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…

      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.

        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. :)

    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.

    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.

    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
