Noooo, they ditched WOTC because WOTC failed to deliver the 4E rules to third party publishers in a timely fashion. The GSL only sealed the deal. The seeds of Pathfinder had already been sowed before anyone had even seen the 4th Edition rules.

And that would be fine by me as well. The whole purpose around my response was that we are confident an/the OGL is coming. If my source was unsuccessful, and we only have a GSL, DEM will publish through that agreement considering we did so with 4th Edition without any restrictions of freedom or...

Enough to contribute to my kickstarter? ;) ;) http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1894400580/amethyst-fantasy-and-technology-collide OH COME ON; I have to try! :)

Well, I did write this: http://www.livingdice.com/5870/an-open-letter-to-save-3rd-party-dungeons-and-dragons-companies/ Maybe it DID have an impact after all. :)

Full disclosure. This conversation was old, before any playtesting material had been released. After, I found myself on the friends & family playtest, allowing me to see a version of the rules months before the open playtest started. Those were...umm...not good. They needed help, and shortly...

Morrus, I'll respond to your privately since answering here may cause issues with the NDA restrictions. I know I probably crossed that line already.

...probably because they haven't finalized the rules. I am sure there will at least be an SRD. Even though I was told there would be an OGL, that I am less certain about...but that doesn't concern me to be honest, since I plan on sticking close to WOTC in regards to 5E.

Three updates: 1: We've mentioned on the Kickstarter that we have it on authority that there will be at least an SRD and probably an OGL for D&D Next (5E). WOTC is committed in rebuilding their 3PP base after 4E. DEM was the first to sign (so goes the rumor) to the GSL, and we’re even more...

Only one week remains to support Dias Ex Machina's Amethyst Kickstarter. We've reached 80% and are so close to making it! (I can't include the link because of limitations with RPGNow mass email system. Just head on over to Kickstarter and search for "Amethyst") Here is an updated list of the...
