Still alive - Portal

the entire OST for Nier: Automata is amazing. i still need to play through Nier: Replicant and i think im looking forward to the music more than the game itself.

honestly, the entirety of the final fantasy tactics soundtrack is my jam. especially when you recall specific moments when a track was played during the game. they have so much punch and they're always so epic. the boss tracks rule!

I think the Katamari Damacy soundtrack is the one I return to the most. It's distilled joy.

Zelda music, specifically from BOTW and TOTK. But all the Zelda games have great music.

Surprised Darren Korb hasn't had a mention yet.

Bastion and Hades have phenomenal OSTs.

Megaman without a doubt. Regular and X.

The Hotline Miami 1 and 2 soundtracks are killer.

I can't pick one so here's some of my favorites:
Ludwig, the Holy Blade
Devils Never Cry
Tenebre Rosso Sangue
The Hot Wind Blowing
And of course, Bury The Light

For me it's Doom 2016, it's just insane! Mick Gordon is a genius.

Corridors of Time - Chrono Trigger

It's hard to pick a favorite but I find myself listening to the Hollow Knight soundtrack a lot while writing. It's fantastic!

Shout out to the Hades soundtrack though, I play that while playing D&D and my whole group loves it

Risk of Rain2. Especially the soundtrack for the Survivors of the Void dlc.

The whole album is amazing, but A Placid Island of Ignorance and Once in a Lullaby are epic. The way the ending and the beginning of the album use Prelude to D-Flat Major is so satisfying.

Chris Christodoulou is an amazing musician.

The music from Myst is probably my favorite

I can listen to the soundtrack from The Messenger. RainbowDragonEyes just absolutely knocked that one out of the park.

I find Inon Zur’s tracks on fallout to be superb and can’t wait to see how the Starfield OST ends up, also Mick Gordon’s Doom OST is absolute perfection.

Licensed tracks in the Wipeout series are excellent, including the originals from Cold Storage. Such good memories playing the best AG racer.

Pretty much anything from the first Ratchet and Clank game - Metropolis, Gemlik Base and Gaspar are some of my favourites

It's probably cliche, but when it comes to pure catchiness and memorability, my go-to is Undertale.

Loved the music in hollow knight

Fallout 4 theme music just is great. The game not so much but that menu with that music is awesome.

Frontier: Elite 2 main theme by David Lowe, Amiga version. It may just be my memories from the game, but that track never fails to pick me up.

Crusader: No Remorse, the entire OST. Industrial meets 90s midi techno.

Ascendancy, OST by Nenad Vugrinec. Awesome ambient sounds.

and the Mass Effect OST.

The Persona 5 and Hollow Knight soundtracks are excellent to me, followed closely by Celeste. Hollow Knight's music just sets the mood perfectly for the game.

I listen to my vinyl of the Skyrim soundtrack on a very regular basis.
Runner up would be Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

Battlefield OST

Minecraft. If I had to pick a song specifically, I'm gonna say Subwoofer Lullaby. It just really captures the calm, familiar feeling of "living" in Minecraft. Farming, renovating, adventuring, spelunking, etc. Whenever I'm working on something, ranging from just building the first rendition of a house in a new world to developing an automatic redstone-powered bamboo farm to supply a mass smelting furnace at the bottom of the world that uses water elevators for access, the soundtrack is unmatched.

It also just helps that it's an iconic game for people my age and I've spent years on and off playing it since alpha.

I love the Paradise Killer soundtrack

The Ultratron OST by Allicorn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBGa_w7TiKU&list=PLrNIBo_FmPQL3HB198VLSiO5FhztGXQYy

Both Katana Zero and Bomberman64 have absolutely incredible soundtracks. Very few game tracks stick with me, but both of those games have several incredible entries

TMNT Turtles in Time. So overlooked. It is 100% unapologetic video game music, and it kicks holy amounts of ass.

The masterpiece, Tenchu: stealth assassins

Probably Crypt Of The Necrodancer, I don't have a favourite track though.

My fav, mostly because of nostalgia, has to be the final fantasy 9 soundtrack.

Final Fantasy 6. Future FF games had bigger singles, but none have been as iconic from start to finish as FF6.

Chrono Trigger's soundtrack is a personal favorite.

For me, it's Final Fantasy 8, killer7, and Medieval: Total War.

Riding the Solar Wind - Stellaris.

Descent II OST

Snake Eater by Cynthia Harrell, from the Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater OST

Venus lighthouse from golden sun. It's still my ringtone!

The Furi OST is banger after banger. It's a who's who of syntheave artists. It's my go-to listen when I'm caffeinated and need to be productive.

Ace Combat 7 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kVdCaczLE8
Project Wingman - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgcap-5IBsY
Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous - Almost all of their mythic path themes and then some. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCpTyQU3Vt4&list=PL5LsN8A6ix5qmFLYtrjWxP7zZOoffuuDr&index=8

And of course people here mentioned a few good ones like Undertale, Stellaris and stuff like that.

World of Warcraft, Undertale, Stardew Valley, Sonic Mania, Halo, Hollow Knight

Nintendo is cheating
