[QUOTE="Levistus's_Leviathan, post: 8896578, member: 7023887"] Most of the people I've seen say "I'm never giving WotC a penny again" are not 3rd party publishers. From what I've seen on this site and others (Reddit and D&D Beyond), a lot of the people saying "I'm boycotting WotC forever" are people that already have a vendetta against WotC from some "sin" they committed a decade or two ago, or already weren't buying 5e stuff anymore. Definitely not all of the people, but from what I've seen, it's definitely a lot. And a lot of them are gloating about "how they told us so". That's immature. And it's folly to trust a corporation. Corporations and other companies are not deserving of trust. They're not people and change whenever the leadership changes. Things changed for the worse, and they could change for the better. I don't "trust" corporations to do anything except try to make more money. Not defending their actions, but personifying corporations or having parasocial relationships with them is unhealthy. Boycott them to achieve something. The people on this site that already hated WotC because of 4e or Tasha's or whatever petty thing they did/published and are now gloating about it are acting immaturely and diverting the conversation away from what it should be about: how this could still impact 3rd party publishers and how to fix that/convince WotC to make even more changes to the planned OGL.
