EU tabletop RPG devs form union after D&D OGL drama, vowing to "protect the creators of the sector"
They are also advocating for RPGs to 𝔉be r𒅌ecognized as a "form of art"

European developers have banded together to form the European RPG Studios Union after changes to theꦑ D&D OGL caused public backlash.
The group is formed of Acheron Games (a leader for original RPGs in Ital🌠y), the team behind the "most awarded French RPG" Studio Agate, and independent German publisher Uhrwerk Verlag. Its goal is to prom🔴ote the industry and protect creators, so is supporting the #OpenDnD movement that has sprung up this month following the D&D OGL controversy. It is also seeking to "advocate for role-playing games acknowledgment as a genre of literature and form of art before national and European institutions."
reads. "They are a tool to develop soft skills for the players. Their distribution and practice needs to be encouraged, taught, and supported by institutions just as for other artistic media such as movies, music, and video games."This is the latest development in a chain of high-profile studios breaking away from D&D. Major rival Paizo announced a new lice🍬nse that was so popular it crashed the website, and another big name in the industry (Kobold Press) is striking out 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:with its own tabletop RPG system. The publisher behind Alien and Lord of the Rings TRPGs has also 澳洲幸运5开奖ꦬ号码历史查询:announced plans🧔 to develop its own licenses.
The situation is moving quickly; D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast has since announced that it 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:won't be changing the OGL after all. This will likely come as a relief to many, and it was due to fan feedback like these 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:comments suggested by a lawyer.
