[QUOTE="Pedantic, post: 8928477, member: 6690965"] I absolutely agree with you that less harm would have occurred and we would be in a better place had the OGL never been touched. Clearly, cancelled projects, potential loss of customers to other systems, less interest in 5e compatible products and so forth are all outcomes of this situation. The disconnect here is where you're putting the blame. That's all WotC's fault. They did this the moment the put the word "deauthorized" into the wild. It's not incumbent on the people they lied to to take care of the most injured subset of people they lied to. WotC should be taking aggressive steps to try and getting back the world they wrecked. The CC release was a good start, and they've done a reasonable job of talking accountability. They'll need to do more and longer, and it's probably impossible to bring us back to where we used to be, but that's definitely not my job. I didn't touch the OGL, and I'm not particularly interested in forgiving the institution that did. It's on them to persuade me I should. [/QUOTE]
