What it will take for me to purchase Dom III

J and K have done a lot in supporting the game - I'm not saying they're guilty of that. But I can see how people are frustrated and disappointed in never getting a viable single player game out of their purchase.

I fail to see how people didn't get a viable single player game. The game functions properly, and the AI will beat a new player most of the time. What I've seen so far is complaints that the AI is inferior to a human player and can't give a human a challenge without cheating. That's no surprise since there is no single stretegy game more complicated than Chess where that statement isn't true. I can't think of any complex strategy game where the AI isn't a pushover without massive cheating once the player has learned the game rules.

As an aside, even if you only played the single player game for 20 hours you got more than your money's worth out of the game considering that any non-strategy game has about that much actual gameplay.
