I want to feel like a bad-ass wizard

tissek@sopuli.xyz to Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works – 97 points –

Having come across videos of that new Dragon Age game and its (by the look of it) cool looking combat I've gotten the urge for something similar. Action RPG of some kind, being able to rock on as a wizard and blast spells all day. Some tactical element to spell slinging and comboing would be nice.

Love me some recommendations!

It is mayor jank but Dragons Dogma was the closest to feeling like a mage I've ever experienced. There are no cool downs in the game but channeling spells takes some time and upholding a continuous spell drains your stamina. In this setting the art of a mage was reading the battle and estimating how much space you have to channel spells, several of which can easily break the encounter wide open.

Edited since neither my English nor my autocorrect were working as intended.

Am I just not awake yet or is this incomprehensible

Yeah that's a horrible sentence my bad. You're not the only one who's not fully awake.

I mean you only have to change a few words to figure out what they intended to write so I'd say not awake fully?

"In this setting the art of the mage was reading the battle and estimating how much space you need to channel each spell"

At least that is how I read it

Thank you, but now that I'm more awake I'd have to disagree with you there. You did some magic reading that.
