Some people are pushing the wrong way to boycott…

It’s not “End your current D&D game!” WotC doesn’t give a shit if you play a thing you’ve already bought… they have your money for that stuff already.

It’s “Stop giving WotC/Hasbro money!” Share, pirate, copy, buy second hand… just don’t give them reason to think you’re okay with the coming changes.

While you don’t HAVE to do anything, paying them tells Hasbro you’re onboard with their plans for D&D

I’m not okay with Chris Cao’s Zynga mobile games approach to monetising the game

I am opposed to them carving up D&D so that more and more things are gated behind microtransactions

It’s not ok for them to kill the VTT’s that kept D&D going during the pandemic and no-one was leaving the house

It’s not cool that they tried to strong-arm creators with a shitty OGL then lie and say it was a draft.

Now they are trying to get us to be cool with a new draft that doesn’t stop them from bringing back the stuff that was in the old one

Competition is good for us, the consumers, it keeps them innovating and encourages them to keep the players happy so they win our cash. If they eliminate the competition we have to put up with whatever they decide to do because they’re the only option. Corporations are not your friend and brand loyalty is a scam. They want to extract as much from us for as little as possible, it’s what they do, but we can leverage buying power to make it so that the “little as possible” is them delivering a quality product in a way that we like. This is the war you are always in when a big business, especially one that doesn’t understand the thing they just bought, tries to shift the course of something you love.

It is great to broaden your RPG horizons, try new games, throw some money to the competition but you don’t have to give up your weekly D&D game.

Just try to keep playing it without giving them money. If Chris Cao has his way they’ll be killing DnDBeyond anyway.

Edit: This isn’t me imploring you to stick with D&D, this is me saying that if thinking you had to give up your weekly game was your reason for not joining the boycott, you don’t.

I used to hate the word faggot but now I realize that it's probably one of the only things that the gay community has left that isn't being sanitized, shined, and sold back to us at a premium by deceitful ass companies who claim to like us but then vote for policies that kill us. you're not gonna see a bank in a pride parade with banners that say "we love faggots" but you sure as hell will see a gay person saying "I love being a faggot" it feels so more real.

and I want it to stay controversial too because if a bank ever feels like they have the right to say "haha faggot right guys? 😏🏳️‍🌈" we should be able to publicly execute their ceo

Snail has decided to start a Pokémon Violet nuzlocke! It’s already going not so great lol

They would be friends

gojo CANNOT keep his hands off of nanami 🙄

I love you, George Takei.

Sometimes I think about the one time in elementary school when I told another kid I was Polish and they immediately went on a rant about how Poland wasn’t real

Bro i just work here💔
