Have been pondering the magic system within my story and was seeking advice online. I think what is said on this video is really interesting. It makes me wonder if the magic system in my story is a hard magic system or a soft magic. Pretty sure it's a soft magic system but I still think the rules need refining to ensure it makes sense and is consistent throughout the story.
My system mirrors what you would find in common role playing games (skill trees where you need low level, prerequisite spells before you can learn more powerful ones). This was an active choice and is an actual comparison made by the main character. But I think I need to take a look at all the chapters that include magic and ensure they're all consistent.
