    WotC Hasbro's CEO Reports OGL-Related D&D Beyond Cancellations Had Minimal Impact

    WotC is not a charity either. Whether someone else can make a living on their product is of no concern to them. When they do deem it beneficial they enable it, when they do not. The OGL/SRD was not gift to the world but a calculated move to dominate the market and kill all other systems. At...

    WotC Hasbro's CEO Reports OGL-Related D&D Beyond Cancellations Had Minimal Impact

    How do you define necessary? They clearly assumed, by their internal projections, that this would increase their profits and thus it was necessary for WotC. And they absolutely did mean it. It was just the backslash being so much greater than their internal projections expected and thus they...

    I'm beginning to dislike Netflix (re: Archive 81, 1899, Warrior Nun etc cancellations)

    You need to ask him: If he won't, then who watches the Watchmen? Well, history proves them right. Every show quickly plummeted once they cancelled them. There you see how accurate their foresight is ;)

    I'm beginning to dislike Netflix (re: Archive 81, 1899, Warrior Nun etc cancellations)

    From this link: "Something has broken with this model. It’s now created a system where creators should be afraid to make a series that dares to end on a cliffhanger or save anything for future seasons, lest their story forever be left unfinished." I am not actually sure that I dislike this...

    WotC WotC Cancels 5 Video Games

    I have agree with those that disagree with you here. It'd still be an AAA game, just a failed AAA game. As opposed to a successful non-AAA game that could very well outsell even some just moderately successful AAA games. A flopped Hollywood movie is still a Hollywood movie, even if outsold by...

    What's All This About The OGL Going Away?

    Looked very much like Fantasy Grounds and was even integrated with the web based character builder. I played a couple of LFR games on it. Too bad none of the screenshots I made have survived to this day

    Dragonlance WotC Officially Confirms Takhisis and Tiamat Are The Same

    No multispheric deity lost her power during the ToT. They were still chilling safe and sound in their outer planar homes, but if they wanted to continue to act on Toril they each had to manifest a single avatar of limited power and if that avatar was slain, the deity would be banned from Toril...

    NEWS; Gunning down the Snyderverse UPDATE Cavill gets the Kryptonite handshake!

    So they're still trying to figure how to cut out the entirety of Ezra Miller while still keeping it a Flash movie? :) That does them no good if all those praising voters do not actually go and watch the movies they are praising. Either they're not doing that or they are indeed a tiny minority...

    D&D 5E Could D&D Die Again?

    D&D, like all other franchises before, will go through it's up and downs. Currently it's ridding a wave of all-time high, eventually it will fall back down into absolute niche. Like Power Ranger, Ghostbusters, Masters of the Universe, TMNT, ........ It will never completely die, but very well...

    World Cup Thread?

    Well, I am only a casual fan but their last few matches didn't leave me with much hope. After they barely ended up as 3rd (out of 4) in their nations league group, I wrote a 5th world cup off
