This is only my opinion, and it may be very idiosyncratic, but full casters are not kinetic enough for me. They don’t do enough. They stand around, chant words, wiggle fingers, and something amazing happens. There’s no swinging your sword in a brilliant arc, no narrowing your focus just to the target before you loose, no feel of the tumblers as you pick it while monsters are nearby, no recitation of a powerful poem that leaves your enemies enthralled. It’s just standing around, casting a spell, and magic happens.
