Old thread, but I find myself here trying to get an AI mod to work after latest patch.

I would tend to agree AI should be an option. An option. More options are always better than less options. There are times AI characters won't work of course (need to do X, then Y, then you can attack. Hint: forge). But for most encounters it is fun to watch my companions do their thing. And it was fun to watch them mess up at times!

For me, it is not wanting to learn the ins and outs of the every other class that I was not. I wanted to concentrate solely on my character. I understand AI controlling your party can be viewed like "cheating" to some. Heck, I saw my characters do some amazing things I wouldn't have thought of that saved my butt. And I call that a learning experience!

And while not explicitly said on this thread, I have read some responses say "AI players is just not possible". Well, that is one silly claim to make when it is AI that you're playing against.
