I would put on my robe and wizard hat and play Magicka dressed like that. Believe me, I already have the robe and the hat in my closet (I've made them myself and worn them in cosplay). This thought hit me as I was entering yet another Magicka giveaway (I've been trying to win that game for so long :<). I think it would really enhance the playing experience and get me in the mood for some spellcasting and wizardry. And besides, wizards are freaking AWESOME!! Who wouldn't want to go around dressed like one??

So I was wondering if there's anyone else who thinks it would be cool to play Magicka dressed as a wizard yourself?? Or better still, if there's anyone who has already done it?? There must be someone who has ideas as weird as the ones I have :D.

EDIT: I've finally gotten my own copy of Magicka!! Since this community has been so generous towards me, I will post a pic of my robe and wizard hat, as requested. I have also made a giveaway for the community (but it's over now). So here's the pic. It's a pic of my Apprentice cosplay from Dungeon Defenders. Please forgive me because the pic isn't all that good. I took it in my apartment and didn't have time to set up any better background, and I was alone at home so I had a really hard time trying to set the camera correctly :(. So from now on, I'll be playing Magicka dressed like that :D

Yeah, I've had issues trying to play it also. Though for me it is mostly based around some pretty terrible input lag that makes casting spells take forever (not great in a combat situation). :/

Why would you play it dressed as a wizard? Magicka has nothing to do with wizards. Just find a good 60's army outfit. Or perhaps a Day of the Tentacle costume.

Thats kinda rude calling me a scammer while I'm being generous enough to give you the game. I could also give u the game for free without u taking the pic but then every1 will know you as the begger in steamgifts like all the others lol. Why would i scam you for something like this and when I have over 200 reps of trading?

Nevertheless, the offer still stands.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, I'm just trying to be careful. I just got a copy of Magicka, so I can post the picture nevertheless. But you will have to wait for tomorrow, because I'm just about to go to bed, but I promise to post the picture after 9-10 hours from now.

Thats epic man. how long did it take you to make it xD.
Yes, I shall give you the tradable Toki Tori because I must keep my word now and I already have the game so its just been sitting in my inventory :P. Hope you accepted my friend invite. Ill trade you when I get back from college, so in about 5 hrs.

Edit: What are you going to make next if you are going to do another one?

I'm glad to have you as a friend :). That costume took me about three weeks of non-stop working, by which I mean I spend 8-10 hours every day making it. I'm still working on a staff to add to the costume, and I might post a better picture of the complete costume (robe, hat and staff) in a couple of days if I can find a good background and have a friend with me to take the picture.

If you're really willing to give me your Toki Tori, I'll gratefully accept your gift. I'll also be online in Steam in a couple of hours, so see you then!!

I almost forgot. As for the next costume, I really haven't decided yet. Although I have been wanting to make a Bowser costume from Mario series for a long time :D. But a costume like that would take months to make, so I'm not sure if I'm going to make it yet.

I agree with the people in this thread that said the game is fun with friends; even solo it's pretty entertaining, though not as much as with others. The bugs that everyone is bitching about I personally have not experienced, but I have heard about them when Magicka was first released. I assume by the time I started playing the game they all got fixed.

I've edited the starting post to mention I already have the game. I truly appreciate your generosity, but you needn't have made any special giveaways for me. The purpose of this thread was not to urge people to make more Magicka giveaways, I just wanted to tell you all about something I have dreamed of. Nevertheless, I'm really grateful that the SG community has helped me realize this dream!!

Well I had the hat covering my face on purpose because it's how Apprentice wears his hat in DunDef. But I can tilt the hat so I can see perfectly well from under it. It might seem like I wouldn't see anything under such a big hat, but since the brim is so wide, I can see surprisingly well by tilting my head back a little.

Congrats on getting your Magicka copy! And such a cute cosplay too, way to submerge yourself into Magicka's atmosphere. At first I read the pic description as "It's a pic of my apprentice", so I thought maybe it's the OP's little sister or something, and then I realized it's actually you. :') The fun moments of being sleepy.

I still have no clue what I was supposed to do. I'm really bad at finding these hidden giveaways :(.

I'm just curious to know what I was supposed to do, since I couldn't figure it out myself.

So be it. The link to the giveaway was hidden in the page source (viewable by right clicking and selecting 'View Page Source' or whatever the equivalent option is in your browser) of my first comment in this thread:

"Wizards?! In my view sourcerers are far superior."

The section of text in bold and italics reads 'view source', telling you where to look if you notice the odd formatting and deliberate misspelling of sorcerer.

Links can be hidden in the source code of comments by creating a link with no text to display it, like so:

Thanks a lot for revealing me your secrets!! I'm still a little confused about these hidden giveaways, and I'm not sure if I fully understood your explanation. I'm usually browsing with Safari and I'm not sure where I can find this 'view source' option. Still, I think I'm slowly starting to understand these hidden giveaways, so maybe one day I'll be able to find one on my own :)

Your giveaway was sure well hidden, congrats for that.

From a little experimenting I've found that Safari is perhaps not the best browser to use for this type of puzzle. You can view the source by right clicking on the background of the page and selecting 'View Source' from the menu that appears, but this will give you the source code for the entire page in a giant mess that would be difficult to look through, unless you used ctrl+F to search for some text in my comment for example.

In Firefox you can highlight some text on the page, right click it and select 'View Selection Source' which will only display the source for the section highlighted and is far easier to find things in.

I never begged for the game. In this thread I just stated what I would do if I SOMEHOW got this game. I never said anyone should give it to me. These people just offered to give it to me because of their own generosity, and for that I'm truly thankful.

She didn't beg at all, I had a spare copy of the collection and extra DLC that I planned to give away anyway. From my recent giveaways I've found a lot of people to be unappreciative though. So I felt I'd like to give something to someone who I know will appreciate it.

I offered her the game, she didn't beg.

I can assure you, it really is me. I'm a really short person (I'm about 155 cm in height), and I think wearing that huge hat makes me look even smaller. And so you know, I am over 18 years old. I know I'm really short for my age :(
