What do you think about the idea of melee weapons in destiny?
Yay? Nay? What the hay?
I say yay, I think swords as a secondary weapons could work. They could serve as upgrades to the traditional melee attack, but work in different ways.
Think for example, a massive war blade. Capable of insane damage and has the ability to stagger an enemy. But this come with the cost of laughably slow swing speeds, leaving you wide open for attack should you miss.
Or maybe a pair of short swords for you to dual wield. Which would be able to swing and strike at lightning fast speeds. or to swing in arcs, creating whirlwinds around yourself. While only doing minimal damage, making it useful for stunning or chipping away at several enemies health at once but little else.
And perhaps a blade composed of pure energy, (or pure light in this case) that can be charged up and used in a forward dashing motion. However it could only be used so many times before having to shut down and recharge.
So what do you think of the idea of swords in destiny?
And if you like it, what kinds of swords can you dream up... or rather what kinds of existing swords do you wanna see spinoffs of in the game?
