Okay, another question for Mr. Valterra.
Ryan Dancey recently mentioned where he believes the OGL will go in the near future. What are you thoughts on his views and where do you see the OGL and the D20 movement going in the next few years?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Way, way, way big subject. I will likely write up an entire position statement like Ryan's. Way to big to cover here late at night.
I am looking forward to the position statement. I hope you will include some reflections on what the OGL and D20 movement has achieved since its inception. Any thoughts on the accomplishments at WotC during your tenure and what you wish the company might have done differently? (I know a lot of people here grumbled about errors in the first printing of Sword and Fist)
Obviously, prejudice against gaming still exists. Of course, I believe that knowledge and reasoned discussion are effective tools in fighting prejudice of many sorts. Do you think some of the leading game writers and publishers might want to work on a project to better educate people.
For those who might need a little help in defending the hobby, you might want to visit The Escapist, a roleplaying advocacy website.
seasong, I agree with your points on the press release. Active voice would have helped the press release. Your other points were also right on the mark. (I never spent much time considering Conan's prowess, except in overcoming obstacles. As for Arwen, when I first read the Lord of the Rings, I was impressed with the thought that someone would chose love over immortality and eternal youth. From what AV has said, it looks like love will also be explored in the BoEF. )
