I also find the same with generated content in other video games. At its best it's passable and that's about it.

Minecraft would like to have a word with you...

Minecraft isn't generating new animals or narrative. Landscape generation is relatively straightforward from an algorithm / computation perspective. If it started generating its own models or characters or character dialogue I suspect it would very quickly fall into the territory of what I'm talking about.

There's just a feeling of emptiness to me that's pervasive in games with main parts of narrative or gameplay that are randomly generated.
