This was the first game i ever bought. Bought it when i didnt even had a pc back then, and dreamt of playing this. Good old 4x game. Once in a while its nostalgic to jump back into this :-) You wont be playing this nonstop but once in a while its worth the grinding to achieve victory ;-) One side note though, i also own the original as i just mentioned, but whenever you colonize or meet a new race or have victory it should autoplay the cinematic video. For some reason it does not do this, but the movies are present in the fold. Else 5 stars :-)
