I agree with these as the likely outcomes. Though right now it feels mostly like 1e/2e is likely.

The $200,000 stretch goal fills me with joy, and his writing about his thinking around the subject earns my respect so much.

Ralishaz laughing around the corner…

To be fair, Matt has referred to D&D as “the boomer game” on and off for a bit now in streams when he points out how the game adheres to designs set in place back in the early 70s evolved from wargaming. And I’ve heard him call it “the Seattle company“ for a few years at least. WotC buying the...

I think they wanted this settled before the next playtest was put out because the upcoming playtest surveys would have been rubbished. Still mad this seems to have killed Arcadia.

Well well. I feel like this whole thing was so unfortunate because it has left a new scar among the community that might never heal. But I’m glad at least for this. My cynicism expects a new license for the new edition changes but it will probably not be OGL-related.

It felt like this article leaned heavily into righteous advocacy.

For context, I think a lot of people’s reactions to Matt’s thread would be better informed if they first watched his recent Revolutionary Acts YouTube video, then follow up with reading that thread.

The Human “nation” of outsider wandering family clans, (Rhennee/Vistani/Aperusa) The Human nation of raiding sea warriors who have anger issues.

To expand this from just steam age. Widen to full pulp adventure spectrum from steam age to Nicola Tesla time to fighting Nazis. Kind of the spectrum covered under the D20-era Forbidden Kingdoms. Drop this into some iterum that was forked in a distant era like Latter Earth’s background and...

And it possible that while supporting the creation of the ORC once it is actually finalized they choose not to or use sonething else.

Even those of us who experienced this in our lives then can easily forget what this was like. My groups’ had regulars drop off because half the group drifted to WoW and those groups never restarted once we were down to a couple of us.

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...
