    It’s crazy how these companies could manage to lose their goodwill overnight one by one these 2~3 years. It’s almost like they have some secret any% fiasco RTA competition or something.

      I’m not a huge conspiracy theorist, but considering the c-level execs pulled their investments before all these announcements, it’s not out of the question that they could tip people off to short the company as well.

      Hell the realist in me sees the fines these guys get and they see it as a cost of doing business.

      Wizards Of The Coast: Ha, it will never affect us if we change our licensing and hurt the little guy. End consumers don’t care and no one reads these things anyway. “We have an announcement about changes to our EULA!”

      Internet and DND community revolt, Pathfinder 2 sees a massive boost, and content providers are scared now.

      Unity: Surely nothing similar could happen to us if we change our licensing? “We have an announcement about changes to our EULA…”
