yea most developers are hacks whose only talent is copying tolkien and gygax, we knowMy guess is that developers shy away from guns in fantasy because it dosen't fit the cliches that represent fantasy to most poeple.
When you think of guns, it naturally reminds people of the modern world and the themes that go with that. Guns turn into trench warfare, handgranades and industrial mass slaughter.
This is usually at odds with the themes you are trying to portray in, for example, a medieval derivative fantasy adventure.
Source?
There's some Arte documentaries if you can understand German or French, i'm not searching for a link and it's probably easy enough to get a good source to confirm they were nomads and never held a city for long.
Mongols never having an empire is news to me. All sources I know of talk about a Mongol Empire and Karakorum is recognized as its capital (although it was established as such by Genghis' successor, Ogedei).There's some Arte documentaries if you can understand German or French, i'm not searching for a link and it's probably easy enough to get a good source to confirm they were nomads and never held a city for long.

The ultimate weapon would obviously be a gun that fires katanas, which itself can be used as a katana. I guess it'd have to be belt fed, a mag that could hold enough katanas would be impractical. Plus, you obviously want to show off all those shiny katanas.
For urban warfare a shortened carbine version that fires wakazashis would be more practical.
Hating katanas is as much of a meme as jerking them off. Yes, they were fragile but they were also very sharp. There are way worse weapons in history with far more limited applications.Because swordsman beat all the people with guns. Katanas can cut bullets, you know.![]()

Dude they fold the metal like 100 times, it's harder than the surface of the sun and can cut through almost any liquid known to man. If you look directly into the center of the blade, you can see it's exactly in the middle. And if you fold something 100 times that's like... a zillion layers of sword. A frigging ZILLION! OF SWORD!!!But bullets can cut katanas too.

Katanas are FOLDED METAL bro you have no idea
Problem with this approach is, that gun would be only used at beginning salvo, if your roll bad and not hit enemy, you switch to crossbow or bow.
thats a fuggin wand me boyOne cool idea I always had for guns in a fantasy setting is "wizard locks" as an alternative to matchlock, flintlock, percussion lock etc.
Only wizards can use it because there's no mechanism to ignite the powder... wizards use a spark spell to ignite it and go pew, the gun is completely useless to anyone else.
