Message: <blockquote data-quote="Scribble" data-source="post: 4411122" data-attributes="member: 23977">They did mention a while back that one of the goals with the new license was to help eliminate or shrink the "flood" this time around...Seems like those that made a name for themselves with, and are heavily invested in the OGL, have less of an incentive to switch to the GSL.Only time will tell if OGL games can survive without D&D technically being a part of it. (Or if the ability to port your GSL stuff into OGL remains that important.)At the moment, I kind of get the feeling that e might see some quality products coming out of the GSL. It's a bit stricter so those publishing into it will probably be a bit more vigilant about what they publish, less they incur the wrath of WoTC and a loss of license... But that's just my opinion.ooooooh conspiracy time... There WAS a "secret" meeting between WoTC and some of the big name companies... It was about how to handle the game license if I remember correctly, where several suggestions were made... What if the secret plan was to come out with a "bad" license which all the big guns would cry foul over, and publicly bash. The Smaller companies see this and think, I'm not getting into that if it's THAT bad... All the while the big guns are genrating products and support material for 4e... Then right around october 1st, WoTC unleashes an "updated" GSL, and low and behold... the big guns love the new license, and are able to "quickly" generate product... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" />  Conspiracy theories are fun!</blockquote>
