Like i said, I'm not a fan of having a screen strapped to my face, doesn't matter how "decent" the model is considered by those who are into such things.

Well, people also aren't too happy about wearing a helmet on a motor bike, quad, kart, skateboard... or to strap on ski goggles or swim goggles or diving goggles to ski /swim / dive, but they put them on anyway to have either more security or a better experience. And it doesn't stop there, they even put on diving suits, protective gear, etc. to enjoy their hobbies.

It is the same for VR headsets: for a minor inconvenience you are getting experiences not possible without the HMD. If the experiences and immersion are worth it, people will accept the necessary minor hassle. Mileage will vary from person to person, but the VR-experiences will get a lot better over time and the hassle will get smaller over time.
