If there is nothing, I will dream about sending some messages to Wotc expressing our concerns. Like a petition.


I bet they don't care, Larian was openly told that they would "mix" the systems. Wotc probably knew about this.

I think they knew, and I think that our feedback about this are not reported to Wotc, and that Wotc is more concerned about the reaction of D&D fans than Larian.
So if Wotc could hear our concerns, they would probably be more interested in them than Larian currently is.

I'll go create a Twitter account and let them know. smile
Don't put too much hope into that. I doubt WotC has too much influence on Larian now although it would depend on the actual contract. But even if WotC threatens to not make future deals with them, which is probably the worst thing they can do, Larian has its own IP and does not depend on it.
I also doubt that WotC has a problem with Larian bending the rules. They are on a big D&D marketing offensive with games and the upcoming movie, so likely care more about a flashy presentation and name dropping than staying true to their rules.
Especially as with the recent books WotC has started to modify rules quite heavily themselves.
