[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8873669, member: 2209"] There is a difference here. When 4e came out with no OGL 4e SRD only a very few put out 4e stuff under the OGL (Goodman Games early stuff). Paizo was continuing with 3.5 stuff and a number of people were buying and continuing to play. WotC later came out with the GSL it took a while for those few who ended up doing 4e to go with it and there were few of them, most stuck with 3.5 and then Pathfinder. For 1.1 there is the 5e OGL SRD and OGL stuff that has been going on for years. People who want to do stuff safely under the 1.0 OGL for 5e can continue to do that. If OneD&D is fairly compatible with 5e then it is fairly easy to just continue to crank out stuff based on the 5e SRD. I expect to be able to run 5e modules in One D&D. I expect to be able to use 5e monsters in One D&D. I expect most aspects of 5e settings to play without problems in OneD&D. I don't expect those publishing 5e stuff under the OGL to feel not safe in continuing to do so for stuff to be used with the new OneD&D variation. This seems a different situation than when 4e made a very different game from 3e. If 4e had been pathfinder with no OGL instead of the very different mechanics of 4e, I think a lot of publishers would probably have found a way to make compatible OGL stuff for it under the OGL.
