Seems to me that difficulty against the AI has a lot to do with the game situation. Maybe the difficulty simply varies a whole lot depending on who starts where, and who goes to war with whom first, etc. People saying the game is easy may have partly lucked out. That itself may be an issue of a different kind, though.

I haven't played enough Doms 2 yet to really have an opinion yet. Personal play style has a lot to do with it, though. I've been playing Doms 1 single-player and having all challenging games against the AI, but I also tend to play to have fun rather than to find super-powerful strategies. If I were just trying to find uber-techniques to maximize my progress, I expect I could, but I'd rather play it as a pseudo-RPG.
