ORC License: The Final Version is Here!

9 Comments Posted by on July 5, 2023

Thank you Paizo.

Now, if we could talk Wizards of the Cost (Hasbro) into using this one in place of their OGL.

This announcement came out a couple of weeks ago:
ORC License: The Final Version is Here!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Wizard’s of the Coast’s OGL controversy – here is a link to a post by Matthew Rossi. It is a few months old, but it covers it very well:
After controversy over changes to the OGL, Wizards of the Coast backs down offers D&D content via Creative Commons

As I mentioned previously, depending on the Wizard’s of the Coast’s behavior between now and the time the next version of D&D is released in 2024, and my opinion of that version, I will not be buying any Wizard’s of the Coast products.

This Is Important!

In a post I made in 2021 “D&D 5E – How to Publish D&D Content” I gave an overview on the Open Gaming License (OGL) and the System Reference Document (SRD). It looks like recent developments by Wizards of the Coast will be changing all of this.

If you haven’t heard about the upcoming changes, I refer you to these excellent posts.

here is a good overview by Noah “MyLawyerFriend” Downs
