    All 4X games (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate) cheat. They cheated because the game programmers suck ass and had no idea how to create a competitive AI. The most evil culprit is the creator of Fallen Enchantress and Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes. The neutral enemies will do their best to smash you, but the AI can just walk past them, even stack on them without being attacked because the AI is very dumb. Because the AI is very dumb, the programmer make them cheat by making them invulnerable to neutral enemies. So while you, the player have to watch out for enemies even in previously cleared land, the AI can just build a city in monster nests and the monsters will just walk away. AI factions also get more resources than human players do.

    I think the only 4X games I have played recently where the AI doesn't cheat are Dominions 4 and Paradox's 4Xs such as Hearts of Iron, Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings. It can't be helped that some countries are bigger than others, but everyone plays following the same rules.

    Even Galactic Empires cheat. Those bastards.

    Oblivion. A character I have to kill for a quest remains plot essential so he can't die, instead I get a bounty put on me? :blobdizzy: HE WAS DIGGING UP DEAD BODIES AND SELLING THEIR SHIT! IT WAS JUSTICE!

    Imagine struggling through many many quests... And finding out, that yes, you only have two more quests before you finally complete the damn game...
    And then guess what happens...
    Your game freezes. It freaking freezes at that one point and no matter how many times your replay... It won't proceed past that point... :blobsob:
