Demands

[The Spanish Inquisition]

The AI needs to learn when to demand and when not to. I mean if I had cities surrounding a civ 2 eras behind me and a huge military, they'd still demand from me. The AI needs some sort of "fear meter" that makes them more or less willing to demand or comply to demands by the player. Same goes for war when they stubbornly wont give me 1 city!

The AI civs are really stupid when they give demands. One second they are in fear of me and the next they are demanding something. Real stupid. Add to the fact they will most likely to turtle when you attack and just give up without a fight. Stupid system.

AI logic: I don't like you, gimme all your luxuries and gold to win +2 for positive trade relationship on your diplomatic screen.

Civ Beyond Earth Rising Tide had that with a Respect meter and a separate Fear meter. Fear was based on the differences in power, including military, economic, and political power. Respect was closer to what we have in Civ6; an AI liking what you do.

I thought it was an interesting concept and it would be good to see that added to Civ6.

I agree. When I play Montezuma (often) I get tired of listening to the AI squawk peace offers at me while I'm busy converting their unwashed masses into polite, helpful builders. I'd rather they all get slowly more afraid than merely enraged.
