Oscare's main weapons are bows and guns, and if there's gunblades, the possibility of rifles (I'd say bolt-action, not semi-automatic) and muskets is definitely possible. There are also several references to pistols being in the game, the best one is Merylwyb who flatly uses flintlock pistols.
So yeah, they're definitely there. And it's surprising to see that not a lot of people use guns and I would like to see more gunners about! Someone's gotta give Oscare SOME competition!
However, on the subject of this -- I've been pondering. What are the possibility of flamethrowers and grenade launchers? Grenade launchers is kind of a stretch in my mind, but I feel like it might work within the proper context, as there ARE grenades in Eorzea (several quests flatly give you them to complete the quest). And flamethrower was kind of a cool idea. Fire shards/crystals/clusters are involved, so if you connect the gun to the shard in some sort of aetherical manner, wouldn't it be within possibility? Normal flamethrowers use gas, but you know. This is a fantasy game, there are different alternatives and resources.
Any input on this?
