at the age of 26 I'm not what you'd usually call a "veteran". I still consider myself as such, because - thanks to multiple abandonware sites, DosBox and emulators - I've played pretty much every RPG that's out there. I've not finished all of them, mind you. but I've played them nonetheless.
my first RPG was Icewind Dale. I got it because of its wintery theme and visuals, I didn't know what "RPG" meant back then. my thoughts were: a) I love the visuals b) I love the soundtrack and atmosphere c) I really dig the gameplay, I want more games like that.
