Yeah. I dont like the throne room because it just takes up to much time. If you're a starter, and you want to see all the cool sides of Civ2, then watch the wonder movies, the High Council scenes, throne room and all that crap. But as you advance, i think that they're gonna start pissing you off and you'll turn them off.
Hell, i even turn of the "order restored" and "we love the king day" announcments...
