Help a bean w no experience get a prebuilt gaming laptop for a small space

Hi just a shot in the dark here but hello hello! I've been using a Dell Inspiron 13 7000 2-in-1 for years now and I believe I am in need of an upgrade 😅 not to PC unfortunately because I do not have the space for one, but a gaming laptop because I can't run a lot of cool games on my current one. I have zero experience or knowledge on building pc and pc specs but I can list what I would like to use it for.

  • Gmod
  • Palworld
  • Garden Paws and Critter Cove (indie games)
  • I know every pc can run Minecraft even my current one but I'll put it on the list for completion's sake
  • Rust? I would like to try it I heard it's fun
  • VRChat
  • Shenmue I-III
  • Games by emulation - N64, GC, Wii, PS1, PS2, PS3, 3DS, Switch
  • The dream is to be able to run GTAV and RDR2 because I can't have a home console in my living situation :(

So yeah, basically your standard modern 3D game kinda stuff as well as being able to emulate older console gens. I understand that GTAV and RDR2 are big games so I can let those two slide but the rest of the list is basically what I require, especially Gmod because I really wanna play it but for some reason it will freeze my current laptop to hell if I try to join a server. In terms of budget I've been told by my mom it's $1600 but I might be able to go higher to 2000-something if need be. As I don't have any friends in my area that can help me with this sort of stuff I'm hoping someone can point me to a pre-built that I can just buy.
