Kingsfield 2 and 4 take top spot for me, calm and cool tracks I can listen to over and over. As good as the post mike wazowski fromsoft music is after a while the loud orchestral stuff kinda blends into each other and becomes quite grating over time. Its good ingame in the setting or boss fight but i dont like listening to it independently.
Older fromsoft music is peak and a lot of their older games are in my top 10 game music.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengance, absolutely slaps. Cave Story, Undertale, and Breath of the Wild also have bangers
- Subnautica
- Stardew valley
- Earthbound
- Metal gear solid (1-3)
- Street fighter 3 third strike
Gone Home, Cassette Beasts, Breath of the Wild, and Red Dead Redemption are my favorites.
Trails from Zero, Trails to Azure and Trails of Cold Steel I and II are all pretty much flawless.
Ys I & II are also great, there’s a reason why the series is over 35 years old and those are the best remembered OSTs, mostly by the GOAT Yuzo Koshiro.
elder scrolls 3 to 5, minecraft, pokemon series, castlevania sorrow games, knights of the old republic, earthbound/mother series
Couple I like off the top of my head from both console and pc that I listen to: Castlevania SOTN, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy VIII, Everquest (midis are on point), Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy XI, Metal Gear (entire franchise has good music), Sonic (again whole franchise, banger music), anything by Jeremy Soule (Neverwinter Nights, Morrowind, Oblivion) (so soothing and calming to listen to even if his music kind of blends together).
Sometimes the morrowind theme just starts playing in my head when I walk around.
Excellent soundtrack to just hiking through the wilderness.
Morrowind my favorite soundtrack to actually get work done. There was an article about how Jeremy Soule designed it to be good, but not overpowering because of its repetition.
The size of the game influenced my style because I knew the music would be heard over and over and over again. And so it was a very cautious decision. The minimalism that people describe in Morrowind and Oblivion was very intentional, and for me it was one of these things where I tried to paint in soft tones so the ear wouldn’t get worn out playing the game for 100 hours.
RA2 and Yuri’s Revenge soundtracks slap. Hell March is a banger.
- Diablo
- Halo
- Castlevania (most of classic vania)
- Warhammer 40000: Mechanicus
- Fallout
- Elder Scrolls Oblivion
- Wizardry - Tale of the Forsaken Land
- Nier (first game soundtrack)
- Baldurs Gate II
- Deadly Premonition
- Resident Evil
- Lawnmower Man snes
- Devil Summoner Soul Hackers
- Mass Effect
- REZ
