Biggest issue for WotC and pricing is that they print in the USA mostly. That could be changing, who knows.

Well, I am more than willing to believe the possibility that this will be something like Exploring Eberron, or maybe even Explorers Guide to Widlemoint, that is mostly the work of outside freelancers. But "no internal WotC involvement" is just a weird way to phrase things.

Yeah, I mean, I would belive it is possible that a lot of the heavy lifting is coming from Gygax and some other external Greyhawk creatives, but the weird hostile post is weird and hostile. Haven't had a chance to watch the solo Gygax video or the full panel yet, probably won't get a chance to...

It does seem plausible that this longtime Greyhawk DM might be involved in contributing, but I'm going to take tje random Tweet with a grain of salt until we see more about the product or products.

OK, seems to be a Twitch streamer who has a Greyhawk campaign that has been going since before I was born...interesting. Unclear what he means by "internal WotC" though. Does a part time remote work contracter like Shawn Merwin count as "internal" , if he were involved?

Yeah, that is not financially likely.

I have no idea, it's some anonymous account on social media with poor grammar?

What is his real name?

Exact quote, and where?

Yes, they are?

If they put out small soft over modules, wouldn't bet on less than $30 a pop. Might be lucky to get that these days.

In what format, available for sale or as store packets, if for sale how much and what's the page count? I predict that no matter the answer to these questions, there will be serious bellyaching about how much better things were when people were 15 and had an allowance and no bills.

Probably not possible.

But there is plenty in the text to suggest he possibility.

So, the threat to small publishers isn't AI being banned, it is the temptation to use AI to fill their product with slop. The larger companies have figured out they cna use "Made by Humans" as a marketing distinction, but so have the wiser small creators. Using slop does not level the playing field.
