Default Re: Well, I\'m through with the game

Rich, I think it's a bit odd to complain about the game before you even try more than the tutorial.

I think SP is fun. Of course it's not as challenging or fun as MP, but I don't think you can reasonably expect it to be.

All 4X games can be beaten once you figure them out. So once you're having a bit too easy of a time, you impose self-limitations. With Dom3, usually I think the first one of these that people use is to not hire mercenaries. So if you're not seeing enough challenge, try that.

Play on a big map, against all the AI nations. The ones with crappy gods and/or scales will get eaten by the ones with appropriate gods/scales. I consistently lost against the (Normal!) AIs for the first few months I had the game, when I did this.
