Unpopular take - The cult classic board game Puerto Rico is actually boring

I finally played Puerto Rico last weekend at a local game cafe after hearing about it for years. Everyone acts like it's this amazing strategy game, but honestly it felt flat to me. The role selection mechanic just didn't grab me, and after 3 rounds I was checking my phone. I even asked the group if we could switch to something else, but they wanted to finish. Does anyone else think classic eurogames get overhyped just because of their age?

Did I accidentally fall asleep with my phone out during round 2? Because I spent the whole game pretending to strategize while actually scrolling memes.

Wait, you were on your phone during round 2 and nobody called you out for it?
