this was a great video! hopefully this has some reach, bc it’s frustrating how many 5e GMs I see online saying that they don’t want to support WotC so they’re just going to pirate the new books instead—as if they’re not still contributing to D&D’s play culture & free publicity. Ethics of piracy aside, it still feels like they’re supporting WotC
