The problem is I have no interest in playing because it just seems so... dry. Like I'm playing some sort of spreadsheet simulator.

At what point does this game get fun? I REALLY want to like it and am willing to scale the steep learning curve, but how much time (typically) does one need to invest before finding that wonderful "just one more turn" feeling?
The first dozen turns of Dominions_3 is using basic methods for expanding your empire, which may feel boring to a new player. As game turns pass your nation becomes stronger and more strategic options become available. The fun is within the thousands of different strategic options which can be placed together for a powerful overall strategy. In MultiPlayer even more strategies must be considered and increases the challenge.

As time passes you have the options to make either your computer or human opponents stronger via mapedit commands and/or modding commands.
