RIP Roll20, maybe you should have been nicer.

Never mind. Not true.

 

[Ruin Explorer]

Well if true that answers that question! I thought Foundry was too complex/unfriendly for them too do this with, but I guess I can only be Nostradamus rather than Nostradumbass once a day.

 

[Grendel_Khan]

Wishful thinking here, I assume?

 

[Waller]

Roll to disbelieve. Foundry announced it was teaming up with Paizo for offical content just the other day.

Folks this reads like a prediction not a fact. If it were a fact there would be a link in the OP to an announcement.

I've edited the OP's thread title to avoid misinformation.

I agree. This seems like a fake announcement to me. I don't have a lot of data, but a $24M valuation sounds low.

EDIT: I have to agree with the skeptics at this point; I can't find anything anywhere to substantiate this prediction. Links or it's just a wish-fulfillment.

 

[JThursby]

This is based on nothing. I can't find any mention of this anywhere.

OP, why did you post this? This is just going to confuse people.
