The OGL can't be destroyed anymore though, it is in the Creative Commons. And I know Jacobs is hurt since, yeah, they were planning on doing something with the drow but I still stand by my choice to leave and go to other systems. My group is wanting me to give a few OSR games that have drow in...

Drow are being retconned out of the setting, and when asked about how it would affect drow who have appeared in game before (such as in Second Darkness) Jacobs said it would either be "never happened, was all made up" or "it was actually serpentfolk who were just DISGUISED as drow" which doesn't...

It is a matter of principle to me. Doesn't help that my mere mentioning that I like drow on other websites/forums in recent days led to getting my personal character impugned. No, after this news I've found all enthusiasm for not only the current edition but also even the previous one wilt away...

Removal of the drow has 100% killed all enthusiasm I had for not only the Remaster but Pathfinder as a whole and I am, after a decade, going to leave both 1e and 2e Pathfinder. It has been a ride but to cut one of my absolutely favorite aspects of the setting is just way too much for me. Best of...

I mean, I'm certainly no fan of 5e or any of the UA I've read for the upcoming revision, but overwhelmingly is WotC being just a terrible company overall that people are attacking.

Hope this helps shake up the fantasy RPG market more.

Certainly interesting! I'll have to look into getting this soonish!

Love this book, not just for all the cool ships but also all of the cool Mission Briefs in it.

I think the only major fix needed would be, like, just do what modern 4e players do - give a free expertise feat at level 1 (or adjust the math for monster defenses down by one on average, keeping their best defense as is maybe?) and make sure every race has the standard +2 to one set ability...

I would just want more of everything.

As I told some people on Discord "We have won the OGL battle. Now the SRD Wars begin." Remember, they said they want to release older SRDs to Creative Commons. May we continue our fight until as much of all of D&D's decades of rules are in the CC! 3e and 4e and maybe others!

Now I may be a simple small town lawyer, but I am also an orc and that means when I rest my Case, I do it in a brain case. By the way, have you met my battleaxe I named Case?

Me and my core gaming group will be chatting over the coming weeks on making our own system to play games with and we fully intend on forming a company and publishing under the ORC.

If you made anything before with the OGL 1.0/1.0(a) WotC won't come after you or force you to change the licensing on that product. But the second the OGL 2.0 drops, anything you make AFTER the drop must use the 2.0 or they will go after you (supposedly). Again, you will be allowed to keep...

All PREVIOUS content will be protected by the OGL 1.0/1.0(a) but once they roll out the new OGL 2.0 they are going to try and deauthorize the use of the 1.0/1.0(a) to prevent people from using it for all future products meaning creators will be banned from it's use once the new OGL 2.0 drops...

Oh sweet lord this is just getting more and more juicy.

I'm laughing and crying having read their "response" since it does nothing! They can claim to be trying to walk back stuff but I see nothing in there about protecting for all time the OGL 1.0 or 1.0a NOR are they saying they will never alter the license to reinstate the stuff they are claiming...

Welp, now I am sure we won't learn anything more until tomorrow and it will probably be "we hear you, but we're going forward on this."

All of this is just mind boggling. If it isn't a full-throated denouncement of the OGL 1.1 and vocal (and preferably written) agreement that under no circumstance would the OGL 1.0 or OGL 1.0a be unauthorized, then WotC has lost business with not just me but also my group.

Did yesterday!
