So the easiest answer to your question would be to watch the video.From what I've seen and read about the issue, the key complaint seems to be that Darrington Press has as part of the license, if you create something with it and then we make something official that's similar, you won't sue them. That's the point people are making, saying that they'll steal third-party content.Other issues involve online videos or podcasts about DH, you have to attribute it and use a thumbnail in a specific way. And that if you make a book, you need to do something similar. And that you're not allowed to make VTT content.Now I'm not a lawyer, so it seems I'm not allowed to have an opinion about this, but that seems to be the crux of it. There's already been big changes in it (Foundry has the go-ahead to make a module for it, for instance) and the first commercial third-party product for the game doesn't seem to be following the branding restrictions despite being advertised on the DH stream, so ... it's likely going to go through a lot of changes and revisions. In short, not the end of the world.But I'd suggest actually watching the video the thread started with.</blockquote>
