how old were you when you played civ II? from my experience with strategy games, they're hard to learn and hard to get into at all
my childhood videogame experience consisted of playing mortal kombat games over and over with friends -- always on my own PS2 -- because fighting games with friends are one of the top tier choices when you're a kid and it makes you competitive af. Then i'd mess around in GTA VC and SA once in a while (altho literally everyone played these)
I also remember my PS2 was modified so you could run pirated games on it, so i just bough empty CDs and installed games on them lel, never bought any games (although imagine it hadn't been this way, i'd walk into a videogame store and be mesmerized by all the games you played being up on display - i wouldn't have missed out on them...)
i just got transferred to the exact day when i first played this, it was 2 days before i was gonna go on vacation with my family and i was already extremely excited because of it. my mom was checking what she needed to buy for the trip and my brother was waiting for me to finish my drive so that i could give him the joystick for a couple of minutes
