I can accept soft magic if they would explain HOW they do anything. I mean, in old DnD books the descriptions for many priest/cleric spells were ok, you're beseeching a god to do something

But wizards? What... do you just, like, THINK hard and it works?

To put it another way: If you were on the Holodeck playing as a wizard, how would the HOLODECK know what do to?
It doesn't matter, it's magic. As long as you don't take people out of the story with the characters using magic to solve all their problems or have a ridiculous deus ex machina they will still suspend their disbelief.
