Ok continuing on from my last thread, he's a different question.

What is your favourite music from a Video Game?

So for me, there are two answers to this for me.

One: The opening theme songs for the VR Games, I expect you to Die. They are absolute and fantastic, and certainly channel that classic James Bond spy feeling. Cannot help but sing them.

Second, multiple songs from Final Fantasy XIV. To The Edge, Endwalker - Footfalls, Shadowbringers, some of the songs from the Alexander Raids , there's too many to name, but these are all great, and seriously can't stop myself singing along to any of them when they come on.

I regularly listen to the Subnautica OST while working.

Tbh any remix track from rythm heaven. Yesterday Rythm Heaven Reanimated (a fanimation) popped up on my yt feed and I cried listening to (I'm also unclear as to why. Some music just does that to me when I really like it)

Oh, man. So many good ones, especially in the indie space. Celeste and Eastward both have spectacular, eerie, synthy soundtracks that are wonderful. Another indie game, Flinthook, has a theme song that absolutely slaps. Katana Zero had a rad OST, too.

Undertale goes without saying.

Obv Nintendo games, especially ones composed by Koji Kondo, have amazing soundtracks. OoT is one of my favorites, but there are many good ones. Basically any classic Zelda, Mario, Donkey Kong, etc. Even the newer games, like Mario Odyssey and TotK, have great soundtracks. While not first-party Nintendo, the first couple gens of the Pokémon games' music will live in my brain forever more.

I'm also gonna shout-out Grant Kirkhope because he is a genius and basically composed the soundtrack to my childhood. You know him from Banjo-Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64, Mario + Rabbids, and many more games. They aren't soundtracks I'd walk around listening to on Spotify (probably), but in the context of the game world, they are perfection.

I could go on, but I'm just gonna shout out my faves and walk away before this becomes a giant wall of text.

EDIT: Oh lord, how did I forget Halo 2's theme (Mjolnir mix)?

Just finished playing through Cassette Beasts and the music absolutely slaps.

I have five fingers on one hand so here are five favorites:

  • Far Cry 2 (especially title track)
  • Jagged Alliance 2 (especially laptop music)
  • Tie Fighter (it’s Star Wars)
  • Assassin’s Creed Origins (Just beautiful, Sarah Schachner rocks)
  • Crysis (Good example of why music and sound is like 50% of a good game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIFPHVAvOXs&t=203s)
