As far as i know we havent seen magic being used in third person. (please correct me if im wrong)

but iv got a feeling it wont look that good since they've designed it for first person

so since i play third person most of the time, looks like i wont be using magic all that often.

how do you guys think it will look? will it affect how much you use it if you play in third person?

I think they improved 3rd person alot. In Oblivion I couldn't do ANYTHING in 3rd person except just walking around towns or going through forests ... So the spells should look good in both 3rd and 1st person.

We did see magic in Third person, in the Gameplay trailer. It was quite cool, I must said: the character crouched and punched the ground, and a wave of fire expanded from that point.

It looks fine in third person. The problem is aiming in third person.

Pretty sure I saw an aiming reticle in the demo.
