MODERATORS
I don't think any of these were created per se from the debacle but certainly it helped grow them and maybe push timelines up.
I can't speak to the creation of new systems, but it certainly gave me the push to try existing alternatives.
Paizo's modifications to Pathfinder 2E are a direct response to the OGL debacle. They're tearing out all the stuff that was only in there because they were still chained to the SRD.
Like stats only counting when you had two of them so you have to take them two at a time or else it's a waste.
