A pretty large amount of that going around, yes.Totally, just bad actors. /s

Mind you, I dont think WotC is particularly great shakes, but they remain the corporate type they have been as long as I've played D&D. I don't hold them in esteem, but their cynical profit motive creates things that I enjoy.
I mean, they have their interests to defend. Doesn't mean that I have to care, particularly.Yes, all the 3PP, all the various other RPG heads, creators.
All of them, bad actors. I mean I already know your position on all this, and you are free to have it, but no, this is not 'bad actors'.
Its Wizards taking off the mask, nothing more.

Well, sure, same as they ever were. Did you ever think theybwere more...?Of course you dont have to care. One of the joys of capitalism. Partake and consume, nod and carry on.
Just as I dont have to feel bad that Wizard's is exposed for what many of us figured, nothing but another soulless corporate husk, paying lip service to ideals and concepts, it doesnt support in deed.
No, but they pretended.Well, sure, same as they ever were. Did you ever think theybwere more...?
And they will keep pretending in the future. Same difference.No, but they pretended.![]()
No, but we kinda hope that with sufficient pressure from their customer base, they can be forced to pretend to be. Fake it til you make it and all that.Well, sure, same as they ever were. Did you ever think theybwere more...?
And maybe it will be so. In the meantime, I'm personally chomping at the bit about the actual product cing down the pipeline.No, but we kinda hope that with sufficient pressure from their customer base, they can be forced to pretend to be. Fake it til you make it and all that.
I kinda like the idea of bunch of weasly microtransaction-happy ex-big-tech execs getting pressured into pretending to be enthusiastic about open gaming. It'd be like watching Ming the Merciless unwillingly manning a soup kitchen, muttering resentfully the whole time.
Ok, I guess I was remembering the wrong product. There was one in the last year or so that was late to show up for pre-order, but I can't remember which.Dragonlance was available for preorder on DDB on August the 18th.

Yeah, fair point. Sorry.So, maybe those who want to discuss the OGL situation can do so in one of the literally dozens of other dedicated threads available to do so? This is one of the few active threads discussing other matters, and it's nice to have a space to be able to talk about something else...

that is a good thing in my book, let it disappear from the public eye and have all the D&D/RPG channels ignore it altogether
