[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8927091, member: 7030563"] They did have the intention to do it eventually since they did it. People yelled and they did it. They talked about breaking promises, planned to break promises, but they did not attempt to break promises or break any promises. You can't charge someone who did that with murder, or attempted murder and I have actually had someone point a loaded Smith and Wesson 686 at my head. As open content in the OGL? Making something available online is not the same as making something open and usable by other creators. WOTC has released a ton of product for free on DNDBeyond, well beyond what is in the SRD but you can't freely use that content in your own works, you can only use what is in the SRD. My understanding is the only Paizo products that are open content are the PF1 and PF2 SRD and the PF1 SRD is mostly not Paizos creative work but it is a reprint of the 3.5 SRD. If I am wrong about that I appologize for mispeaking, but what I am talking about here is content released under the OGL 1.0a and available for any party to use in their follow on work. Content that I can take and reprint and sell myself in print, online or in a video gamel. [/QUOTE]
