It is no secret that the guys at Paizo don't like Psionics or at least don't like the current implementation of Psionics. Psionics are a recognized part of Golarion (don't believe check out p.234-235 of the Campaign Setting). Now that the Pathfinder rules will be coming out there may be time for Paizoians to deal with the "issue" of psionics. I want this to be perfectly clear:

- There is no issue with psionics. With the proposed changes in Pathfinder Beta, psionics will not be "too good' anymore.
- People that don't like psionics in their DnD, will never like psionics in there DnD.
- With the compatibility license out, Paizo doesn't need to do anything with psionics, Dreamscarred Press can continue to be the primary source of psionic material. Most psionic fans that know of DSP already go there for there psionics anyway.

So:
- Thanks for recognizing psionics as part of the setting (even if its only a couple of pages).
- You don't need to do anything to fix them. They are fine, they are fun and probably consistent with the proposed bump in Beta.

Psionics Fan

Work on the Grand OGL Wiki Progresses. We know have sections dedicated to:

1) OGC - Alderac, Atlas, Behemoth3, Creative Mountain Games, Dragonwing Games, Fifth Element Games, Mongoose, Paizo, Reality Deviants
2) Open Systems - 4C
3) New Content - 3.P and 3.5 compatible
4) Author Profiles
5) New Reviews
6) Classic Reviews

I just finished uploading the last of Fifth Element Game's Open Game Content.
I have two products on the review pile  (Hard-Boiled Cultures, Classifieds).

What should I work on?

It is my impression that the only book from WOTC that you need to play 4e is the Player's Handbook, or alternatively $7.95 to join the insider for one month to build your own SRD.

Am I wrong? What's missing?

Over the last couple days I've added the following publishers to the 12 Days of Reviewmas:

Dec 29th - Road to Revolution #2: The Bloody Fix (by 0One Games)
Dec 30th - Shadows of Cthulhu (by Reality Deviants)

I spoke to Steve at DragonWing Games and he's sent over Ink & Quill for addition to the wiki.

Then I spoke to Iain Fyffe at Fifth Element Games and he's sent over their entire line of 3.5 products, an author profile and a company profile.

Thanks again to publishers who have been supporting the wiki with content, material for review and kind words.

Today in support of 3.5 publishers I picked up the following PDFs:

Behind the Spells: Darkness from Tricky Owlbear Publishing
The Road to Revolution: The Bloody Fix from 0one Games
Villains of Pact Magic from Radiance House

After today's little demonstration, why should we. Its not like what we do matters.

Have you heard these words in any fast food place lately, "Can you and the kids grab a table, I'll go order."

I would like to buy more 3.5 compatible material. I walked into the Dragon's Den in S'toon and the 4e stuff had this tiny display while most of the customers were milling about the d20 books looking for something to buy. I saw a lot of Paizo stuff moving, but they seem to be the only ones that didn't abandon us. Even in the PDF market there doesn't seem to be much new released.
