likely not a disguised martian

@loboaureo @copacetic yeah. Until they decide to argue to revoke the license for reasons.

(Also you have to watch out what part is covered under the license, some stuff is gonna be product identity)

(Actually, the beneficial part of this is mostly that you can use their own expression of the rules to make games. Rules as such are not copyrightable, but if you are expressing the rules too similar to their own texts they still could sue you. Using such a license is supposed to take care of that)

@frauddogg @StraySojourner we went back to 3rd edition. It’s a bit better.

A bit.

@Obonga @copacetic the author is putting too much effort into writing this. Obviously it hasn’t ruined roleplaying if the hobby didn’t stop. It’s not like people were forced to play that way, not even in 3e. It’s just that a lot of people took to it because it was easier for them. And yes, getting people out of the habit is an issue sometimes, but if it was successful, did it really ruin anything?

People really should calm down sometimes and let people do what they like.
