Mage and wizard are two different classes

Mages cast magic, wizards cast spells
Thieves are thieves, rogues are pirates
Healers are healers, priests are healers with religious connotation

Eli Miller
>game has mage, wizard, sorcerer, witch, warlock, summoner, shamen, and x-mancers
>no magician
David Hughes
Magician is a term used to describe people who do magic tricks, so I think RPGs try to avoid the term for the most part to avoid confusion.

Thieves steal shit, rogues kill shit. Wizards use magic to buff/manipulate, Mages blow shit up. Healers recover physical wounds, Priests inflict mental wounds.

>Survivalist, Ranger, and Beastmaster are all haphazardly smooshed into a single class called "Hunter"
Grayson Ward
thats an illusionist
Josiah Peterson
>game has puppeteer
Tyler Edwards
Technically speaking you're right. But if you call an RPG character a "magician" chances are the brainlet audience is going to think of Criss Angel or David Blaine. Better to just avoid the term and preserve the player's immersion.
Brayden Peterson
Idk about the others but a mage doesn’t necessarily have the scholarly theme like a wizard
Levi Bailey
>Thief and Rogue are two different classes
One steals for himself and the other steals and redistributes like Robin Hood. What's so hard to get?

>bard class
>but no musician, poet, minstrel, songstress, piper, drummer, lutenist or songsmith classes
Luis Torres
I never saw a rogue giving free stuff.
Robert Rodriguez
Thief = pro at stealing stuff
Rogue = pretty good at sneaking around and stealing, but not as good at stealing as a thief is
Take a thief with you if you want to steal from a shop while you're still in it. Take a rogue if you want someone to sneak in and steal something that's not behind a master lock.
