I like it for desktop, but for me XFCE is all I need. I figure I want to mostly focus on the application I'm using not the Window Manager. I click the icon, application opens and I do stuff, and occassionally run apt update && apt upgrade and kinda forget the OS is even there.
With games I tend to have more issues with older games becoming broken after awhile than with new games not working because the OS is old. Only problems I've had with new games is because I had a computer that was >10 years old and eventually the hardware couldn't run new games anymore. But then I mostly play strategy games and base builder games, so maybe that's why I don't have a lot of issues there.
Debian is the best OS for people that don't want to think about the OS.
