Spells and Magic : V - Skyrim

I'd like there to be some kind of bonus or incentive for people not to have their weapons unsheathed, because otherwise there is no reason to play a pure mage. Maybe have more powerful spells have to be casted with no weapon out or have it so there are like two handed spells or something. Any ideas or is this just stupid idea?

Yeah, that's a good way of doing it. The powerful ones should require two hands or a staff/wand to channel them. I'd also say that people might want to cast with empty hands if the animations look better when doing that instead of doing it with the weapon in hand.

Yeah that would work well, I also like how in the game in the video that your hands change depending on the spell chosen, that's a small but nice feature imo.

For crying out loud, I do not want to be forced to join the Mage's guild to enchant things. I'm sure that in each province there should be more than one place to enchant your things.
