== Age of Wonders ==
Hot off the heels of ruining one popular fantasy game franchise, Paradox bought up the Age of Wonders franchise and transformed a novel hybrid of RTS and HOMM gameplay into a generic 4X game. To top it off, they decided that the AI in this game won't play under any restrictions that players have to deal with, such as requiring buildings for certain units, or taking time to build stuff. The AI can literally summon armies to fight you whenever they want. If you raid an AI opponent you are actually throwing because they don't use those resources. In combat, the AI doesn't have any limitations on spellcasting, they can use any spell they want even if they don't have points in that element. It's ridiculous, how do you fuck up this bad?

The game released with like 4 base races, and currently has 10,000 DLC packs. This will be a recurrent pattern with Paradox games.
