Kind of disappointed to hear Matt shill D&D Beyond in the midst of this #ogl11 disaster, even if realistically I'm sure they're under contract w/Hasbro. Still, though. :-( #critrole

OGL 1.1 - Frog God Games Issues Official Statement Regarding 1.1 - Time to Fight

Cancelled my d&d beyond subscription in response to the OGL 1.1. There are plenty of other systems out there, and I have no desire to give it to #WizardsOfTheCoast / #Hasbro to further their corporate greed.

Another meme sent to me on the Discord server based off current events. I take no credit for this. These memes are getting out of control LOL

According to one of the original architect of the OGL, Hasbro cannot revoke former licences. All previous materials written under OGL1.0a will stay. No worries.

Ryan Dancey -- Hasbro Cannot Deauthorize OGL

I reached out to the architect of the original Open Gaming License, former VP of Wizard of the Coast, Ryan Dancey, and asked his opinion about the current plan by WotC to 'deauthorize' the current OGL in favour of a new one. He responded as follows: Yeah my public opinion is that Hasbro does...

I wish we were totally unaffected by WoTC messing with the OGL. But, we are prepping a Kickstarter based on it so I'm way more aware of all the commentary than I'd like to be. #ttrpg #ogl11
One more personal, non-lawyer, observation of the leaked #OGL11 I have is that the use of #revenue rather than #profit means #Hasbro #WotC is ignoring all of those involved in creating the #3PP content (designers, writers, editors, graphic designers, proofreaders, artists, etc.) and telling the 3PP company, “you pay us first”. They really do just want to force 3PPs out of business because they certainly aren’t going to put all of those people on the Hasbro/WotC payroll.

Really nice article explaining all the legal challenges around the new OGL1.1 from WotC #ogl11 #OGLGate

Let’s Take A Minute To Talk About D&D’s Open Gaming License (OGL)

Hi all! My name is Noah Downs, aka MyLawyerFriend! I am a licensed attorney with a focus on business, and intellectual property issues in the tabletop and digital gaming industries. There is a lot of…

Seriously - at this point, they could come out with a new version of Planescape with new artwork from Tony DiTerlizzi, or a new Dark Sun with fresh Brom art, and I'd still tell them where they can stick it. I don't care if it's good - it's poison now.

They can't take my existing books, and I'll still finish my existing campaigns, but anything new is likely to be under different games. #ogl #OneDnD #ogl11 #BoycottWizards

The new OGL is going to be a completely toxic document and is effectively unusable by any 3rd-party developer (including devs who aren't even making 5e content, like Paizo, since it's still all OGL 1.0, which 1.1 will try to render unauthorized and thus invalid). As of now, I recommend completely cutting off any future WotC purchases. #ogl #OneDnD #ogl11 #BoycottWizards
