[QUOTE="Aldarc, post: 7866762, member: 5142"] This is twice now that you appealed to an Illuminati strawman. I don't think "blame the Illuminati" means what you think it means, Oofta. But yes, I do think that there has been a certain degree of "fear and stigma" about psionics. One of my GMs did not permit psionics in a 3.5 game because of their hearsay reputation in 1-2E. When I pressed him about what was broken or how psionics worked in 3.5, he didn't know because he had never looked. It seems as if many of the fans of psionics believe that it does fill an iconic role or otherwise there would not be calls for its inclusion as part of the game and its tradition. You can say that it's "just because [they] personally like something," but the truth probably runs deeper than saying people just want it because they like it. And what if there were official D&D campaigns where they would fit, such as in Eberron or Dark Sun? For someone who supposedly doesn't care, you do spend a lot of time in this thread trying to dismiss the opinions of people who do want them. Aren't many of these things pre-coded for the ease of VTT use? [/QUOTE]
