[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 7965039, member: 2525"] I didn't say there was no tradition there, I said it's not ESTABLISHED tradition because of the variance. Do you honestly think the 2e Psionicists has a lot in common with the 4e Psion? I don't. And I didn't say [B]only[/B] 3e fans want a dedicated psionics class either. There is a lot more to my view on that, than simply that claim, particularly since I went to some lengths to say it as 3E-4E :) Which again reinforces in my mind that you're engaging in confirmation bias, if your response to what I wrote was not one but two strawmen. It's a pretty good sign that I was right, in my opinion. That you might be ignoring indications which run contrary to your bias. I mean heck, your entire response to me smacks of "I didn't really want people's honest opinions on this - I wanted them to agree with me that I was right." But that's not what you asked for. You asked for people's honest opinion about your view. So I gave you it. I didn't think you'd like it though. And I agree Reddit is strong with the "started with 5e" group. That was in fact what I said. What's funny is there IS a dedicated psionics flavor that I want that they're not going with. Which is Deryni psionics. So it's not like I don't have sympathy for your view. I am just calling it like I see it. I don't think your assumption that your view is held by a majority is a well-founded assumption. [/QUOTE]
