[QUOTE="Lichbeard, post: 8899397, member: 7026942"] Are you willing to bet your life on it? Prob not right? Either are a lot of other people who make a living doing it. So people are already being shut down. Kickstarters ended before even starting, entire companies trying to figure out another avenue to keep their bills paid, employees paid and the lights on. A LOT of people depended on the concrete agreement with the OGL1.0a to exist. WOTC set this all up and reaped the benefits for over 20 years. Then out of the blue is trying to destroy these people's livelihoods. If you are really just fine with that then I'm not sure what a company needs to do to make your naughty list but maybe you need to rethink it? The OGL 2.0 thing even tells many of those companies they won't be sued for what they already did(how nice of them) but they can't make any new product on their own OGL rpg all the way up to people making product for 5E. All the best products for 5E are third party. WOTC pays minim wage rates and you pay for what you get. BAH People freak out of every little thing online so people are used to hearing the sky is falling over every little thing. It builds an attitude of apathy. So when something really forked up happens.....that apathetic attitude steps in and people just don't care. Our only hope is enough people do care to make a difference. [/QUOTE]
