Absolutely worth it. Had mine (MK3) for 5 years now. Besides having keys to play, I really like using the knobs to record automation, and the pitch stick to try out "bends". Those are also great for sound design in your favourite synth. I don't really use the drum pad (fun but impractical) or the other features, but they're there.
Close your eyes and think about the caboose
It can be hard to describe, thus my interest in what causes it. For myself I've somewhat narrowed it down to generally somber and emotionally-charged moments.
The vocal/scream breakdown in the middle, though I think it's important how the whole song sets the stage for it:
The whole thing, but especially the higher notes sung:
The guitar lead starting at 1:15 & 2:05 and how it synergizes with the bass line, especially on the third and fourth measure of its melody:
Explosions in the Sky - Greet Death
It can happen in songs with different moods though it's more rare, and I kind of think those moments still share some qualities in common with the examples above.
I'm not a huge open world fan. It's fine, but my preference would be more like multiple branching paths, some of which would be locked in a Metroidvania fashion, or just gatekept by strong enemies/bosses so you could still get through if you were stubborn enough. Something like DS1 interconnectivity, DS2 multiple branches, and DS3 Dancer blocking the late game, all put together.
With Metric and Stars? Holy shit what year is it?
I want to know about music that gives you the chills, and why you think it has that effect on you.
I come across these bedroom covers all the time when I'm looking for "(song name) acapella", even though a lot of the times they're not actually acapella versions. But sometimes they are. Love finding these and seeing another unknown person's passion for music.

Chugging along through the Halo: Master Chief Collection.
I missed out on the series back in the day and now I'm playing through all of them. They're great. The collection is insane value, especially since I got it on sale for like $10. 40-50 hours in and I have 1 and a half campaigns left still. Multiplayer is active and works well.
