I re-edited the 300 video again, adding what we learned from the OGL this week. There's no extra content at the end because my battery died, but I think you'll enjoy it. 

May all your rolls be 20s!

Excited to see what you added, loved the YouTube shorts you posted earlier

baldrage

Really liked the additions. Wish you had updated the outro -- would love to hear what Deathbringer has to say about 1.1 license!

Lee Caddick

Well that turned a corner didn't it? Fuck 'em.

Brian Leet

Good update. I’m still trying to get my head around what this means for efforts like Deathbringer. As much as you just want to do your own thing it feels like Hasbro/WOTC corporate is forcing a reckoning. If they played their own products they’d recognize they are the bad guys here. Or maybe they misunderstood a proposal to get rid of alignments.

James M Spahn

So I'm watching this and my wife (who is a gamer) sees the beginning and literally stops what she's doing and busts out laughing. "This guy's great!"

David Ford

Great update. I love that it’s filled with self effacing humor. That says a lot about you and the channel. All good things, all good things.

Brent Tomlonovic

I still don't think they can deauthorize the previous OGL 1.0. The OGL 1.0 has no definition of "authorized". They can say whatever they want in the new OGL, in the same way that I can put up a license that says that I am the king of the world and everyone has to give me half their money, but that does not mean it is legally binding or that anyone will abide by it.

There he is, boiled and baked, first out of the oven, chilling on his rack, BAGEL-MAN 🤪

Love the channel Dan, been a subscriber since your first batch of videos. I just gave myself a Christmas present of some ICRPG and EZ D6 material. Unfortunately, I will likely have to settle for running ( and I do want to DM more than play) them online. I am disabled now and unable to get out without someone picking my non-car-owning butt up. I still bum rides to a friend's house where I am currently running Castles and Crusades for them. I agree, nothing is as great as playing at a table with friends. Here's to the next 300.Excelsior!

3 minutes in and this could be the funniest video you've made!! "Now they're Tweeting so fast they don't have time to vape!"

ViggenCA

So WoTC just showed what rolling a nat 1 looks like IRL.

I am too old and fat to keep up; plus, you know I only comment after watching the content...😁

PDM could start a new satire channel of just that character and I would subscribe instantly.

MrGunn

PDM I howeled when you said: "and I'm old enough to remember what a joke is!". 🤣 tears in my eyes... Good B-roll sir. Blow it all to hell! I will be there next to you saying: "Get your stinking paws off of me, you damb dirty apes!" 🦍

MrGunn

Hasbro be like: What do you mean the new OGL is terrible, folks are all on the bus for the new OGL. No they are supposed to be passengers ON the bus, not victims on the exterior of the bus 🚌

Problem is it will take someone with deep pockets to challenge Hasbro in court. Lesd an injunction, Hasbro can wreak a lot of havoc before the courts decide, and they may decide in favor of Hasbro.

It's a shame it comes down to the money. From what I've seen from lawyers comments, Hasbro would *likely* have an uphill battle trying to revoke OGL 1.0(a).

Jason Carpenter

Sacrilege! 5e art is not better! How dare you sir!!!

Bye bye WotC! Hello home brew Valhalla! Great deeds await us in the land of plastic minis, foam terrain and pencils that never have erasers somehow!

Papa Zaph

I embraced the OSR/Homebrew years ago. WotC can kick rocks! PDM, \m/ ROCK ON \m/

Nathaniel Bennett

Although I don’t play 5E, I’ve been watching the OGL discussion closely, and I’ve appreciated your prescient perspective over the past months. Hopefully the increased joy of making the videos you really want to make will make up for whatever lose of traffic you see.

Jay

One more time for those who might be interested. Check out Dave Thaumavore's video "5 Reasons Why You Should Stop Playing WotC’s D&D" (YouTube). Agree or not he makes some good points and gives a shout out to PDM Dungeon Craft and Ben at Questing Beast. Video Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQivRbkztgk

Storagezilla

How do you prevent ONE D&D getting 4E’d by the next Paizo? You make these changes to the OGL. If you have enough money to face Hasbro down in court you could prove they can’t expire the current version of the OGL. But if you don’t have the money to face Hasbro down in court, their license their rules. It would suit Hasbro just fine if everyone else stopped making D&D content. The third party future with ONE D&D may only involve selling cosmetic packs where they take 70% of the sale price from their ONE D&D online store.

The second half of the video says a lot about Hasbro.

Adrian Webster

One thing to keep in mind, sure Hasbro has the funds to go to court against everyone using 1.0(a), but that assumes Hasbro feels it worth the cost to fight. Most 1.0(a) content makes peanuts in comparison to WOTC, chasing down the smaller publishers for these peanuts and the potentially ugly publicity may not be worth it. Going after VTT platforms, streamers and video game producers etc. on the other hand may be. Yes Games Workshop does this, but GW doesnt have the same OGL issues and they still lost cases.

Moo... Great video Jay, thanks for sharing! Companies are indeed sociopaths and oddly many corporate CEOs are high functioning sociopaths, go figure.

Jay
>>99155396

Sure thing! What amazes me is how they steal ideas from consultants then fire them, can pay their workers so poorly, and treat them as well as third-party creators like slaves while claiming all of their creative work as Hasbros intellectual property. In my opinion, evil is nothing short of supercharged selfishness mixed with a lack of empathy for others. You know psychos and sociopaths.

While it's true that swatting every small fry is not cost effective they could go for one of the bigger small creators just to make a show of it, regardless of the public reaction. The question is who is large enough to be noticed my most people, yet too small to defend?

Elvis Ramone
>>99150100

Have to agree, 3 and 3.5 are good, but 5e art, well, halflings look like MODOK.

Steven

I think the solution to all of this is to Play the Game you like with like Minded players. Simple and to the pint.

Martin Thomas

Hey Professor - I LIKED the new intro! They're both good, but I might actually prefer the new one!

Also, I know you need to make the videos people want to watch and feed the algorithm, but your Caves of Carnage videos are what made me get off my butt and finally start running a campaign for my daughter & her friends during the pandemic lockdowns (still running!), and I loved your Reviled Society videos because that's the first module I ran for my 3E campaign way back in May 2001 (also still running)! So, thank you for all that.

Robert Adams

Thank you PDM, Still hangin out. I too am looking into alternatives so I don't spend my creativity on an ungrateful corporation. Isn't it amazing how every time it get's popular the current owners get STOOOPID greedy.
