But me personally I don't think most companies would have jumped on the D20 train with out the OGL. Even if we say only half did, thats still only half the 3pp stuff. So still I think it would have effected how long many people including me would have stuck with 3.x DnD. I am not saying I am right but i do believe that's true. But I also think had the OGL been restrictive we would have seen the same number of companies jumping on as there is with the GSL. To me that's all the proof you need to show most companies wouldn't have done it.Of course we will now never know and all we can all do is guess. I just know with out a lot of 3pp stuff I would have stopped playing DnD and moved on to other stuff. I speculate that with a less open or time restricted OGL you would have had the same turn out as what the GSL has. Which to me is not nearly enough to keep it going.</blockquote>
