I have no idea how much work they did, it’s not like the books / pdfs are available right after the KS, so I would expect much of the work is still ahead of them and the three years were mostly spent on the content of other KS. Yes, GG will have to eat some costs if they cancel the KS, that is...

My understanding is that Goodman always intended to refund the backers but forgot to mention that in the initial announcement. JG is not in the loop here, so they cannot change their mind, the money goes to a third party arbiter

it’s not meant as a comparison but as an example to illustrate the point

I believe that this is how most people see it, acting in good faith / to preserve CSIO but with that priority being absolutely misguided. The problem is what they have to do for this, goodwill only gets you so far. You can have been a good neighbor for years, if one day you suddenly beat me up...

an inaccurate summary by a latecomer, quelle surprise

there are plenty of other classes and subclasses out there, that WotC keeps on upping the power level is definitely on them, whether from lack of imagination or some other reason

I wouldn’t read anything into it other than D&D being the dominant game

you are not the first one…

are you under the impression that this had gone unnoticed until you posted?

we do not know that they did… from what we know they could walk away, they simply aren’t

eh, if the only way they can think of creating sufficient interest is by upping the power level, they failed before they even started

yeah, and shortly before they announced the CSIO KS the status was still 'we will do nothing with JG', so I am not all that convinced this time around

so no one then, because none of these meet the criteria of believing JG over GG… not believing Goodman is not the same as believing Bledsaw nope, but for having doubts about Goodman’s statements

if he is not eager, why is he doing it in the first place? At this point GG should call the whole thing off, nothing else can still salvage this

well, if you change your mind about working with Nazis, then don’t be surprised if I hold that against you…

maybe, but apparently there is no obligation attached “to make a long story short, Goodman Games has or had rights to quite a few Judges Guild titles, and we have no plans to release any except CSIO.”

if you are looking for something OSR, it probably would be Chromatic Dungeons https://izegrimcreations.com/shop/ols/products/chromatic-dungeons-core-rules https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/352086/chromatic-dungeons-rpg

but they are about to kickstart one, how is that not a contradiction?

in 2020 they said they would not do any JG projects and yet here we are, so that track record does not hold up

makes for a better explanation than 'they really wanted to publish this' ?
