Exactly. Modding is the key. The SEIV AI was basically useless in the stock game but actually fun with the TDM ModPak.

Thing is, though, the game SHOULD be fun out of the box. People buy a game and expect it to be playable and challenging when they get it home. If modding is the key to getting any real enjoyment out of SEV, then maybe the price should be lower.

Or maybe the talented and energetic members of the modding community should have been involved in SEV as co-developers. to take some of the pressure and workload off Aaron.

I personally had quite a lot of fun playing against the stock SEIV AI. I have been downloading new shipsets/races for some time, but only began playing mods about a year ago.
