I’ll start it off - Legend of Dragoon has my heart with this one
Outer Wilds takes the cake for me.
That game takes the soundtrack cake for any category it has an entry in
Morrowind, hands down
I liked the music from Morrowind so much, I found the audio files in the game’s install folder, burned them to a CD, and printed out my own cover art to make a soundtrack album. I was 11 years old; I probably still have it in a box somewhere, haha.
The entire discography is on YouTube I remember ripping off there years ago.
Skyrim, by a longshot. That theme never failed to get me cranked to get my Nordic adventuring on.
HAH. HUAH. HAHH.
HAH. HUAH. HAHH.
OOOhhhh OHHHHH OUHHHHHH!!! AUHHHHHHH!!!
Saw this pop up in my replies before I noticed the context and was very confused… lol
Really deep lyrics. A masterpiece of poetry.
Civ 4: Baba Yetu
For me it’s Civ 5’s theme, always gives me chills
Kingdom Hearts main menu theme. It’s absolutely a nostalgia hit for me. That game was one of my “get-away” games while in a rough situation. Hearing that music always makes me feel a little safer, like I’m just one step away from a completely different life.
Dearly Beloved and the variations on it are the best. I’m partial to the version for Kingdom Hearts 2 but they’re all great
Unreal Tournament 2004:
Yeah, there are newer versions, but I deliberately found the original.
Mass Effect
Elden Ring’s main theme is literally the only video game song I have in my normal music rotation.
But only because Lunar Silver Star Story’s Wings isn’t on Spotify.
I love the Lunar SSS intro, but I’m still partial to the OG Sega CD intro. It gets me pumped up to this day.
Payday 2 really sets the mood with it’s music
Metroid Prime. I only played it for the first time this year when the remaster came out and the music blew me away.
Not main menu but the golden eye pause menu music on the n64 was a banger 🔥
No joke about that shit bro
Can’t believe I had to scroll down so far for this
Woah, wasn’t expecting to see this answer here! OMF is my favorite one hands down.
A close second would be the music for Jazz Jackrabbit.
