An exclusive look at Wizards of the Coast's new open gaming license shows efforts to curtail competitors and and tighten control on creators of all sizes.

They're trying to kill Paizo for being too based. Allowing the first unions in our TTRPG market? No fucking way! Don't buy from Wizards ever again you hogs

    Paizo has made no comment so I think they are on it. The others I can think of are Kobold Press which I'm not sure how powerful they are, and Critical Role which I'm not sure about because on one hand they have been distancing themselves from established DnD lore and established their own publishing company, but they also have a good working relationship with WotC. Any other companies you can think of?

      Pretty much any TTRPG that came out after 2000 based on d20 system is built under the OGL 1, so that's a lot of companies although you did list heavy hitters I can think of. However I know a bunch of video games are also based off the d20 system under the OGL, I haven't looked into it but if I remember right KOTOR was, which means even bio-ware could come out dick swinging.
