I think this game needs a long polearm scythe

I agree. What we have now are more like fighting pickaxes.

Meh, scythes are more of a gimmick, than an efficient weapon.

There are many games that show that scythes CAN be efficent weapons, games like bloodborne or soul calibur.

Yes, there are many games that show that they can, but that doesn't mean that they are. The two you mentioned aren't exactly the most realistic now, are they. I'll admit, Warframe isn't too hyper realism jam-screen etcetera, but it still retains some logic. A cool long scythe would be good, but as is, scythes are still on the low end for melee usefulness. When we successfully bribe DE into giving us melee charge 2.0, then we'll see.

Well warframe has a LOT of content based on "rule of cool", and the way the scythe works currently is more ineffective then real scythes would be.

In combat, the bladed end probably wouldn't be usable anyways, but eh. They added it because of high demand for them and people think they look cool.

 

I think the ones we have so far look like pickaxes or anchors.
