[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 9631230, member: 1"] I am very aware that they worry about it. But I reiterate that they don’t need to. That’s why I keep saying it. Maybe they’ll believe me or maybe they won’t, maybe they’ll worry less, maybe they won’t, but I’ve given the facts as best I can, and consider myself very qualified to do so. And I will say it again any time the subject comes up. That’s nice for them. :) Well, WotC’s marketing success is their thing. I’m Not involved with that. More specifically he intended it for [I]D&D[/I]. And yes, it worked. Then, and forever. Go ahead and make your 3.5/5e/2024 compatible products using the existing licenses. Or your 1e/2e products (plenty of people are—that’s the basis of the OSR movement. They aren’t using an official 1E SRD or an OD&D SRD? They understood this years ago. Not really. They could support 2024. We do. I can’t speak to WotC’s desires. All we can do is go by the letter of the licenses. The words they are legally using, not the ones we imagine they might intend or want. And those words let you do everything you need to. [/QUOTE]
