I think we're seeing, yet again, that there is a gravitational pull toward security and the comfort of familiar brands and faces. It's hard to resist and some people have a much lower tolerance for venturing outside of the familiar places they know.Which is kinda weird, since that’s the part that started this whole poop storm. Remember when the rumors that the OGL was going away started, and we all laughed them off because we were so sure it was irrevocable? When nobody was worried because even if WotC released a terrible new license, 3PP could just keep using the old one? Yeah, that switch flipped because the leaked 1.1 draft made clear that they were trying to revoke 1.0 after all. Now WotC says they’re going to edit 1.1 to make it less egregious but they’re still revoking 1.0 and suddenly a bunch of people are fine with it? Did we all get so caught up in the outrage we forgot what we were actually mad about in the first place?
Everyone thinks of themselves as a ranger, but a whole lot of people are actually hobbits.
I don't think that makes them bad people. It just is what it is, even if I strongly disagree with them.
