    Manipulative language and banishing criticism to the gulag isn't 5D chess. It's Standard Corporate Abuse Tactics

    WotC: We Are Not Making AI Dungeon Masters

    Ah. Okay, Owlbears and gelatinous cubes are marketable, got it. If they're trying to kill the SRD just to get their hands back on those monsters, that's all kinds of horse puckey.

    WotC: We Are Not Making AI Dungeon Masters

    They already have that, though. They have the Product Identity. Do owlbears not appear on their PI list? I know Gelatinous Cubes don't, but no one was beating down the door to make a Gelatinous Cube Jello™️ Mold or whatever. None of their competitors are really in the toy business like Hasbro...

    I'd LOVE an owlbear plushie. They don't need to kill the OGL to release those, though.

    If they're trying to clear the air, it's still pretty stinky.

    Wow, Jeremy Crawford is posting about the survey thing. Yet he's been silent on the OGL for weeks.

    news scoop: insider account of how the statement was drafted, and the fear-based culture in Wizards offices

    It's only bad design if it's intended to be a vital clue. If it's missable Easter Egg content, it adds value to those who take the obscure language!

    news scoop: insider account of how the statement was drafted, and the fear-based culture in Wizards offices

    That seems to square with DnD Short's source info: So the feedback is seen, but only the bubbles. The commentary is still not being taken into account. I'm not entirely sure how you'd fix that with the volume of info coming in, though.

    news scoop: insider account of how the statement was drafted, and the fear-based culture in Wizards offices

    long story short: He's getting conflicting information from sources he trusts, and is trying to verify.

    Hello, I am lawyer with a PSA: almost everyone is wrong about the OGL and SRD. Clearing up confusion.

    They very carefully avoided much information, but they talked about works used in the OGL 1.0a in the past tense, which is telling.

    D&D 5E (2024) RPG Evolution: The Art of the Apology

    I mean, you can laugh, but there were plenty of content creators who thought they were influencing the direction of 5.5e by providing thoughtful feedback. They really did think they were being listened to. This is a painful revelation for some of them. They've been used as basically free...

    LOL Ah. Okay. That makes sense, then. It sounded like you were talking about Democratic Socialism because you were. :LOL:

    You know, you can say Socialism. Because that's what socialists like me seek. Democatic control of financial capital and the means of production.
