Just a silly shower thought I had after hearing about Nintendo's copyright claim against Russ from Retro Game Corps.

They only reason they don't dispatch terror squads of thugs door to door is because it would be illegal, not even because it would be bad for PR.

Ask WoTC how they feel about sending thugs to people's doors

I can't believe how many otherwise seemingly reasonable people are still involved in the MTG and D&D content ecosystems after Hasbro hired the fucking Pinkertons to threaten a Youtuber. How little self respect do they have? Promote a game that isn't made by someone who would send thugs to your house!

In fairness, I still play 5e

I haven't given WotC a dime since that fiasco, though.

The last thing I bought from them directly was the R20 integrated Out of the Abyss digital campaign for me to DM with some friends.

We got halfway and it was kinda mid. I tossed a big ass boss fight at them along with the mid-game boss and it felt final enough.

Once it releases in full, we'll be a Cosmere RPG group for a good while.
