[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 8875385, member: 59057"] Yes. But right now, we see a lot of baseless specualtion. As soon as we see what is actually written in the OGL 1.1, we have some base to talk about. When we finally see how the reporting system works, we have some more base. And when they finally tell us how their stance about using the oler OGL is, we might stop speculating. The creator badge could just be a sign that what you do is semi official. You might even use: compatible with OneDnD. This will help customers decide if something is actually worth something. That does not mean in any way, that most 3rd party things are worth their money. But with the openness of the old OGL, there are grifters... One thing going for the GSL for 4e (which someone posted) was that it disallowed things like book of erotic fantasy that appeared to be halfway official... So there are a multitude of ways, how the new OGL might benefit the customers of 3rd party tools, and I hate the narrative many youtube videos try to propagate... ... that wotc is an evil corporation that just creates junk and sells it to clueless people who just don't know better... ... which is not only offending towards wotc, but every customer that decides to stick with D&D, because they like the system and have not found something that is really better.
