1984 Psionics Guide (#972)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
# Description

The Psionics Guidebook is straight up outdated, wrong about a metric
shitton of things, and I actually have zero intention of updating it to
have correct information, because Psionics is completely intended to be
a "Find Out In Game" kind of thing. I'm actually pissed off by how much
the guide misleads people, and getting nonstop questions about why
Psionics doesn't work the way the guidebook says it works. So this PR
removes the Psionics guidebook entry outright. You're welcome.

**FIND OUT IN GAME. PSIONICS IS ENTIRELY INTENDED TO BE VAGUE. YOU ARE
NOT SUPPOSED TO GET STRAIGHT ANSWERS FROM ANYTHING. YES THE POPUP TEXT
IS VAGUE. I'M NOT GOING TO HOLD YOUR HAND. FIGURE OUT WHAT THINGS MEAN
BY CONTEXT CLUES, OR JUST GUESS. YOUR BEST GUESS IS BETTER THAN ASKING
IN AHELP ABOUT EVERYTHING.**

# Changelog

:cl:
- remove: Removed the Psionics Guidebook. It was straight up wrong about
most things, and is not ever going to be updated to match new Psionics
Content. You are fully intended to "FIND OUT IN GAME" how things work
through guessing, trial and error, and just pure happenstance.
Experiment with shit. The popups are intentionally vague. You're
supposed to think about what they mean. Stop asking admins in Ahelps
what the vague text means.
