See, but what I'm getting at is that you KNOW at least what those ins are supposed like so it bothers you. That's ok, I suppose. I understand that now. For someone like me who has absolutely no idea what they're supposed to look like, or in comparison to something, they just look badass. Again, I think Bungie wasn't really going for realism. I think the guns were obviously inspired from real guns but I don't see anywhere Bungie claiming that they will make their guns as realistically as possible. With creative freedom, you're allowed to do the silliest, nonsense weapons (or whatever) if you want. Like Cloud Strife's sword. It's huge!! No one would ever be able to single-handedly carry that thing around and swing it as if it was just a stick. Same with Sephiroth's incredibly long katana (sorry for the nerd analogy). And I'm sure a sword aficionado out there is probably ticked off about that too. But again, they're just created like that to make them unique and their own. When I see an incredibly long katana, I think Seph (good job, Square Enix). When I see a glowing green gun that shoots thorns, I think Destiny. That's just my two cents.
