The Magician's Burden

I think I know what the burden is - it is being woke. The story is... dumb? I get it that you choose a part-time job, but twice? First time I did it I thought the game was broken and I restarted. You're a mage - that works THREE extra part-time jobs for a living. Is this supposed to be some sort of social commentary on modern economic issues? But why would literal village idiots have their one mage (in a world where bloodthirsty, malicious demons lurk) work three part time jobs (like clerking, being a guard or a farmhand) waste their time like this, instead, I don't know, learning magic to defend against demons? The bully posse plot is borderline retarded. For a strong, independent black woman with a mohawk, the vice-captain of the guard is surprisingly incompetent if they allow three bullies to terrorize a single villager every day of their life. This is a village, right? Everybody sees this, and no-one reacts. Just have the mayor resign and just kneel before three bullies, while having actual guardsmen answering to him. And boy, is the game woke. Strong black female warrior with a mohawk, check. Shy black healer boy who you can gay romance, check. Mysterious and cool bald dark…

Very meh. wasn't put together well at all (thought the reviews were harsh, turns out no, they're pretty spot on)

The cat... the cat, man... this game traumatized me.

loved it

Good enough. But I liked more before they changed the ending. I thought that the update would add a resolution to the cliffhanger, not remove it entirely....

Can`t say I hate this game don`t get whats with all the bad reviews. Though personally a second installment would make it better. Overall game
