Hi all. Asking for to take a look at my starting setup plan. My aims here is to create ambient+generative also cinematic type of sound. Any opinions are welcome. Cheers!

Still lots missing there...you'll want a couple more VCOs to build up initial textures, definitely a couple of filters, and VCAs for both audio (exponential) and CV (linear, DC-coupled) amplitude control are totally necessary. Decent start, but there's quite a way to go...
I think this is the right start, but here are a few points:
I found rings to be a beautiful module, but with a kind of restrained sound palette, you should test it in VCV Rack before committing.
For generative patches you might want a random source and sample and hold modules, maybe replace PNW with Wooglebug? It is a powerful random source and has a master clock output. You can add a RCD if you're interested in more rhythmical patches too.
Sloth and Batumi might overlap. I don't own any of them, but I've seen the Batumi doing chaotic modulation, especially if self patched (). I might put Function from MakeNoise in the place of Sloth, since it can generate tiny to giant envelopes, cycle as an LFO, and be used as a sample and hold, everything CV controllable, of course.
The rest is taste, I guess! Take a look at the Noise Engineering oscillators, the wavetable one sounds cinematic. Don't forget VCAs, Multiples and Mixers. If you run out of space, you might consider buy an external reverb unit like https://www.strymon.net/bigsky/, since I personally never CV modulate anything dramatic on the reverb, and this is a small rack.
Soo... you're here, after all.
