I've actually heard Tolien was prejudiced because he only used European mythology. Except that doesn't make sense because he was using European mythology. It wouldn't have been as fgood if he tried everything else. The straight sword was the kind used by the people he based ME on. The scimitar just wasn't. He probably wanted the orcs and other enemies to be different.
