    Something like wanting to change the D&D licensing so that they can share in any profits made by 3rd parties, anyone making user content, adventures, etc.

      The key part was they made it retroactive just like unity did. Essentially meant you needed to both pay wizards and also they could use any of your content without paying you. They wanted to kill Pathfinder.

        Let’s not forget squeezing money from actual plays like Critical Role.

            Really? I haven’t watched in a long time! Why don’t they just go back to pathfinder like before they began to stream?

              They just want to make their own system. They are publishing board games and stuff too. Their new systems (theres 2 of them) were actually pretty deep in the works before WOTC shit the bed.

              The cynical side of me? More monies.

              The charitable side of me? Pathfinder/5e don’t do what they want out of a system.
