Or be like me and abandon D&D outright in favour of Pathfinder.
Nice! I do love me some Pathfinder. When I want a superheroic high-fantasy game, I'd run Pathfinder over 5e without the slightest hesitation.
I decided to cut this bit for space (and I already ran long!) but part of the fallout of WotC's shenanigans was that other publishers got a LOT of business. Paizo sold out of something like eight months of inventory in a matter of weeks, Goodman Games had similar record sales, and tons of others noticed a bump. D&D was synonymous with tabletop RPGs for a lot of people, but the backlash to the OGL changes put a huge dent in that market domination. I've never seen so many people talk about branching out and trying something new.
