This statement sounds somewhat contrary to WotC's publicly declared reasons for creating the OGL: to benefit from it. joe b.

I'm getting that feeling as well although I have no confirmation. I mean... "OCTOBER 4, 2022 PAWTUCKET, R.I.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), today announced Dan Rawson has joined Wizards of the Coast in a newly created role as Senior Vice President of Dungeons & Dragons. Mr. Rawson...

And that's not including all the different systems that used the OGL, like D6, FATE, Mongoose's Traveller & RuneQuest BRP. What, WotC is now going to say that those systems aren't open content and are not longer usable under the OGL even when they are completely different games?

I've published material that is 100% OGC content under this license that is not derivative of WotC's SRD, if they revoke the license, is all the material I released now suddenly not open material? Or is that the kind of stuff that is part of "all sublicenses shall survive the termination of this...

I too have been dragged out of mothballs over this. :D Heya, Henry!

I am also quite interested in this as well. - 1) For instance, X person publishes a 100% open content work work the day before the new OGL goes into effect saying that all prior OGLs are now invalid. 20% of the content of this work was derived from WotC's SRD, 80% wasn't. 2) Two days later Y...

All the arguments come down to "You may use any authorized version of this License to copy, modify and distribute any Open Game Content originally distributed under any version of this License." in sect 9. Every publication released under the OGL is released under an authorized version of the...

The part where they are saying that the license is no longer valid is in another license, that you haven't agreed to use if you don't publish anything under it. One does not alter existing contracts (which is what a license is) via another contract that not all parties have agreed to. . (Edit...

Here's my thoughts on the matter, for what they're worth. The original license was an agreement between WotC and the user. At the moment that the user published a product under that license, the license was authorized. And perpetually so. There is no revoking that authorization, particularly...

Perpetual does.

It was in one of the threads at the MeWe group: MeWe: The best chat & group app with privacy you trust. joe b.

Just read a play report of a party who decided to use a rock to mud scroll to make a safe place to camp in Arden Vul and accidentally bored into a hidden treasure room in the process! joe b.

Thanks for the link correction. Somehow it got truncated from my cut-n-paste. joe b.

Cool! I didn't know about that. joe b.

I'm not overly familiar with 5e, so I'm sorry to say I can't answer that question. Another one I think I'm not able to answer. Sorry! joe b.
