.

The larger the group you register, the bigger the ship you get. The more missions your crew completes, the more money and equipment you get and each player gets a share. The captain of the ship gets to write your performance reviews and those follow your account from ship to ship.

A game where you play as a lobster and go on an epic undersea quest to save your lost love. The game spans a timeline of one hundred years (lobsters mate for life and are immortal).

***
A game where you shoot clowns for points.

A realistic hot air balloon sim.

***
A secret agent MMO where every player is a secret agent or a femme fatale. Every player gets a summonable spy car they can use on the streets of the city (which is the hub area) and several gadgets. Quests involve stealing plans, blowing up superweapons and sabotage. There are two factions: Allies and Communists. Each faction has a number of key targets which the other faction perpetually attempts to capture or destroy.

A game where you infiltrate ethnic neighborhoods and when you're dead center you get to yell an appropriate racial slur and escape the wrath of all the villagers within earshot.

Another game where you race but the cars only drive forwards and in reverse/left

it should be like morrowind but combined with the romance of harvest moon 64 and the dancing mini game in sid meyer's: pirates! but also it will have giant rts battles like total war and horror survival segments like the first parts of the hit video game spore and the frantic platforming and exploration of spider solitaire.

They should make a game where you're part of an alien/monster civilization that lives near the center of the earth to keep warm and the gameplay is tunneling up to the surface to snatch humans and do experiments on them / eat them.

They should make a game where you and your friends can build up each other's real-world houses like you're playing The Sims, but then shortly after you start playing a huge worldwide meteor shower starts to destroy civilization, and to escape it you have to build each other's houses up really tall to reach a portal and use the game's arcane crafting system to forge symbolism-heavy items of power that transport your houses into another dimension where you have to complete an epic quest individually tuned by some unknown intelligence to best facilitate your personal growth, and eventually as a group you manage to bring about the creation of an entirely new universe that you rule over as god-like mythic figures

except if you're not careful you could accidentally cause a glitch in the game's logic to create an unkillable boss which threatens to make not only your instance of the game unwinnable but several other ones as well, and in order to have any hope of creating the new universe you have to reboot your own universe but slightly different so that everyone's parents are playing the game together instead and ok confession time this entire post is just Homestuck

They should make a game where you play as a programmer for an Internet start up company. Everyone talks about how the business will take off and everyone will be rich and after a week of game play the company collapses and you lose everything.

A multiplayer game where each player controls a limb of the body.

Like qwop but maybe with like "Nintendo power glove" style implements.

It would be very fun to watch.
