[QUOTE="Uta-napishti, post: 8866573, member: 7026422"] This is [B]extremely[/B] dissapointing. Man, I am mad. My take on this is that it goes way too far on poisoning the market for third party products. I think that this is the day that 3rd party publishers will have to decide to stick with 5E, and the community will have to release our own patches / updates to that SRD rather than moving on to basing our work on One DnD. The open OGL 1.0 and the 5E SRD was what got me into creating D&D compatible products in the first place (although part of that license is that you aren't allowed to say D&D Compatible), and there is no way I am going to move to a less open license for any future work. Ya lost me Guys! Is is too easy just to say that this is the inevitable train wreck result once you start bringing in Microsoft executives to run a company whose ecosystem was created by open licenses? No, I think I'll build my stuff back here in the free ecosystem, and ignore new design from WoTC now. :( [/QUOTE]
