Similar boat here. I burned out on Civ back in 1991. I believe most of the new Civ4 or later addicts simply started later and missed the original's release.
I also played Civ2 for DOS and the Windows version that had multiplayer over modem. After that I was definitely done with the general mechanics and had my fill. I'm going to take a look at FFH2 out of interest, but more than likely won't start playing it.
I can't play the same game for 25 years straight and I imagine most gamers my age have also just moved on. Maybe the others don't even play games anymore. But MOBAs are still new enough for me that I haven't burned out on those yet. I played WC3 Frozen Throne DOTA back in 2003 when it was new but I didn't play enough to really get it. Fast forward to when League of Legends came out in '09 I was hooked and been playing that ever since.
I have friends that played Duke Nukem 3D over Kali with me and are still playing FPS games daily. That's another genre that I enjoyed but really can't do anymore out of overexposure.
After League of Legends wears off on me I'll probably move to games built for VR as the formulas that work there are solved.
