This isn't some trick question. If God revealed Himself to the entire world, I'm not sure how He would do this, and it doesn't really matter, let's just say He has unquestionably done so. Would you accept that He exists? Would you seek to learn more of Him or to follow Him?

The conditions of the hypothetical limit the answer to yes.
In your scenario, god has "unquestionably" established its creds as god. Then you ask if we would question this. How? It was unquestionable.
that is one big if statement. but if people can deny all the other obvious stuff going on around them, denying the existence of God is not too difficult.

It is implausible when his existence is "unquestionable" in the hypothetical scenario. It reality, it's easy to deny something that's never been seen nor proven.
He already revealed himself when He took down Egypt and rescued the Israelites.
He already revealed Himself when He raised His Son from the dead.
Just because we on this board weren't around during those times does not mean He did not.
Suppose He openly revealed Himself tomorrow and all the newspapers wrote about it. Then 2000 years later all the naysayers would once again say it was all bogus.
Yes, I would believe.
I identify most closely with agnostic atheism, but I'm not really 'rooting' for either side. I'm simply following where the evidence leads me. So yes, I would accept incontrovertible evidence and I believe most rational and reasonable people would do the same.
My question to the OP: What would it take for you to not believe?

Some would, yes. There are some that would argue that water isn't wet, I reckon.
