I feel the same way, but I also feel the same way about Civilization. I pop open a virtualbox + windows XP just to play Civ for windows edition..

Something I still really enjoy is Deadlock by Accolade, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock:_Planetary_Conquest

You can get it off gog for $7! I recommend that version over the Steam version. It can be finnicky, but again, I play it on the XP Virtualbox!

No need for a windows VM these days. Civilization works great on SteamPlay and Lutris.
They’ve massively streamlined modern Civ games. Micromanagement is nearly gone now.
I meant more that I like the original Civ still to this day, but I also love Civ 4+ as well. They definitely streamlined it!
Civ 1 works well in DOSBox too
