[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 1587609, member: 2205"] How is that bad? And although it'd be difficult to scope it, how is that different really from the way it used to be when D&D was almost unplayable, and everyone had houserules? I don't think you're going to get very far with that argument. I'm not sure what you're point is, other than that you wish other people didn't play games that aren't D&D. Since I wouldn't be playing d20 at all if D&D was the only way I could play it (not being involved in a D&D game at the moment, and not really interested in one either, for that matter) then we are clearly at opposite ends of the spectrum. I can only conclude that what you mean by all this is that, and you'll forgive me if this comes across as putting words in your mouth, "I don't like the OGL because it makes it more likely that I'll end up in games that aren't the games I want to play." You could otherwise make the argument that these same people would either be playing some other non-d20 game, or not even gaming at all, and you wouldn't be in a game at all, but that's speculative. Whichever way you go, though, I find your position to be absolutely mind-boggling. Isn't it already? [/QUOTE]
