You can't really make PC that will last you comfortably 10 years with no upgrades, for any budget, let alone $1500 - well, I guess if you bought 6700K and Titan X in 2015, you could still play current games in 1080p at low(er) quality presets...
But what you can do is focus on very good CPU that can last you very long time (cause that's what you might not even end up replacing by your PC's EOL), so something like AMD's 9800X3D with good cooling (unless you specifically have fetish for something like Cities: Skylines 2, in which case you want to go with more than 8 core CPU), good amount of RAM (at least 2x16GB for now, you can pop in more later, but be sure to choose motherboard with 4 memory slots) and fast NVMe (go with 7000+ MB/s sequential read speed for your Games drive, at least TLC memory is preferable, but you can get away with QLCs for Games drive, just don't buy it for System drive). All this will last a long time.
Now, GPU is tricky one - whatever you buy now, it's old tech compared to what's coming from both nVidia and AMD...so, I would probably go with bare minimum to get you over next few years where we're still in this gen and early cross-gen (so something like 9060XT is more than sufficient), and only then buy something really good.
