Been using my dt990 pros for the last 6 or so years, always been my go to, the top end and soundstage is baller
I have had mine for about 3 years and I've loved everything about them except the lack of a removable cable. I ended up modifying mine to have a mini xlr jack last year and it's been great (though soldering was such a pain with my lack of skills and really cheap soldering iron)
When I was first buying a headphone because my old cheap gaming headset broke, I listed the DT990s in my list of possibilities, but due to me being incredibly dumb, the dt990s not having a detachable cable and the fact that at the time I didn't have enough disposable income to get them, I decided to get a pair of HyperX Cloud Alpha IIs, I don't necessarily regret my decision, but I'd rather I had bought an open back headphone instead of a closed gaming headset.
