What I Hate Most About SEIV

[Menschenfresser]

I don't mind the slow turns so much because it gives me a chance to get a new beer or see a man about a horse.

But...

The AI is probably the biggest annoyance. I completely understand that no AI is actually better than humans, but come on...a little consistency (as Atrocities pointed out). I like to role play, as do many here, but it is hard, unless you really use your imagination, to explain away some of their actions.

Seems like the best ones are either ultra friendly or ultra mean. Ones in the middle, flip back and forth so fast they never get ahead.

The worst of all are the neutral empires. I have time and time again tried to help the little guys. Once I even built a sphereworld for one neutral, just for fun. I gifted it to them and they declared war on me several turns later. I've also tried to gift neutrals ships. I once gifted one neutral empire 20 dreadnoughts, so as to be a heavily militarized buffer zone, but the next turn all the ships were gone. It was a full tech game, so they had nothing to gain other than resources by scrapping them. Stupid.
