    Hot take: the government should take D&D and give its rights to a non-profit to be managed for the benefit of the community and its employees.

      That’s essentially what the ORC License does. Paizo wrote it, but then gave it to a law firm that represents several developers so no one RPG owns it.

        Isn’t that more of a license under which games can be developed than a game unto itself? Or did I misunderstand? Also, I want it to be managed by the community, not some law firm.

          Yes, it’s a license. But nothing is to stop you for making your own free community-driven game under that license.
