Losing Mega Evil Status?

This has never happened to me, because once I hit "mega evil" level I usually just continue to pull away from the AI players. But I was curious if anyone had ever seen this.

If you become the "mega evil empire", but subsequently fall below the "mega evil" gap in points between you and the nearest AI player, will the AI players potentially make peace with you? Or do they consider you "mega evil" for the rest of the game regardless?

Yes, it's happened to me . . . once. The AIs started to offer me treaties, but it didn't last long.

Can't remember if it was SE4 or SE5, but yes it has happened... I expanded rapidly, everybody hated me because I was "mega evil," but then I stopped expanding and concentrated on...well, let's say organizing my empire... An AI pulled ahead of me, the Eee or the Drushocka or whoever... They became "mega evil" and after some of the other AIs got closer to my score, they stopped treating me like a pariah.

Interesting. Thanks! Smile

The game programming is a little more sophisticated than I thought it was. Wink
