This is bad. I don't know what to say or do about this yet. I might just ignore it, since my stuff isn't controversial at all (and I seldom talk about politics online). But I can't.
DTRPG has been fine with me, but "we will take down anything we want and cast away those who complain" sounds ominous.
I haven't heard of him in a long while, but I agree with Raggi on this one. Let's hope we can do something before it's too late.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PufXMjSA-KwEDIT: just to make it clear, I think DTRPG has a right to sell or not sell whatever they want. They could make a "RPGs for kids only" store if they wanted to. The problem is that they've got an enormous chunk of the market and now publishers who rely too much on them are suddenly on shaky ground.
And as a reader, some of my favorite RPGs contain controversial/gory stuff, and I only have them on PDF. Fortunately, I download everything I buy.
For those of you with several products out there, what's the landscape like as far as selling RPG products without interference from evil & unhinged wokists? What percentage of business comes from DTRPG, OBS, or other service that has demonstrated hostility to creators based on political reasons?
Everything. If DTRPG kicks me out (which is unlikely, I think), I'm probably done publishing RPGs, at least for the foreseeable future. I might still spread some PDFs for fun.
