Haha that was a good read. I'm not going to delve to deep into my thoughts here... I think personally the best solution is to tap into our brains.
When I am having a very detailed (or lucid) dream, I can experience the sensation of moving, falling, warmth, coldness, taste, hearing... so many things. Even though I am laying down, a vivid dream can feel extremely realistic, and at times you began to assume that is your reality.
I think future VR experiences will essentially put you into a dream state - a lucid one that you aware of. They will literally send signals into your brain that put you into another reality.
If that sounds all to sci-fi look at all of the work that is already being done, and products like the emotiv headsets. Maybe 20 years this could be a new reality!

True immersion will become at VR singularity. When your HMDs can stimulate parts of your brain to simulate vision, sight, touch smell ... all of these are experienced though your body's own "sensors" that send signals to your Brain CPU. Bypassing your "sensors" and sending signals directly to your brain will bring true 100% immersion. Perhaps not as Macabre as a Matrix style interface, but brain stimulation via electromagnetic fields etc Until that happens all of those devices and doodas are just more hardware trying to fool our wetware.

Another challenge with the sense of touch is that of resistance to movement. If you have two hands on a virtual sword, what is to stop your hands separating. well, in that example you could use a real life proxy, like a vive controller, but if you were to hit a virtual enemy with your fist, where would the resistance come from?
Exo-skeleton comes to mind, on top of the body suit already mentioned, and the challenges associated with that it might actually be easier to use a matrix-style interface, to fool your arm and other associated muscles into thinking that your fist had hit an immovable object.
One day maybe
