Topic 1: Wizards to Update the OGL

Submitted by Chad

Almost all of the major d20 3^rd party publishers have announced that until the OGL is changed or updated they will not be producing content for 4e. Is this announcement a good sign that their forced embargo will come to an end soon?

Topic 2: 4e – Vocal Segment of Gamers Do not Like the Game

Submitted by Rob

4th Edition D&D. There is still a lot of uproar from a vocal segment of the gaming population over 4th Ed. Ultimately, do you think it will bring back more old and new gamers or drive old gamers away?

Topic 3: Paizo's Pathfinder

Submitted by Rob and Chad

In an attempt to mollify gamers upset with 4th Edition Pazio has released the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. This game is and OGL game which updates enough game elements to be a "D&D 3.75". Will this find an audience? Might it be a good move for DM's like Todd who are not ready/willing to convert to 4th Ed but not happy with 3.5?
