Well, from a fan perspective, I've got the following to say: If you got to RPGNOW you see there are 3 comments for the book. In one of the 5 star comments, the first paragraph is:
Psionic Companion >>This book has triggered more controversy than the Book of Vile Darkness but none of those threads have even mentioned the actual content of the book, only condemning it for not being ISO2000 compliant. I'm sure many are looking at all of this and asking the same question; "But is it any good?" Yes, it is!<< It will indeed sell more. It does make one curious as well about the book. I've seen the book. I feel ripped off regarding my purchase. I doubt RPG NOW will give me a refund, but hey, that's the breaks. However, while I bought the PDF I am glad I did in a way. I probably won't be buying more from the same people again. I can say now it's not the quality that I've come to appreciate from very talented publishers. The fact that they don't know the licenses or understand them is just sad. So, they have this one initial boost. Big deal. See where they are with the next one. I bet its not very good based on the work I saw in this one. The beautiful thing about the OGL is that it gives people a chance to prove themselves.... these people have proven something about themselves beyond a doubt... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wil Upchurch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 7:30 PM Subject: Re: [Ogf-l] Is this possible? > And the Orog has one too few skill points....damn orogs.
