What's the most immersive /vr/ game to you now that you're an adult?
I know it's a vague question but I just want to recapture that feeling of being completely absorbed by the world in the videogame again like when I was a kid and getting lost in a Zelda game felt like it a real forest.

OoT, Resident Evil, Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid
Sorry OP, that immersion was false due to having the game boy close to your face, or because the cord on your Genesis controller was too short.
Why are there worms flying in the sky?

Phantasy Star 4 does that for me OP. Without a doubt.
Many from my childhood. In OOT I could almost smell the warming field grass and taste the warm breath of the wind. I felt hot in barren Gerudo Valley, and freezing in the Ice Cavern.
In MM, I used to stand in Termina Field on the night of the 3rd and marvel at the color of the sky as the world ended in front of me. The hairs on the nape of my neck would stand up in Ikana Valley and I could almost smell the faint perfume of the petite flowers in Clocktown West.
The only games I've felt this connection with since are the BUILD holy triad (Duke3D, Shadow Warrior, especially Blood), which I only just played as an adult. Once again in Blood I could feel the cold damp air of the crypts, smell the high-sweet rot of the water-logged grass. Choke on the smog of cities that had never even herd of a "catalytic converter". In Shadow Warrior, the aromatic eastern pines smelled lovely as I butchered to my heart's content. I even fancied I could feel the wind on the nape of my neck and smell rain in the air as a storm kicked up over Zilla Construction.
I had thought my imagination lost with adulthood. But the BUILD games showed me it was just sleeping. Good luck, OP.
Pretty much nothing is as good as Zelda. Beyond Good and Evil is the next best thing though.

Nothing _was_ as good, you mean. Nintendo is pretty much milking it to death.
ocarina of time, pokemon red and blue

Beyond Good and Evil was too fucking small to be immersive.
Rayman 2 was godly.

Rayman 2 had a top-tier atmosphere as a kid. I was mesmerized by that game.
I played the 3DS version and was surprised by how it was really... bad. Maybe I just need to play it on the TV again.

These are games I found really immersive:
Azure Dreams
Tomba!
Super Metroid
Boku no Natsuyasumi
Super Metroid or Resident Evil 2

I have the 3DS version too... I like the Dreamcast graphics and music, but it's a bit glitchy, the music is scratchy as fuck (seriously if you're not wearing headphones and put volume max it sounds like shit) and the 3D is fucking terrible. But if you turn off the 3D the graphics work great, better than emulating the N64 where lums don't appear properly.

>the original colorless version
Is definitely more immersive than the color version. The power of imagination is impressive.
