Play Alyx ASAP imo. That game convinced me that VR has truly arrived and has unbelievable potential. Except it hasn't, since Superhot VR and Alyx are still the only games that really grabbed my interest.
I hear its amazing. My reasoning for putting it off is that everything I've heard has said that the biggest problem with Alyx is that its a double edged sword because it is the greatest experience anyone has made thus far in VR and nothing else anyone has made out there has come even remotely close. I kinda wanna savor it a bit. Right now everything is still new and fun and I'm worried if I jump into Alyx it'll just leave a bitter taste in my mouth.
Your plan is good regarding waiting a bit for Alex.
VR games/experiences I'd recommend trying:
What does this mean:
PS3 games via RPCS3 with stereoscopic 3d render mode turned on (same setup as above)
Just 3D gaming? I looked it up and all I saw was someone playing a game in a virtual theatre or something
couldn't tell what was going on
Have you ever seen a 3D movie before? It's that experience but you're controlling the characters on screen. It's also the best form of it because everything in the scene has depth.
If you've played a 3ds with the 3d mode turned on it's the same thing except the the effect is way better in VR because of the screen resolution/differences in the 3d projection technology.
The bright side is that there's a lot of 3rd party campaigns. Also, if you ever get the chance to try it with the bhaptics hardware (vest and sleeves) it just bumps up the amazingness of the experience.
