Mine is Skyrim.

I always come back to its music. It's uplifting, telling me that everything's gonna be alright. I have its songs in many different playlists.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lichking soundtrack is fire

Sim City 3000

Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Such an epic soundtrack. Listened to it countless times. Micheal McCann did an amazing job.

I can't believe nobody has said Furi! That game lives through its soundtrack. The game is a series of intense boss fights, but during production they sent concept art and fight details to the artists so the music better matched the scenario, and it all came together beautifully.

Also hotline Miami

Sword & Sworcery

Homeworld. Really effective soundtrack, heightened tension and the feeling of being out in empty space.

As a teen, I used to fall asleep listening to Might and Magic VI. You could literally put the disc in a player because the soundtrack was saved as wav files.

I've always enjoyed the music in The World Ends With You

Ragnarok Online. I love you, SoundTEMP.

Great Gianna Sisters on the C64

Subnautica. Because people get addicted to music by their emotions/feelings. And emotions/feelings in this game are WOW.

Doom Eternal

Dark Souls 2. I spent a lot of time standing in Majula just soaking in that music. So comforting yet melancholy, like sitting in front of a quiet fire, knowing in a minute you have to walk through a blizzard.

I enjoyed the AC: Valhalla Soundtrack much more than the game itself

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Hyper Light Drifter or Fez for modern games. Pokémon Red for OG GameBoy for retro. :D

I was literally thinking about this the other day, and my top 5 (it was fcking hard to choose not gonna lie.)

  • #5 Witcher 3

  • #4 Warhammer 40k Darktide

  • #3 Cyberpunk 2077

  • #2 Bloodborne

  • #1 Warhammer 40k Mechanicus

Honorable mention: Ghostrunner (havent played it, but that OST is fire)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Redout! It's so good at getting that feeling of speed across

[–] nevemsenki 1 points 10 months ago

Divinity 2: Dragon Knight Saga. Kirill made the most fantastic OST...

Second place is for Megaman Zero series I think. I still listen to those tracks to this day while running.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

starfield has some incredible music, love the bars that play death metal

though i dont think anything could beat skyrim, jeremy soule did such a fantastic job

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Xenoblade Chronicles 2, by a wide margin. Skyrim/Morrowind are in the top 5.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I started so many games in Morrowind the music in Sends Neen is imprinted upon me forever.

[–] LucasWaffyWaf 1 points 10 months ago

Einhander and Rise of the Triad have some of the greatest music to have ever been packed with a video game, hands down.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Carmaggedon 1 and TDR, Darksiders 2 and 3, Bastion, Flatout, Plague Tale, Devil May Cry

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Not sure about my absolute favorite, but the first games to come to mind when thinking about OSTs is Battlefield 1 and V. The music in those games is amazing.

Johan Söderqvist and Patrik Andrén are great!

I also like the Ace Combat series in general.

Original Doom. Best Doom.
