This is fantastic news. They also said they will go to court over if WoTC try to “deauthorise” OGL 1.0a which is just epic.

Edit: The site went down lmao. Epic stuff.

Edit: BTW, Paizo is the company that also recognised their Union without requiring it to go to vote or hiring anti-union shitheads.

    oh yeah, you're right, they're solving the "sorry i can't make tonight" game scheduling nightmare by just having all of us play from a patented fucking zoom call, but everyone beat them to the punch so they're trying to poison pill the OGL (from what i understood) to no longer cover stuff that isn't just a pdf (like online services), yeah brave plan, hope they choke; wotc didn't comment afaik because they haven't actually officially announced anything yet, but i hope this continues blowing up in their face

      They were gonna livestream today but cancelled it last minute because of an unexpected leaked email and the subsequent massive cancellations of DNDBeyond subs.

          There was a massive leaked email earlier today from an employee that said all the execs cared about is DNDBeyond subs and they considered the consumers just obstacles to be overcome to get their money. They also expected this to blow over by the weekend or something.

          In response, the community decided en masse to delete their DNDBeyond subs leading to the site shutting down for a while. This is probably also the reason they cancelled the stream they had planned for today to explain the new OGL.

          I made a post.
