It seems that the more games I complete, the more points I earn to develop my avatar. I like this a lot but the AI avatars are not going to power up in a similar manner and eventually, I will steamroll the AI.
I've also noticed that one or two AI avatars, Poe and Hugo IIRC both have bonuses. Are there plans to release massively OP AI avatars too to play against later or do we just have to wait for friends to level theirs up and play with them instead?
You don't get to use the traits you apply to your avatar. That's just how your avatar shows up in the Persona collection online. Your avatar would have those traits as an AI in someone else's game, but not your own.
Interesting, I did not know that. Thank you. So all this work levelling up, giving them boosts to science, production or military unit strength is for somebody else's benefit?
Detriment, technically. Basically, look at it as making your own avatar distinct or harder to topple as an AI in someone else's game.
Not sure why they chose to make the traits A) as powerful as they are and B) not allowing the player to take them as choices in their own game. You could do custom empires in Endless Space 1/2 and Endless Legend on top of a base empire, but I guess they chose to not allow that level of customization here.
It would be pretty cool to have an option to take those avatar bonuses for yourself. I'll never have a hope of beating the hardest difficulties but it might be fun to play on them with a powered up avatar giving me some extra help!
Maybe the approach is that your avatar represents you in others' games. So more you play the game more traits will be unlocked based on your actions/achievements so you'll be able to set up your avatar more and more accurately to your strengths and gameplay style :) This unlocking thing is the way of how the game gets to know you.
So those traits are not to improve your playstyle as you already have those skills :) Since there's no learning system implemented in the game this is the way how the AI can adapt your playstyle through accordingly chosen bonuses and boosts.
