Is it just me or do we get access to magic WAY to late? I understand they want to build the game like a pyramid in content, but this feels like the wrong way to do it. You could have various tiers of magic and still have it feel like a pyramid.

Why would I completely change my playtime so late in the experience after working to lvl up my chosen melee skills?

I really want to use magic, but it seems so counter intuitive to switch playstyles after getting so far.

Am I the only one who feels like this?

Is this something that we can change?

Edit: this turned out to be alot more controversial then I had originally thought.

Many of you seem to agree with me, and just as many of you seem to think im wrong.

The only thing I have to say about that is, I want to play as a mage earlier in the game, like say from black forest or the swamp. What wrong with that?

I'm not asking to get fireball or summon skeleton in the black forest. I'm asking for lower tiered magic balanced for the area you recieve it in. Utility and buff magic would be awesome additions as well.
