I picked up Dragonwilds to check it out and the rune magic turned me off pretty hard when I went to refresh my simple weapon buff and I was already out of runes! Exploring felt like a real chore (this and the runbacks ended my time with the game for good).
I simply don't click with games that require reagents for casting everything. There are already too many items that need tracking in games like this.
It's honestly a non issue. 10 rune mats make 100 runes at a vein. I spent 30 minutes in the starting area loading up and had 300+ of everything. A normal staff attack uses 1. Its incredibly cheap and is easier than how most games treat arrows.
