The thing is new magic is flashier but fundamentally does the same you did with old magic 10 winters ago. Our crystal balls and wands have gotten more capable but to the point where the average spellcaster won’t even get to make full use of them. Good thing there are independent wizards around who craft old magic style spells to this day so you can still get some use out of your old equipment. I’m using Arch Mage on an ancient ThinkOrb btw.
There’s really a archmage distro. And there i thougt you meant Source Mage.
yes, newb questions will get you slammed with “read the fucking artes magicae”, but at least there is a grimoire of information to refer to
Putting the “scroll” in “scrolling desperately through a Discord server for a post that should be pinned”
God, I love this so much.
Honestly annoying if the Akashic records just ignore a word of your query instead of just stating that there’s no match.
Also, how yhe hell does the Akashic record have no matches? Shouldn’t it at least return the query itself?
The old magic is also likely efficient because it had to be to work with the orbs at the time.
you don’t enjoy getting a spellbook and having to summon 250 gigarunes on top of it so you can even start reading it?
I miss getting a scroll from a fellow wizard which had all the runes you needed on it and it was also small enough it could fit in a pocket and if you had bad taste in music it even playered a bit of a dong as you were reading.
it even playered a bit of a dong
This was the best part about it.
The modding screne was crazier than I thought. https://youtu.be/yHJOz_y9rZE (Two drive Imperial March).
