3 good reason? not a single one of them was a solid good reason, so please, spare me that bullshit.
reason #1 - that it's not Australia. - we're talking about battling unholy creatures from hell, not angry rabid koalas or wallabies. = good reason
reason #2 - not practical - unless it's a lightsaber boomerang, im pretty sure that the new physics engine wouldnt be very supportive of a return to user throwing weapon. shurikens, sure. javelins, fine. i could even see a heavier focus on those retarded rancid ass potions, or explosives - considering larzuk may have made it down from the mountain with cain on his back and put some of those ideas about explosives to good use. but you throw a boomerang at a monster, it either hits and get stuck in flesh/bone - hence losing the weapon until the creature dies, or hit something and drop to the ground - essentially rendering it useless until picked up again. = good reason
reason #3 - its not fitting to the game - not only would it be unrealistic and impractical, it is far too comical of an idea to be plausible for a game supposed to be dark and creepy filled with death and horror etc = good reason
reason #4 - the least supportive of my reasons, but all too true - i like nachos, therefore the boomerang could get stuck in all the melty cheese and then you'd have to sit there and pick it off or it would get moldy and smelly
i'm afraid you can't call bullshit, when these are perfectly logical and rational explanations for why this game is HIGHLY unlikely to support such a weapon.
.....if however, the point of connection between hell and earth IS australia, and the evil forces of the underworld choose to inhabit fuzzy creatures, and then turns them into undead jello monsters, and we do see a boomerang as a throwing weapon - pm me, and i shall give you all of my fg.kthxbai
