The spell book sounds lame since mages don't need one to cast spells.

Thought it looked cool. I love the whole trailer so far, have some screenshots from it that show some really nice detail. Game Looks Awesome!

What?! You are telling me that you are against the idea of having a magical floating fire book that you go all Merlin over. Beyond that think of the pure defensive bonuses from such a item.

That was a iron bark hard cover 1st edition fire spell book with a Bronto leather casing and Halla horn engravings and I need not tell you that you would be hard pressed to find a shield capable of stopping sword slashes, axe cleaves and arrow shots as well as this pure magnificence of literature.

This is a must have for mages all over Thedas from dark and broody apostates to vibrant Maker worshippers you need not look any further Mister Magics Floating Grimoire Collection.

*ink and feather not included.

Since there's a lot of comparison to Arthur legend. Sure, but I better have a spell to float dishes and have them wash themselves. In reality it doesn't bother me that much. Been working all night and almost time to get off.The floating book was a little surprising though.

 Whenever I see that sort of spell-casting I get reminded of this:

I like it when magic is cast swift, and without any needless objects.

A flying book...
It looks cool, no idding but...
Here all my hopes for more realistic combat go away. At least it's still better than DA2's acrobatics

A hovering book is more jarring than summoning giant rocks from the sky?

Those hopes didn't go away when a guy with a shield blocked hits that made walls fall and iron gates crush? 

[Tarek]

[Tarek]

[Cheylus]

It's only used by Venatori Conjurers, it's not for your actual PC mage.

In-Universe it is possible to cast magic. But as long as I know they still haven't discovered levitation yet. The only amge who used such an ability was Velanna.

That is not a spell book. Mages are so bad ass in this game they can cast spells while reading war and peace at the same time.

Stonefist lifts up a boulder, holds it and then sends it flying. Force mages have telekenisis. It is not a leap to be able to levitate a book.

It was confirmed to be an enemy, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. It won't likely affect our inquisitor. ^.^

This is the BSN worry is part of the infrastructure around here.

Dragon Age: Origins - "Why are mages forced to staves for ideal casting?"
Dragon Age 2 - "Why are mages limited to staves, Hawke should be attacked for carrying one"
Dragon Age: Inquistion Pre-Alpha - "Why is a mage using a book?, thats dumb"

[The Hierophant]

Curses! There goes my dreams of roleplaying a senile mage who reads from spellbooks to counteract his crappy memorization skills.

Now watch how all 3 get fixed all at once:

Staves become non-magical melee weapons that warriors can use as well, while Mages have an option to use regular weapons. 

Tadda! All of these complaints are essentially one. 

Edit: Oh and of course there is no place for spell books.

There is a difference between levitating a book, reading and casting spells at the same time. Like, badass but since when can they do it?
Lifting up a rock and throwing it at the opponent is a quite simple thing

[MisterJB]

I'm more upset by the fact mages can still teleport.
Stop breaking the cardinal rules of magic, damn it.

[Milan92]

The mage with the book immediately reminded me of a character from Yu-Gi-Oh. Hence forth, I will not be able to take this book seriously anymore.

Spell-books might be awesome:
