Gaming

The original quake soundtrack is great if "sound textures by Nine Inch Nails" interests you. Adding on to that, try the soundtracks for fan-made quake campaigns like Arcane Dimensions and Dwell.

Basically any Pokemon game.

And this one's incredibly niche, but the music in Clicker Heroes 2 slaps.

Granado Espada is a favorite classic and then there's Suikoden 2for the nostalgia

Celeste's OST is really nice. Love it's high energy with the B-side tracks. In game, experiencing Reflections and it's progression throughout how it reflects it's dream that becomes more intense and nightmarish made me fall in love with Lena Raine's style. If anyone wants to hear

Basically every persona game

Nier Automata/Replicant and Metal Gear Rising are my favourite soundtracks if not music in general. The Nier soundtrack is so emotional, especially when you know the story behind the songs, while the Metal Gear Rising Soundtrack is basically just pure adrenaline.

I would say Halo 3: the music that play in the teaser triggered a HUGE hype instantly and because bungie delivered, the game has a special place in my heart, including the OST.

This year Baldur's Gate 3 OST is also about to be a banger (hope larian win the best score at the GA, even if it will be complicated with FFXVI OST)

Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross will always bring me to tears. 💙 Also Robo's Theme is a banger!

I used to fall asleep to a Morrowind OST CD.

Really anything by Grant Kirkhope, Banjo Kazooie Yooka Laylee, etc, and on the Rare train, Donkey Kong Country 2 had great music.

Also love the Undertale soundtrack.

Super Mario Galaxy is the one that stuck with me. Also, I love Stardew Valley's and Ori's off the top of my head.

Riven gives me goosebumps every time.

I haven't even played Machinarium or Samorost 3, but both of those soundtracks are masterpieces.

The Tunic soundtrack is very good, great music for putting on while getting some work done!

Whole soundtrack for the Talos Principle. So peaceful.

I didn't see it after scrolling for a bit, so

Hades

Absolute bangers. Along with everything else in the Supergiant lineup.

There are so many good game soundtracks listed in this tread!

Here are some of my favorites:

• Chrono Trigger
• Diablo II
• Elden Ring
• Final Fantasy (and pretty much anything by Nobuo Uematsu)
• Hades (and all of the Supergiant Games soundtracks)
• NieR: Automata
• Witcher III

Most of my favorites are already here, but one that's unfortunately overlooked is the soundtrack to Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magic Obscura. It's all this really moody, atmospheric string quartet music that just fits the game perfectly. I really recommend you give it a shot, it's really unique!

FFVIII or FFX

I listened to Sonic Adventure 2 and Paper Mario TTYD’s soundtracks a ton when I was younger.

a lil bit of payday

All 3 Xenoblade Chronicles games have some of my all-time favorite game music

Persona 4 and Xenoblade 2 are my top 2

Deus Ex Human Revolution & Mankind Divided

I think the Elder Scrolls games all have great music, but Morrowind's OST has always stood out as amazing. Hearing that opening soundtrack immediately sends me back to playing it for the first time!

Ridge Racer Type 4

I have yet to find a racing game that makes me trance away with their scenic levels and music like this one.

Been replaying it since forever waiting for Namco to make a remaster or continuing the series

I'm this thread I've missed Bastion, once the top answer of these kind of threads.

Personally I'm very fond of the germanized versions of pop music songs in Wolfenstein: a new order.

Star Ocean 3, Yakuza: Like a Dragon

In most games I turn off the music pretty quickly so the ones where I don't must be my favorites.

• Heroes of the Storm. Great originals and lots of reworks of favorites from other Blizzard games. I must admit that I turned it off eventually because I play better without music but I've listened to those tunes for hundreds of hours over the years.

• Crypt of the Necrodancer, which is a good thing since it's a rhythm game :)

• The Isaac and VVVVVV music fit the games really well.

• The digital version of the Ascension deckbuilding game has some really nice art and music. My favorite is the Dreamscape stuff.

Edit, almost forgot, lots of favorites from the 8-bit home computer days (Spectrum, C-64). From console Earthbound was memorable.

For me it's Stellaris, hands down, but also the Hammock album that was made for Far Cry 5 (Hammock being one of my favorite bands).

Minecraft and Terraria, oh yeah also Hollow Knight

Final Fantasy XIV. I'm so excited to hear what Masayoshi Soken will cook up next. Other ones to mention are Guilty Gear Strive, MegaMan X and Zero series, and The World Ends With You.

Deus Ex and Oblivion

Slay the Spire. There are a number of good songs but the theme for the final super secret boss is an absolute banger.

I really love Divinity 2's soundtrack.

nobody has mentioned disco elysium? legendary soudtrack immo

Xenoblade 2, Xenosaga 2, Sonic 3 and Knuckles, Final Fantasy 6, Octopath 2, Jet Set Radio Future 😎
