Wizards of the Coast has had a chequered history when it comes to electronic products and support for its games. Some things have worked very well, such as the Magic: the Gathering site. Other things have been buggy and problematic throughout, but have generally been positively received, such as...

Cao needs to be fired. He is singlehandedly responsible for this entire mess.

I've been using the #FireChrisCao hashtag on twitter. I wonder what it would take to make him Twitter's main character for a day.

I'm glad I saw this before I took the OGL survey. Now, I see no other way but to vehemently defend 1.0a.

From what D&D Shorts says, WoTC-Skynet are absolutely determined to eliminate all VTTs - Foundry, Roll20, Fantasy Grounds et al - these are their John Connors.

Hasbro/WOTC doesn't need to touch the OGL to win that battle. It just has to launch its own VTT and use its power as market leader to drive players to it.

When Microsoft Teams launched in late 2016, Slack had 5 million users. By late 2020 Teams had 75 million and Slack had 12 million.

The Hasbro board has two former Microsoft vice presidents on it, so they know how to win that game.

Legit?!

Long story short: Corp is gonna Corp.

Wow. What an absolute shambles.

For those questioning D&D Shorts' "journalistic integrity" find the bit in the video where he goes into all the juicy tabloid details about Ray Winninger's story. That's more integrity than most journalists ever show.

Oh, god, Gleemax. I forgot all about that! Did that actually do any damage? I always just saw it as kind of a joke that fell apart. I didn't HATE it the way I do this.
