They can already do what you said. But how would you convert all of their Telepathic skills? You'd have to have seperate thoughts for all creatures, they can speak with plants using telepathy as well. Thoughts for all of the trees in the forest, too? Ouch.
Then there are all of their Clairsentient powers, it'd require an extra CD just for all of the information which they could gain using that. Their shapeshifting Psychometabolic abilities would also be severely limited, instead of an almost infinite amount of choices they'd be narrowed down to 10 or such.
Psionics could NOT be implemented. It'd take an entire DVD or such just for everything that they could do.
In response to Yorick: What sort of psionic abilities were availiable? I severely doubt that more than a quarter of all of the 2nd ed powers could be implemented.

No offense, but you're getting a little carried away with all this Psionics stuff, Neb. [img]smile.gif[/img]
You want EVERY aspect of Psionics to be covered...but what about the rest of the classes? They aren't totally covered either.
Besides, I think you'd be disappointed even if they did add Psionics, because it would have to be toned down for balancing issues, and some aspects of the class would have to be left out; there is simply too much to cover it all.
