Message: <blockquote data-quote="Immeril" data-source="post: 8032036" data-attributes="member: 7021408">(1) More attention at time of release (explicity stated in my post). A publisher/author can not predict how the public will respond to their work in 35/80/... years from now. But they should be smart enough to understand when something is controversial today.(2) Yes. As I said, Disney was stupid enough to release this movie in a time when it's content wasn't widely accepted. I have previously stated in this thread that I applaud the updates to Curse of Strahd and Tomb of Annihilation. CoS and ToA are part of the now.(3) This doesn't tell me anything, since I have never stated this. I refer to post #8.(4) It is the most compelling defence (see (1)). Definitely better than someone saying 'this product is more important/influential than that one'.I should like to think that there is still a difference between countering an argument and nitpicking over an expression of (un)certainty.We are having an argument about what is "better". You can't agree with the statement 'WotC is being hypocritical for selling OA' while at the same time ignoring the fact that publishers make a profit printing public domain books that have (again, to our current standards) dated and offensive content. Doesn't the publisher have a moral obligation to stop spreading offensive content?You're also ignoring the fact that different countries have different public domain laws.</blockquote>
