Dude, just being tired after your first ever gym session already puts you in a better mindset. If you're asking yourself if it's worth it, then it most definitely is.

The fact that you are even asking this question tells me you don't work out. You really have no reason not to do it. It is probably most beneficial thing for your life you can invest your time into (along with having a healthy diet, of course).

But to answer your question, it would really depend on your weight. I can only answer from the prospective of going from skinny/unfit to muscular/athletic. Assuming you keep to a strict training regime, you will start to see modest gains in about two weeks. I also noticed I would get more looks from girls at school and more respect from everyone in general as time went past. As for game, looking better will always help, but even the best looking guy will get nowhere if he doesn't know hot to talk to girls.

I think it's not enough to have good lifts, you have to get definition by decreasing your BF%

Its helped me a lot. I went from getting phone numbers and no response to getting some bangs.

Tell a girl you lifted 300 lbs that day. See how she reacts.

Also it improves confidence. Especially if you have a good friend to foster some healthy competition in the gym with you.

Its improved my appearance, putting on muscle has helped tighted up my skin a around my chest and ribs (lost 100 lbs).

My body feels powerful, I feel powerful and that translates into my behavior.

If your not mastering your body your fucking up man. Its your duty as a man to master your body and harness its power.

I DLed 315 today and the girl behind the counter at the gym came up and started talking to me. So yeah, makes a huge difference.

As I see it, strength training has three principle benefits relating to the red pill side of life:

it builds muscle and helps control body composition. this will make you more physically attractive and you'll get better results with women in the long run.
it ups testosterone which will make you more assertive to a degree. personally I think most guys would get a better benefit in this regard if they stopped masturbating for a week or so, but overall every little bit helps.
as your strength increases you'll gain some level of confidence from it, which again will make you more attractive to women.

My long-term goals are to get to 300/400/500 in BP/SQ/DL as outlined by Stuart McRobert in his book 'Beyond Brawn'

Those are great goals, if you weigh 200lbs. 1.5x body weight for bench, 2x for squat, and 2.5x for deadlift are what people should be looking at. Don't look at the weights per se and instead focus on the multipliers of your body weight for the respective lifts. A 150lb guy trying to lift the same weights as a 200, 250, or 300lb guy will quickly lead to frustration.

your own weight? and better proportions are x/1.5x/2x in BP/SQ/DL.
