these are random search results that may or may not be authoritative, but they should be a good start.

How do I change the Vim settings inside of Doom Emacs?
Doom uses Evil-mode for vim emulation. https://github.com/noctuid/evil-guide is a good guide for translating between vim concepts and Emacs.

Intro to Evil for non-Vim users? Beyond evil-tutor
I'm not aware of a guide specifically for non-vim users, but pretty much any vim guide will be helpful - it's just best to avoid parts on vimscript, as evil isn't configured using that. Even though it introduces itself as a guide for Vim users, I still think https://github.com/noctuid/evil-guide is worth a read. As for packages which complement evil, most are named with evil as a prefix, so you can browse melpa with that in mind. One exception that comes to mind is lispyville, which provides an evil approach for editing s-expressions. evil-cleverparens is also worth a look. Feel free to ask any questions on the evil issues page too!

About to declare Emacs bankruptcy. Any advice for cool or new packages, defaults, or ideas I should use before I start building my init.el? Also interested in guides to using evil.
Evil is a complex machinery build by vim nostalgic refugees, so familiarity with Vim's modal editing model is still recommended. I like this, even if it's not a tutorial: https://github.com/noctuid/evil-guide

How to actually define key binds in Emacs?
I'd recommend reading noctuid's evil guide, particularly the link to the spacemacs keymap guide and the mention of the commentary on evil-core.el
-
Is it worth renouncing evil and becoming a good person?
It’s probably worth understanding what evil is doing so you can make your own key bindings for packages you find. I personally don’t think evil is obscuring things for me because I’ve gotten pretty good at using the introspection features of emacs to look at what everything is doing. The guide from noctuid was a good reference when I read it https://github.com/noctuid/evil-guide.

Consistent Emacs Keybindings
Set aside a little bit of time to learn properly how Emacs and evil-mode work together. Not sure if you've seen it, but here's an excellent guide for transitioning from Vim to Emacs with evil-mode. It's by the author/maintainer of general.el.
-
Is there a way to present a warning message when a key combination is redefined? So I have some kind of heads up that a conflict occured?
A bit unrelated to your question, but if you are having trouble with keybindings I really recommend this read. Also, if you use evil-mode, reading evil-guide is really worth it as well, to understand how to configure things correctly.
-
Is there a package to use Vimscript in evil-mode?
This should make the porting process easier https://github.com/noctuid/evil-guide

I also use writeroom because I prefer its simplicity, but worth mentioning that olivetti is the more popular writing mode.

Don't have a specific tutorial except to suggest setting org-mode to use olivetti and a nice variable pitch font for writing prose. You might also like the poet theme.

Looking for evil-mode resources for non vim users emacs beginners
If you want to try out some third-party packages in the beginning, I think the most "bang-for-your-buck" you'll get is with Avy. Also, expand-region. And specifically for writing: olivetti-mode, flyspell, dictionary, and Nicolas Rougier's Nano and Elegant Emacs setups.
What are some alternatives?
nano-emacs - GNU Emacs / N Λ N O - Emacs made simple
writeroom-mode - Writeroom-mode: distraction-free writing for Emacs.
expand-region.el - Emacs extension to increase selected region by semantic units.
fountain-mode - Emacs major mode for screenwriting in Fountain plain-text markup
avy - Jump to things in Emacs tree-style
visual-fill-column - Emacs mode for wrapping visual-line-mode buffers at fill-column.
elegant-emacs - A very minimal but elegant emacs (I think)
Emacs-langtool - LanguageTool for Emacs
use-package - A use-package declaration for simplifying your .emacs
transient - Transient commands
org-appear - Toggle visibility of hidden Org mode element parts upon entering and leaving an element
