Ah yes, the VTT. That is what this is all for, isn't it. I am sure that it will be very successful, but that isn't the topic of this thread.
THis thread is about the OGL and D&D and my vision is a bit dreamy, perhaps, but again, the FUTURE of the OGL will not be in the hands of Hasbro.
The FUTURE OGL will be something entirely new, it may not even be called "OGL," but I do believe these 3rd party creators will produce a universal SRD and license.
It will have nothing to do with Hasbro's proprietary VTT game that they will call D&D. The VTT will come out in 2024, and it very well may be a huge success for a year or two, or 5.
Then the rot will sink in, and folks will start looking for a better way to play (like they always do.) And that is when the 3rd party products will gain market.
Wild Prediction: In 10 years, most TTRPG gamers are playing something else entirely while Hasbro files for bankruptcy.
Looks like WotC is releasing a video at 3pm EST today to address CGL 1.1. Roll for Combat YouTube channel is going to cover it.

"Orcs are savage raiders and pillagers with stooped postures, low foreheads, and piggish faces with prominent lower canines that resemble tusks." MM p245 (original printing)
You don't OWN your books on DDB: WotC can change them any time. What do you think will happen when OneD&D comes out?
Well, this will be fun!

Yes, I just saw this. Unfortunately this authenticity has not yet been confirmed, but I guess we'll see what they say in their 3pm video.

Seems to me that the timing is probably intended to have itself be "verified" by whatever comes this afternoon.
If they turn out to be a prophet, oops, confirmed.
Oops for WotC that is.

Info, Inflow, Overload. Knowledge Black Hole Imminent!
It’s a modern adaptation of the tale: The goose who laid golden eggs!
In 5 minutes we will all find out if Hasbro upper management is as obtuse as we all think it might be. I am prepared to believe they have learned nothing since the MTG disaster. If so this will be a watershed moment for D&D...
money money money that all wizards care about welcome to the world of capitalism every one at the top wants their bit. So has any one herd about path finder ??

How did it go?
Appears that they canceled it. We’re all still waiting.
Probably canceled because it’s going to be a bloodbath.
I don't think it's happening.
Their twitch page lists a stream today 1/12 at noon (PST) has been cancelled.
I wonder if the depth to which people are upset with them is starting to sink in.
Just unsubscribed!
I have my comment to explain why I am unsubscribing ready to launch... I am waiting to see what their official reaction will be, but I most likely will unsubscribe as soon as my players have their character sheets and put them someplace else.
I have a ticket in to delete my account, already canceled my subscription but it's not up until August.
The age of OGL is over. The Time of the ORC has come!
The moment that WotC declares OGL 1.0a "de-authorized", "revoked" or any such nonsense is the moment I release as much content as possible under OGL 1.0a and say, "Sue me WotC". OGL1.0a cannot be revoked. If thousands of us do it, the countersuit will be a class action suit.
