You can investigate if the `graphical.target` unit is activated and
if the programs relying on it are installed.

I dont think that your system is broken. But probably your desktop
environment is. If it doesnt hit by default the graphical.target.
The last time it happened on my laptop in a similar situation I
removed and reinstalled the whole desktop environment (something like
task-gnome-desktop or task-kde-desktop etc.) and fixed itself.
