Personally, I’m a huge fan of Hollow Knight, Ori and the (Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps), and Kingdom Hearts. Orchestral soundtracks are just something else…
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.
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 <insert number> (and pretty much anything by Nobuo Uematsu)
- Hades (and all of the Supergiant Games soundtracks)
- NieR: Automata
- Witcher III

Persona 5 Royal. Close 2nd is Nier: Automata. Both amazing OSTs
Check out J-music Ensemble’s Persona 5 cover album Metagroove! It’s really well made, I couldn’t go back to listening the vanilla soundtrack without thinking of it.
P5R had an excellent soundtrack
My main wish after P5R soundtrack was released… is that I wish there was a definitive playlist of the order once both soundtracks are merged. As of right now, there is a set list for P5 and then a separate one for P5R…
Maybe I need to keep looking, or generate it myself (it’s harder than it seems though).
Is the P5R soundtrack missing music that was in the original P5? I never played the original, but I absolutely loved P5R.
Yeah, it basically includes the new intro, ending theme, and the music for the added story.
P5 OST has 110 songs P5R OST has 30
So to get the full P5R soundtrack you’d need to add both, and zipper up the list somehow. :)
It’s got to be Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, and really everything by Nobuo Uematsu.
Also you can’t go past Koji Kondo. Ocarina of Time is a great example of how talented he is.
This is going way back, but the 7th Guest soundtrack had lived in my head since the first time I saw the game. Really great atmosphere, equal parts creepy and playful, perfect mood for a haunted mansion filled with puzzles.
The haunted jazz aesthetic of the soundtrack is so enjoyable!
I just made a community for the T7G series!

TUNIC, FEZ, Nier Automata, Outer Wilds.
I also have a soft spot for Paper Mario and TTYD, those soundtracks are full of bops
There’s this french MMO i played as a kid called Dofus and that soundtrack still hits hard when I listen. I think part of it is nostalgia but also its just so beautiful
Hollow Knight

Doom 2016 and eternal

Resident evil 4

Fantastic choices here… based on the quality of the list… I gotta listen to the ones on your list that I haven’t heard yet: Deathloop, here we go.
As for
Spectre tourment
, is that Shovel Knight: Spectre of Torment OST?Yeah Shovel Knight Spectre of Torment ost is it. Insane how much better it is than the base game.
