From GameWatcher: “Paradox has shared more details about the AI improvements coming to sci-fi grand strategy game Stellaris in both the near and far future. The team behind the game plans to mainly focus on its handling of economy and pops, since they’re the main drivers behind any efforts of expansion or conquest.
Although the developer noted that Stellaris’ AI has been performing better since patch 3.2 went live, it did admit that there were multiple areas where it’s still struggling, like when playing as Void Dwellers.”
