    Where do we stand on Harry Potter?

    "Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." "The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of...

    The 1986 TV movie starred Fairuza Balk, Diana Rigg, Charlotte Rae & Tim Curry.

    Where do we stand on Harry Potter?

    As opposed to it being a rip off of the Unseen University of Terry Pratchett's Discworld which pre-dated it by over a decade? Thank you of reminding me of that, I recall the TV movie from the '80s. Is there really a still compelling reason for wanting to still reference this specific property...

    D&D General Are You Ready For A "New" D&D?

    To me that describes Adventures Dark and Deep. "Well, that's because Adventures Dark & Deep isn't quite a retro-clone. Almost, but not quite. Adventures Dark & Deep (abbreviated ADD) bills itself as being "based on Gary Gygax's plans for expanding the game." So it's claims to be a clone of...

    Ginny Di interviews WotC's Kyle Brink

    I wonder how hard Paramount leaned into Wizbro & told them to quit "screwing around" to keep them from potentially tanking the movie.

    1.1/Terms Signature Leak, it was a draft?

    Despite the fact that they are a 3PP, who may have potentially been a party to one of these meetings that involved these "drafts" with contracts attached, that recently had a very successful Kickstarter & would have been severely impacted by OGL 1.1.?

    1.1/Terms Signature Leak, it was a draft?

    Have you contacted The Griffon's Saddlebag in an attempt to acquire firsthand knowledge of such?

    1.1/Terms Signature Leak, it was a draft?

    To me this seems to be in reference to 1.1 not 2.0 : 'Lies about 1.1 being a draft. Drafts do not come with contracts attached. Further, it was never called a draft in their meetings with creators: in the same meetings where they were supposed to feel safest, according to Wizards.'

    1.1/Terms Signature Leak, it was a draft?

    A 3PP publicly commented in a way that is relevant to the subject of your thread. Short of you convincing a 3PP to break an NDA your chances of accessing "primary sources about the term sheet offered to 3PP" are effectively nil.

    Kyle Brink (D&D Exec Producer) On OGL Controversy & One D&D (Summary)

    To maintain the continued availability 22½ years of Open Game Content, a non-insignificant amount of it is not derived from any pre-existing D&D material nor otherwise has anything to do with D&D. Multiple non-D&D RPGs have used the Open Gaming License such as Gumshoe, FATE, MG Traveller, MG...

    Kyle Brink (D&D Exec Producer) On OGL Controversy & One D&D (Summary)

    An unflattering review is not necessarily a product sales link. Is that or Sisters of Rapture one of those so-called "racist", "anti-inclusive" OGL products that Wizbro was claiming that they needed to "de-authorize" OGL 1.0a to protect everyone?

    WotC It's time for a D&D Theme Park

    You said : I responded : You implied that since Ren Faires don't have "rollercoasters and tilt-a-whirls" they wouldn't qualify as a "basic carnival" : So I listed a bunch of carnival-like things larger Ren Faires often have :

    Kyle Brink (D&D Exec Producer) On OGL Controversy & One D&D (Summary)

    In that past whenever this has been bought up and I ask the names of any racist OGL releases of the past 22½ years, I never get an answer, the subject just get changed. As far as I know, MYFAROG (Mythic Fantasy Role-playing Game) is not an OGL product. Varg Vikernes

    Kyle Brink (D&D Exec Producer) On OGL Controversy & One D&D (Summary)

    Last week I dropped $400 for hardcopies of Adventures Dark and Deep. I prefer reactive, emergent gameplay & combat as war.

    WotC It's time for a D&D Theme Park

    Sounds like you went to Southern Faire in Irwindale back in 2019. Are you honestly telling me you missed the unavoidable amount of 17th/18th century pirates, the fantasy/anachronistic cosplayers, the petting zoo, the TARDIS by the food court, the trampolines, the swing rides, etc...? I recall...

    WotC It's time for a D&D Theme Park

    When's the last time you've been to one? Have you not seen pirates on the Queen's zip-lines, fairies ordering food from the King's food trucks or furries in the Duke's inflatable hamster balls?
