M30 (3oth edition) wants its lunch money back...

If you look at the current state of MtG, they absolutely threw out sustainability along with the bathwater for short-term profit. Their stocks are down by 40% because of this fact.

One concern is: what exactly will they do with all of the financial information that they gather? One possibility is that they use the OGL-finance data to start demanding royalties in descending tiers. Tax the top 20 to start, figure out the financial landscape, and start charging rent on the...

If they could have done that they would have done it already when they released the 4e GSL. This is probably the best solution they can present to the actually-open original OGL.

But we also don't know the contents of the finalized 1.1 version until release, there could be other limitations, such as needing corporate approval for your book based on content, or other factors that we aren't privy to yet.

You could almost say he saw this coming.

I guess this is what they meant by "under monetized."

The 4th edition GSL comes to mind, history repeating itself yet again. At the very least, youtube videos talking about the rumor of no OGL at all were just wasting everyone's time.

To further this, due to the ongoing lawsuit against github regarding AI art and coding, they have changed Stable Diffusion (the free UK based open source ai art generator) to not allow artist names to be used. You can still use stable diffusion, but it won't allow artist names as prompts. The...

Its all good. What we are trying to do is inform people of the facts, which is IMO the opposite of panicking. Its setting the record straight. You are of course free to have your own take on the matter. There are some good youtubers with a level head (Treantmonk certainly is one of them). But...

sad but true.

And disinformation is now moving faster than fact. As of today, there are at least ten different youtubers making new videos about the OGL rumor, and not one of them knows anything about the actual content of the OGL or the SRD. Its getting ridiculous. I'm not going to post any videos on the...

The idea seems to have been around for a while I guess, but sometimes ideas take a while to succeed in practice. It is a shame they dropped the project.

My bets on the Eisenhorn trilogy as one possibility. It was probably one of the better novels (didn't read many, but I remember Eisenhorn well enough). Not to mention that Inquisitors have unquestioned autonomy/ authority within the empire (they can operate outside the empires oppressive...

Its been almost twenty years since I was in college too, and I entered college as a teenager by testing out early, and honestly I don't remember every detail perfectly, but I am only human. Furthermore, I was studying this subject of my own volition, and I had no peers to review my work as it...

I wrote my college thesis on the Atomic Audit years ago, I am a bookworm, and it was the biggest book in the college library. The essay consisted of a breakdown on the waste management side of the industry, and it was pretty bad. The costs of containing radioactive waste is expensive, and they...

I guess i would be folk then, seeing as I have been using the OGL since its inception and not much else.

Awesome! congrats to you on getting them into a creative hobby! that's pretty cool to get them interested that early. As for the horror story, It's been a few years now, so I am sure their DMing has improved considerably since then, since I do trust that those that apply themselves will always...

There's a big difference between n64 goldeneye and starcraft or counterstrike multiplayer before high speed internet was a thing.

I remember getting together to play video games with friends was a whole entire process: LAN Parties. Hours and potentially hours for everyone to show up with their PC's, then to hook everything up. Then starcraft and counterstrike until the sun went up. Then crash till the sun went down, then...
