I just read the entire thread and I agree with Mercen-X. It'd like to see a pre-/post-series storyline. We'd learn more about RWBY-verse that way and it would avoid becoming bad like most of the movie games out there. I also highly oppose the usage of OC (self-created) characters for this game, seeing that we're mostly talking about an RPG game. Furthermore, I'd be interested in seeing weapons customization (like Dead Space's Bench) as custom weapons seem to be a big part of RWBY, and thus is also a rather defining aspect of the series. In regards to which dev should make this game, I'd say CD Projekt RED would be a good choice. They've made some amazing open-world RPGs that also have a strong story aspect with some very unique gameplay features (namely the combat mechanic from the first Witcher game). Another contender would be the devs of God of War (forgot their name), but this is primarily due to their great combat and overall gameplay. Bethesda in my opinion isn't too great at making amazing story-driven games and they're games are rather buggy (though some of this could be attributed to their large world sizes). Valve is a great dev but I just think they don't have the experience of making third-person open-world RPGs. Bioware isn't too shabby either, but they're controlled by EA and they focus primarily on OCs and decision-making by the player (which I don't think would suit the style of RWBY). Telltale would be great at telling the story, but I feel that we'd feel too detached from the game (RWBY does have a lot of combat, after all). (Activision) Blizzard would be decent I guess, but they focus too much on replayability and use a very traditional RPG style, which I don't think would suit this game. Ubisoft would probably have some pretty good combat and sandbox, but they feature more of a large variety of rather complex mechanics, which I don't think a RWBY game would need. And Crytek would just the game look really pretty. :P
