And I can see what Arralen is saying - it doesn't bother me too much because I am capable of playing MP games, but if I wasn't, I'd be unhappy as hades : I find the SP almost totally unplayable.

Not just the lack of AI, but the things that AI does which are blatant cheating, or diplomatically insane. Example : Even on the World map with 4 players, by turn 15 the AI is hitting me with Seeking Arrows, Fires from Afar, Call of the Winds, etc. Blatant cheating which adds immeasurably to my level of irritation with the game.

Or the way the AI declares war against the human players - diplomatic insanity, as it does so regardless of strength, location, levels of threat, etc.

All of which is apparently considered acceptable because Dom2 is intended mainly as a MP game - but nothing in the game's description indicates that it's _only_ suitable for MP gaming. I can see where Arralen and players like him might be a tad bit bitter.
