[QUOTE="TheSword, post: 9244141, member: 6879661"] I feel [USER=16668]@Ulorian - Agent of Chaos[/USER] ’s pain. I was going to respond on his behalf but to be honest life is too short to get into a point by point argument on topics like these. The OGL was an extremely beneficent gift to the community. Expanding the creative input of the hobby by giving folks chance to publish their own work and make a living doing it. A great shame that some folks are trying to poison the well by trying to turn 3pp into a pocket of resentment. That just feels like entitlement to me. If your brother lets you stay in his house rent free, sure be annoyed if he tries to charge you rent later down the line but at least show some gratitude that you’ve got a roof over your head. That said it’s a tiny slice doing that and I suspect the echo chamber is extremely small. If folks don’t like WotC and don’t buy their products that’s their choice. They can join the other millions of people that play and don’t buy the products. Barely a dimple in that immense mass. I’m sure there’s enough people that do buy them that D&D will survive particularly if their products are as good as last years have been and as good as the playtest seems to indicate 5.25 will be.
