All of the recent Endless OSTs are incredible!!!
For me: Hollow Knighnt Ori (both) BloodBorne (!!!) Nier Automata (!!!!) Nier Replicant Sonic Mania Dark Souls 3 RDR 2 (!!) The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Guild Wars 2
Recently I've been starting my day of with the title theme from NES Pictionary to help wake me up, that track slaps way more than it has any right to. When I'm working I often put on one of the Zero Escape OSTs to help me think, especially 999 or Virtue's Last Reward. If I'm looking for bangers then Furi or GhostRunner are frequent favourites.
Citizen Sleeper, Mass Effect, Disco Elysium, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Neon White, Valheim, Minecraft, Sable.
MGS series soundtracks are pretty dope.
Games I've played:
Deep Rock Galactic, Terraria + Calamity, RuneScape
Haven't played, but love the soundtrack:
Ace Combat 7, Payday 2, Nier: Automata, Killer Instinct
Deus Ex and Oblivion
Taking it way back to the OG Unreal. The game was amazing as well as the music.
Legend of Heroes has many of my favorite soundtracks. Hard to pick which one is my favorite because so much of them are absolute banger
A somewhat obscure one but the Star Renegades OST always struck me as something different and I still occasionally listen to it years later. Every piece of battle music essentially sounds like a boss theme.
I gotta give a shout-out to Portal 2, maybe not my personal favorite but probably the soundtrack I appreciate the most. It uses music almost like sound effects, with different stems emanating from different test elements, and turning on/off based on their status. I even made my first video essay about it because there's just so much cool stuff going on.
The Bomberman Hero soundtrack slaps.
Deus Ex 1, Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines, and if it counts GTA III.
I love the Deus Ex: Human Revolution OST: It vaguely reminds me of Vangelis' Blade Runner OST.
Cowboy Bebop, all albums
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).
Halo 3:ODST, especially Deference for Darkness. Great mood music.
Bastion, Beyond Good & Evil, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.
Maybe because of nostalgia, but I will always come back to the Fable 1 and 2 OSTs. Especially Fable 1. Bowerstone especially I love.
Mega Man X for SNES is one of my favorites. In the PSP remake, the re-recorded all the original 16-bit songs with live instruments. It's amazing.
