Anyone find ai empires to be very boring?
Titles, ai empires can classified into three types:
Friendly one, so you spend influence to form pacts with them.
Hostile one, so you either defend or kill them, rival you for no reason other than they are opposite of your ethics.
Isolationist, them either don't give a damn about you or just too far away to even matters at all.
All of them are so boring if you think about it, there really isn't any interesting interaction with the ai aside from the "black and white" diplomacy.
