The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

Possibly?

I sort of feel there is more going on here.

I was wondering about Psionics in it (the little I played they didn't come up).

Now I'm wondering if it really does have no pizza.

Usually it is left out. It's space magic. For character generation, it almost always leaves the psion too weak. The official setting has some sort of uncomfortable associations with there being "psionic suppressions" in the history, mostly to rid itself of the rules. They felt like they were tacked on at the end though.

Mostly this. They use a point system and Psion ability score. Characters usually can be telepath, telekinesis, etc.. I find it better for story telling than for actual PCs. Nobody has asked, or at least pushed the issue. If somebody ever randomly gets latent Psion ability in chargen tho, i'll roll with it.

In my far too long of playing it, basically everyone has been disappointed with the result, so it's not a system I would really offer. Conversely, everyone I know from using 5e Esper Genesis, has said it is over powered. There is a middle ground somewhere I am sure. Maybe M-Space, or Ultramodern 5e, I don't know.

At some point, you guys need to consider posting in the original thread or starting a second one.

I ... thought I was in that primary thread.
Did I leave an extra window open on my screen, or something?

This is the only thread.

All other threads are an illusion, designed to anger your blood and yoke you to the wheel of argument and distract you from this, the one true thread.

At some point folks should just start posting the following phrase:

"I'm now going to make this thread all about me."

It would help clarify where the thread is going for the next 20 pages.

Baloney: I've seen you in the other threads too and you are not just a ghost over there. (Real ghosts do not eat pizza.)

Would the thread better if we @'d in someone who really likes Traveller?

I like Traveller.

As a Traveller player from 40-ish years ago, I was happy to see that they did a pretty good job of using realistic vectored thrust in "The Expanse."
