I see a lot of good points on both sides, and agree with parts of both. I am for the most part though glad we can't use guns on humans. Skeletons and Tormenta guys look enough not like humans that those are fine. Anyway, technically they only used to be human. It would add a little much realism yes. Which, I suppose is why, like others have said, there's no hand to hand combat. I'd say leave it as is. (Though I would love to see a weapon added at level 40. Off topic yeah I know lol.)
I don't agree with the people who say a game can't be sued. That's not entirely true. No, they can't bring a criminal suit against them. But so far as I know there's no reason someone couldn't file civil suit. Also, while it's not a video game but a movie, I'm sure there are those of you on here who remember the Matrix Defense? Years back someone committed a crime, and used the defense the Matrix made them do it. Yeah, there's a difference between a game and a movie. But I can guarantee there are people at Disney who remember that. I think they are covering bases by not letting us shoot people.
Speaking personally I say leave well enough alone. In the long range of the game, the ability to shoot or not is minor. Anyway, if they have to develop shooting humans into the game then they'd probably want to do reworking of quests and such to fit that, particularly the pistol quests. Something tells me they do not want to add to the pistol quest, Defeat 8 Navy Soldiers using a pistol. Besides, any development on this would take away from whatever they are currently planning. I would far rather see a story chapter than the ability to shoot Navy and Eitc. (No, it wouldn't take near as long to do the later, but that's just how I feel.)
