    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    To release it as D&D 3.5 they would have to license it. If they pared it down to just the OGL content you could not use it to build every possible 3.5 Character because there are non OGL Character options. To make it so that it would serve both 3.5 and PF1 both Wizards and Paizo would have to...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    Highly unlikely that Wizards would license one version of D&D to Demiplane while the other is with Beyond.

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    Not sure how accurate it is that the contract with Disney doesn’t allow for electronic media in total, because there still exists the official FFG Star Wars dice app which covers the board games, X-Wing and the three core TTRPG games. Obviously a Demiplane product would require more than just...

    TSR Now it’s WotC’s Turn: WotC Moves Against TSR3

    Sigh harder WOTC hasn’t self published a novel in a few years. They license to TOR and Del Rey for their branded publication It actually does matter, because what matters is whether WOTC - the owner of the trademark - is willing to allow a brand confusion. They aren’t. And the Dragonlance...

    TSR Now it’s WotC’s Turn: WotC Moves Against TSR3

    The inconsistencies only exist if you ignore context and try to broadly apply a statement about one situation to all situations. Which is a bit disingenuous In response to the idea of licensing out the TSR logo to another company to create TTRPG content. Where indeed, as I’ve now explained...

    TSR Now it’s WotC’s Turn: WotC Moves Against TSR3

    Except, as I said, there is no issue of brand confusion between Dragonlance and Dragonlance. WOTC owns Dragonlance and is licensing the publication of Dragonlance. I even pointed out this distinction to you. TSR redoux using the logo or them licensing it to you to release alternate TTRPG...

    TSR Now it’s WotC’s Turn: WotC Moves Against TSR3

    Where is the post by the way, because it doesn't appear to be on Margaret's website, nor her twitter. Worse though, the cover doesn't appear to actually contain the "original Dragonlance logo" so much as the new "Classic" Dragonlance logo. I can clearly see the statement in the article, but...

    TSR Now it’s WotC’s Turn: WotC Moves Against TSR3

    I don't know what portion of my prior post you think this would invalidate but let's look. Wizards gave permission for the creator of Dragonlance to use the original Dragonlance logo on the latest Dragonlance book. There is no brand confusion in that, because Wizards isn't publishing their own...

    Online Digital Tools Disappearance Risk Discussion

    No grudge implied, I was just stating that multiple people had disagreed with the assessment being presented as objective fact.

    Online Digital Tools Disappearance Risk Discussion

    Just as you continually disagree with the valid point that such subscription services are entirely voluntarily and have not in any way replaced access to physical tools in a way that makes games unplayable. Other 4e players have told you in both threads that they disagree with this assessment...

    Online Digital Tools Disappearance Risk Discussion

    For less than the subscription price of DDI across the life of the game you could have purchased the official power card sets or for the low low price of whatever your local library charges you could have taken said books and photocopied the relevant powers necessary, printed them out and had...

    Online Digital Tools Disappearance Risk Discussion

    That system runs perfectly fine without the digital tools. We never once used them and sapped all the enjoyment out of 4e that we could.

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    It has nothing to do with disagreement. You brought up topic A (the idea that digital tools increase the risk of games becoming unplayable), I responded to topic A, you climbed up on a soapbox to discuss topic B (the removal of digital subscription tools that are by no means the only way to...

    I'd really rather not. You explained your position thoroughly while dismissing and ignoring mine.

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    In fairness, this was exactly the argument that I was making. That those who had already purchased the product would likely still be able to use the product but that no one else would be able to purchase it. Also, exactly the argument I was making.

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    No actually; Matt Colville said you can’t easily play 4e on Fantasy Grounds without having to do some customization to make it work. People play the game on Roll20, for which tools were never created in the first place. There is no absolute “can’t” in this conversation. You have an opinion...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    Completely agree that calling 4e a dead system is reductive. A lot was thrown at the wall to act as a proof that once the digital tools are gone the game is gone, I could have better countered the 4e statement by looking for those Roll20 numbers or referencing Matt Colville’s streaming 4e...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    It may, 5e was a rising tide that is still lifting boats. The total size of the player base has grown dramatically. The problem comes when you use that observation to argue that print books and accessories WILL (your word and emphasis) go away without actual evidence to back it up. The...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    You kind of are, but okay. Sure, you see that and see that it’s a problem that makes you leery of those services. It makes me leery of Games Workshop Yeah, a possibility and something that “WILL happen” are two separate things. You are at this point being a bit hyperbolic in your support of...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    Yes and that doesn’t in fact relate to my statement that I find it unlikely that Foundry would turn off access to content you paid for quite that easily. It’s not a subscription, you don’t repurchase the content each month. Stop conflating subscriptions and digital purchases Sure it’s a...
