Wizard with gun11/30/2023 ![]() Making things worse, gunmancers have been adventuring and raiding the ruins of fallen civilizations in hopes of finding more potent reagents for their bullets." "Gunmancy," says Morgan, "was invented recently as a 'safer' way of controlling and channeling magic, but gunmancers are still loathed throughout the broken portions of the world. So, wizards started packing heat and "gunmancy" was born. In the realm of Wizard with a Gun, a magical cataclysm has destroyed parts of the world, and even hundreds of years later people still don't trust magic or wizards much. Morgan explained some of the lore and backstory of the unusual world and Western-style showdowns we see in the trailer. The trailer shown at E3 was half cinematic and half gameplay, and before you ask, here's the excellent song backing the trailer: It's Breath and Bone by Ryan Ike, who also composed music for Where the Water Tastes Like Wine and West of Loathing. ![]() What’s fun is playing by the rules, and this wizard needs to start doing that, STAT.In Wizard with a Gun, players will battle creatures in randomized overworld biomes, gather resources, and concoct spells in bullet form back at their base. Not saying we’re experts on this stuff, but it seems pretty obvious that wizards shouldn’t be allowed to have guns. Here’s hoping he comes to his senses and gets rid of the gun, or, if not that, the police come and take him to jail. So where does he think he gets off? Again, this must be in violation of some warlock oath. So not sure where this guy got the idea that it’s okay for him to have one. And, if you factor in the likelihood that the wizard could very easily put a spell on the bullets and supercharge them so that they can travel for hundreds of miles or turn into bombs or something, there’s really no limit on the destruction he’s capable of.īesides, none of the famous wizards from popular culture that we know and love have ever had a gun. But this wizard has a gun AND a wand, giving him a huge edge over not only regular people but also his fellow sorcerers. ![]() It’d be a bit quirky for sure, but ultimately not a big deal. Now, it’d be one thing if the wizard was just going to use his pistol as a wand to shoot spells. Even if it’s legal, it absolutely shouldn’t be. Plus, they basically already have control over life and death, so the fact that this wizard is just out and about holding both a wand and a pistol is beyond unfair, as no guy should have that much power. To begin with, wizards already have a major advantage over regular people because their knowledge of spells and other forms of devilry allows them to do pretty much whatever they want all the time-and certainly having a gun tips the scales even more in their favor. Never do guns factor into archetypical depictions of wizards, presumably because it’d look weird and unnatural for them to pack heat, as is clearly evidenced by this magical oddball here, whose gun-toting demeanor feels so jarring and wrong that you’d assume it must be in violation of some unspoken rule or warlock oath. ![]() For several hours now, the wizard has been waving his gun around and making “ pew pew pew! ” sounds, brazenly defying society’s widely agreed-upon understanding of wizards as spooky, bearded grandpas armed only with small wooden wands that are used for shooting magic spells and turning various objects into frogs. ![]()
