I will use melee and bow and arrows, but i will try some spells to see what they look like and play around but im not gonna work on any magic in the game its all about melee bow and arrow.
Dont really need magic when you got Bow and Arrows for long range. |

And what about magical arrows, elemental damage, returnig arrow (so, unlimited arrows) and that kind of things? A little magic adds a lot of flavor to your mundane warrior!

Well yeah of course  i like Magical Weapons like a Sword that is on fire but for bows and arrows i like to use Poison Arrows and Fire Arrows not a fan of anything else enchanted unless it looks nice.
I dont like stuff that is magically enchanted and look really stupid like some glowing bland single color looks like some one did it with crayons 
Will annoying me walking around and you're stuff is always glowing or crap always flying off of it.
I like fire arrows alot but not magically enchanted i mean using natural fire arrows and poison those are nice.
If you played Castlevania Symphony of the Night there was 3 magic weapons in the game Fire, Thunder and Ice When you used the weapon like attacked you could see the blade and the effect of the element like you could see the fire on the sword and the ice and the thunder etc and each one had a move you press down forward attack and they would do this cool little element attack stuff like that is cool i like when the magic weapon looks like fire for example maybe the handle looks redish red dark red like fire and has red jewels etc but isnt glowing like fire but when you attack it looks like fire know what i mean? |

As I said before everything depends of the player and the game's magic :if the mage doesn't know a good spell and the warrior is a veteran (in other words a "tank"), he's dead. But what could he have done if the game's most powerful spell could barely kill a rat, and the game's armor and weapon could bring dragons down with a single blow.
Hey warriors! What type would you choose if the best armor of the game is made of leather and the best sword is made of half polished wood, and magic is able to bring mountains down? 
You have no "love" for "character type", you only search and play the most powerful (nearly always not as powerful as you think) combination character you could get your hands on, and that is in most games the warrior type! With the conditions above you'd choose mage type!
Magic lovers always stick to mage characters even if the game’s magic doesn’t worth a thing …
Mages start weak, yes indeed very weak, but as they gain power they can blow armies of warriors. Besides where is the will, where is the challenge in playing a strong character from the beginning till the end? No challenges (maybe a few), no self satisfaction! A mage player will spend hours building a wizard learning spells, practicing to face a challenge, and defeating even a small one is most satisfactory! 
There's no real fun in rushing bashing slashing, elder scrolls games are not of that sort! I don't want to get this any longer, so don't make me do it  !

You obviously dont know what you're talking about theres nothing more fun then slashing enemies with a sword hearing weapons bang against each other and actually fighting mages all they do is stay far away launch some spells then use a mana potion.
I carefully pick my character most games they have the weak but fast character the all around character and the strong but very slow character i'd pick the middle.
Mages blowing away tons of Warriors? please we have way more health and i think you're forgetting we can also use ranged weapons and a Warrior is alot more faster and stronger then a Mage and we can also do special moves a mage is running around shooting fireballs i just roll and hit him with a few flame arrows and he goes down like a girl  |

Hey what about invisibility and an aw struck warrior firing arrows to whatever thing making noise  , then a meteor smashes his helmet protected head  . Have you ever fought a "real" wizard?? Nop? Well I hope you meet one soon! 
Have you watched The Lord of the Rings? What do you think of Saruman what of Gandalf? Mages all of them powerful mountain shaking energies! In Fangorn Forest, Gandalf deflects the arrow, the axe and the sword of Aragorn burns his hand! What could the most powerful warrior do? Barely move a boulder 1mm? 
You talk about fire arrows, what about a fire shield and deflect arrow spell?? I never get bored paralyzing warrior then hitting them with a hand stick   ... Imagine a fantasy world without magic... Its empty man, it's empty without it...
