Why do the Sardaukar have anime swords?

This Shiro's Dune I guess.

Baffling oversight. Snip.

Dune Spice Wars isn't a realistic war simulator. So to argue that the Sardaukar are wielding some made-up weapon in a fictional universe, not conforming to the same specifications of real weapons is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HILARIOUS!

Are you also this fun while explaining lightsabers? Oh please tell me how lightsabers aren't realistic at all, all the way down to the mathematics.

More importantly. Why are Sardaukar not purple?

Their swords are larger for visibility, same with the weapons of all of the other units in the game.

That is indeed Shiro's Dune.

Should of made them light sabers for better visibility just sayin;

We're not risking the wrath of Disney's army of lawyers.

without making them too cartoony though.

Have you seen this game before? It has a very heavily stylized ("cartoony") look in all areas. That's an artistic choice, not a negative.

"Artistic" is a very euphemistic description of what it is.
