Enochian.

All a magic system needs to do is explain why characters can't just magic all their problems away, anything more is masturbation.

some people are casters. they learn spells from books and spend mana points on them, which they replenish by waiting, sleeping, or chugging potions. since they can create food, water, clothing, fire, shelter with magic, they are essentially disconnected from the world economy and can basically just fly into town, float above the library for the free wifi, and just shitpost all day

Characters can be well aware that magic is a thing in the world and still don't bother to use it for any reason they hold more important than that. It's like when people have a supernatural experience and yet remain being materialist because they just don't like the idea, and so they draw the line in the sand that doesn't let magic experiences arise in the experience, and fix them sternly in that point, so everything get back to the usual. The only explanation it's just:
>They just don't want to
The rest it's window dressing. Really, all motivation it's simply about wanting or not, to go for one experience to the next, and anything less direct than that it's just an story about this simplicity.

Prince of Nothing / Second Apocalypse. I like the idea that different metaphysics and semantics shapes the sort of magic used, even if it isn't that developed.
