Before getting one I couldnt imagine what I would do with it.
Now that I have it I couldnt imagine what I would do without it. I am playing far more games and having more fun doing so. It acted as a drop in replacement for a work computer one week while I had to replace a laptop. Its just a pleasure to use. Games look incredible on it. Once you are comfortable with it, in some ways, its better than a mouse and keyboard (specifically if you have a good key mapping and have developed competence with the touch pads). And I play games like City Skylines, Factorio, BG3, Valheim.
If you want to fall in love and never go back, I would say to play Witcher 3. I think that game was a pure pleasure to play. And getting in 15 minutes of valheim while I'm laying in bed before sleep is something I could never do with a PC.
