Will there be usuable swords in Destiny?
The Fallen obviously use swords, but can Guardians wield them too?
Bungie has had much experience with this majestic murder machine, from their steel arsenals in Myth to the burning plasma swords of Halo. Will Destiny be void of such a dynamic in melee, or will it stick to its fists, knives, and "space magic push attack?"
Discuss.
EDIT: Grammar, indubitably

After some thought, i have a strong feeling that swords got cut from the game, for 4 reasons. Reason 1) The games reliance on the 3 ammo system. PvP is basically based around an ammo hierarchy. Swords don't use ammo. Halo's energy sword had energy, but it couldn't be refilled. Not to mention they could only feasibly be special weapons, putting them in direct competition with the shotgun. Reason 2) This is my weakest reason, but its a reason none the less. It would kind of be redundant with the hunters bladedancer skill. However the same could be said about hand canons and Golden Gun. Reason 3) Deej got in trouble for mentioning swords Reason 4) Each class has a very specific and upgradable melee attack
