I find your explanation of how this happened entirely convincing, but if this sort of thing had just happened once in isolation, this’d be a non-story. This is just such an incredibly self-inflicted bullet to the foot. Sure, WotC contracts this stuff out to an outside company, but if they do this knowing that this is how that company works, then they own it. If they haven’t presented that company with a whitelist of stuff not to issue strikes against, that’s on them. If nobody at WotC was paying attemtion to a mod that was so popular that the BG3 creators were talking it up, and nobody thought to add it to the whitelist, that’s on them too.Is it a big deal, end of the world, OGL revocation type thing? No, not even close, of course. And it was quickly sorted out once someone at WotC woke up to the PCGamer article and got hit with a clue bat. Was it yet another unnecessary PR stuff up from a company who should know full well that they’re accumulating a very long list of ‘we’re a bunch of joyless corporate jerks, ask us how’ datapoints? Absolutely.</blockquote>
