Just play ONE multiplayer game, just one, just 2 hours in the game and enjoy the overwhelming ME in Economy and Fleet next to you
Why? Players all have different skill levels. The AI doesn't. That a competent player can outplay me doesn't prove anything or refute the point I made in the post you quoted.
Yeah, except "This empire is just plain stronger" isn't a good type of diversity. "This type of empire is heavily focused on rushing unity" is good.
Neither is "This empire is exactly the same as any other"
I do not witness this, and you are wrong.
You've only got your assertion for that. I do witness this - I imagine you don't because you haven't been paying attention or don't have enough experience.
You are, however, implying they would behave in a similar manner.
No I'm not.
Good god, you are living in an alternate universe. I'm done with you.
So are you going to refute the point, or just make a poor ad hominem?
Surprisingly, I don't care if you are "done" with me, it's your choice not to engage in a positive manner in a productive conversation on a friendly forum.
