The OGL debacle was just confirmation of their corporatist agenda.I have to laugh when I read/watch the news about MTG players and shareholders suing WotC/HasBro over devaluing MTG.I saw the writing on the walls with Tasha's, and the revised Mordenkainen's. I was done then with keeping current. (And Mordenkainen's was a gift from a player.)So am I, but the OGL, CC, and ORC all overcome the one thing that kept numbers of contenders down: The selection bias of distribution and publishing. Cheaper printing also helped there, as did the rise of PDF as a standard.If the reports are to be believed, Trusting in WotC is indeed trusting in the users of AI.See also Traveller 5E….Not so much creative bankruptcy, but "my tweaks are better than X, Y, and Z's tweaks".... Well, aside from Starships & Spacemen 2e... moving from not-D&D elegant but simple system to a Kludged D&D knockoff... yes, I am the bitterman, not the biggerman, on that score.</blockquote>
