I am just personally uninterested in the direction the game is going with the OneD&D, and I think the source of this muddling path is do to the failure of the original business maneuver with the OGL revision.

I absolutely agree. Although, I think the consequences of that decision has been something of a "Let a Thousand Flowers Bloom!" D&D-knock-off renaissance. And I'm pretty happy with that, given how a lot of my old favorites from Palladium and Rollmaster and GURPS seem to have found some new life.

I don't really see things getting better under Hasbro, so any major shakeup might be a good thing overall.

I would love to see the Onyx Path (ie, old White Wolf) folks find their legs again. Miss myself some old school Vampire: The Masquerade.
