I think it depends on if you're able to find some tables that really click for you. If there isn't something about a table that hooks me whether it's the visual design, sound design, scoring or the gimmicks, then I don't really have that much fun playing it.
I discovered a handful of favorites via a torrent of Pinball Arcade an anon linked in a thread a long time ago and I'm lucky enough to have played some of them on real tables at a pinball convention that isn't too far from where I live. I'd love to have at least one of them (Probably Centaur or Xenon) but if not for the fucking staggering cost of buying/maintaining it I know that after not too long it would start collecting dust. I'm content with just playing virtual recreation tables and fully gameified stuff like Xenotilt for the time being. If you want something free to try out, look into Visual Pinball. It's finnicky to set up, but there are tons of tables pinball nerds have recreated and released themselves to use on virtual pinball tables but you can also just play them on your computer, ideally with a portrait monitor.
