Until i remembered how much better masters of orion 2 was. 4x games are lost to me now, there is nothing left but huddle around and pray for stardock to make a proper Masters of Orion 4.

IMO, ofcourse.

I thought it was just me. It just ended up making me want to play Alpha Centauri or Master of Orion 2. Oh thank god. I thought it was just me.

It does sometimes seem to be a game that you will eventually always win, although I haven't played extensively against the higher AI settings. It's a long game too, I've only played it a couple of times all the way through. Need serious time to get through everything. But still. The interface is pretty incredible ... very complex, but somehow manages to condense everything. I loved GalCiv II, but I understand what you mean about the “next-turning”.
