I would love to use Cory Doctorow’s colorful neologism for the process of a corporation evolving some product through their near-monopoly in the market into a customer-abusing, partner-abusing, version that is worse at doing what attracted customers to it in the first place...

I think the content in this video makes the delay understandable. I agree pointing a big neon arrow at the invite-only chats employees are using in Teams is risky.

In a recent stream Matt Colville said MCDM’s looking for an “aggressively open” license and may have already found one.

I’m not interested in doing a fantasy heartbreaker when there is a sudden rush by… thousands? I’ll wait. But my interest has spiked for getting off my rear and doing conversions of my favorite D&D settings to play using Worlds Without Number. Especially Dark Sun. I’ve found some components of...

But how about making rushed vids during a moral panic?

If they just make a new SRD that is only accessible in the new OGL, but leave earlier SRDs available in the 1.0a, I’ll see it as a fine compromise. But I think leaving SRD 5.0 and 5.1 out there is a hard line for management. We could be seeing the future SRD available in the next OGL be...

Arcanum Worlds Canada has this to say regarding their Raiders of the Serpent Sea Kickstarter. “OGL This does not and will not affect Raiders of the Serpent Sea directly. I am confident reason will prevail. Unfortunately, it has affected the availability of contractors I was relying upon at this...

Not if you are beholden to shareholders to build an IP fortress and want to lock in under-compensated creators. Then have a license that locks that created content in on your property.

I believe the OGL update was intended to coincide with the future VTT and will make far more sense when viewed as a necessary part. That WotC management expected the future VTT will be attractive in its own right to draw designers to create material for the unreleased VTT, not so much about...

Growing “Where we go one we go all” vibes in this whole “new leak”.

I’m perfectly willing to wait see the actual full list of offerings for $30.

I’d propose to the shareholders that WotC could be better managed by an AI bot.

If the is bigger than the OGL is just “schemes to make the coming WotC-run VTT have a competitive advantage” I’ll be like “that was obvious from everything before”.

Is the $30/mo supposed to include article content like Arcadia now that it has been killed off by design? If it is ”Like Arcadia content, but actually accessible in the coming official VTT”… I’m just, eh.

Over ten thousand would be another common way of phrasing it. Double (2) digits, triple (3) digits, so 5 digits would be over 10,000 (5 digits).

An unreleased product (VTT) doesn’t need support staff yet.

I want to see someone come up with the Duck Season Rabbit Season gif but swap OGL deauthorized!/OGL reauthorized! With WotC vs Community.

Someone should create a Twitter bot that deauthorizes the 1.0a OGL at midnight then authorizes 1.0a for another 24 hours. Edit: or in an I’m Spartacus move everyone on social media add “I authorize OGL 1.0a” in their handle or signature.
