Dude bought card packs, recieved unreleased card packs with similar name, dude makes video unboxing and showcasing cards not knowing they were unreleased cards, WOTC sends pinkertons to his house over it.
The card packs he got were apparently stolen and scheduled to be released in 3-weeks time.
To add to this, apparently the union busting intimidation gang were âvery politeâ () and gave him a contact at WotC, who spoke to the dude and said they might look into some sort of compensation for him.
It is always morally correct to pirate WotCâs products.
WoTC is a seriously, hilariously saturday night villain company.
They also scour the internet for D&D character sheets that let you fill out all the options with their help, as well as PDF copies of their books; all so people go to D&D Beyond and pay a few years of WoW subscription worth to be able to make a character sheet with all the options they want, just to have that character die three sessions into the D&D campaign.
Meanwhile, other TTRPG franchises like World of Darkness just let you do that for free, and they straight up give you the PDF for free to share with your friends and anyone that you want if you buy a physical copy of their books.
100% bet theyâll eventually try and go for the Youtubers whoâve covered the incident like penguinz0 (Moistcritical/Charlie), it just feels like a move theyâd do.
On that note, I weep for all the trees that got sacrificed because of WotC forcing people to buy paper copies of D&D books when digital ones would have sufficed (and would be more convenient to search in the middle of a game).
WOTC really could just make such easy amounts of money by cooperating with DnD creators who usually create campaigns featuring hundreds of new monsters, items, actually useable maps for online and real-life play and tokens.
I consider us at least somewhat more entertaining and slightly less repetitive than the others.
However our wants for actual ingame moderation by humans may be very unpopular. And the same exact people having slap fights in every bigger thread does tend to get a bit tiresome to scroll past.
But no oneâs perfect.
Worked myself up to watching the finale of Owl House and am now having a small cry about it, it was so wholesome and nice waaaaaaa
Also finished Pillars 1, some great themes explored especially when the DLC expands on it but one ending slide going âoh did we not tell you about this quest that happened? guess this entire town died lmaoooooâ did put a big dent in things. Gonna have to fix that for 2 for sure
