That genre is mind-blowing in VR. Have you considered an hp reverb and a cheap monitor instead?
I've been trying out an Oculus first gen but my computer space are quite limited so the sensors kept getting either knocked out of alignment or seemed to "lose" me as I turned my head, so I've resigned to use monitors for when I need to move around.
I've used the headset for things like demo reels and such where you only need to turn your head rather than use controls, since that happens rarely enough that I don't mind going through the sensor setup each time
If I were you, I'd look into something like the HP Reverb G2 that has inside-out tracking (no external cameras or lighthouses). The immersion you get with VR is way beyond anything you can get from a screen.
My full setup a Vive Pro 2 with a VKB HOSAS setup and a YawVR 2, and it feels spectacular, though getting interdicted the first time almost made me piss myself.
