People say all you need to do is reword things because it is TRUE with game rules according to every court precedent regarding copyright and game rules. Original material about a setting or a novel etc., not so much.

Yeah, too late. already moved on to PF2E.

Although Pathfinder 2E is released under OGL 1.0a, they basically removed nearly everything they had originally pulled from SRD 3.5, so it's really a task of going through it with a fine tooth comb to make sure no more WotCisms remain, editing anything that may need to be edited, and releasing...

I imagine a slightly revised Pathfinder 2 and Kobold's Black Flag will both have SRDs released under ORC.

I think that included additional production, not on hand inventory, which is why they still told people ordering of other venues to purchase the items. I am still waiting on my order.

So this restores a bit of faith in WotC. I can go see the movie and resubscribe to Paramount+ now. I can resume my purchases of OOP TSR products on DriveThruRPG. I think I'll still be moving to PF2E though.

Linda can make their product they mentioned. Those are their pronouns, just an FYI.

Put me into the stance he took group, I agree completely with that red line. There cen be no compromise on OGL 1.0a as the consequences of not holding fast are far larger than TTRPGs and could affect trillions of dollars worth of global commerce.

I know at least ten attorneys who disagree with your assessment completely. That does not even take into account the attorneys who wrote OGL 1.0a and the team that put everything together at WotC.

I had considered that and it does fit the overall undead theme, but thought I would stick to strictly vampires. The Dark Shadows writers likely compiled the two classic horror movies into a single workable trope line.

I think the trope goes back to the Dark Shadows television series where Victoria Winters was believed to be the reincarnation of Josette by Barnabas Collins. At least, that's the earliest expression of a vampire finding the reincarnation of a dead love that I can recall seeing.

I think Paizo would stand a better chance in front of a jury than a judge in this case. Easier to get the point of "perpetual" across to a jury and the fact that it has stood for 20+ years to a jury than a judge. WotC, of course, would want no jury.

Not to mention there are so many more original concepts that could be turned into movies, I see no future for Ravenloft on the Silver Screen

Could you depend on it even actually being implemented in the first place? After all, it is stated in a statement that is not legally binding and WotC have already proved they are more than willing to renege on anything they have ever said like that the OGL would always be there if they do a new...

Take it for what you will, but Strahd would be an awful choice for a movie. Besides being a direct ripoff of Dracula, the number of tropes would just never be accepted by modern audiences.
