Mine is Skyrim.
I always come back to its music. It’s uplifting, telling me that everything’s gonna be alright. I have its songs in many different playlists.
- Frostpunk (epic)
- Citizen Sleeper (cozy and heartfelt)
- Wildermyth (cozy and heartfelt)
- Borderlands 2 (ambient and intense)
- Hotline Miami (ambient and intense)
I just played Frostpunk recently! Really fun game
Unreal tournament '99

David Bergeaud did such a standout job with it, it’s so varied but cohesive, it’s engaging and synthy but real and groovy.
It MAKES the environment just as much as graphics.
Doom 2016
Mine is One Must Fall 2097.
There are some excellent remixes on YouTube if you haven’t heard them!
Persona 4 / 5. So many bops.
Reminder that every day’s great at your Junes
Might be a controversial statement, but I love Persona 5’s music and art design way more than I like the actual game, if I’m being honest. The anime tropiness isn’t really my thing and I’m not a huge fan of the writing, but the vibes of that game are immaculate.
No love for Persona 3?
Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Such an epic soundtrack. Listened to it countless times. Micheal McCann did an amazing job.
Shadow of the Colossus.
Such an epic OST. Beautiful and a bit sad. Just like the game.

Redout! It’s so good at getting that feeling of speed across
Doom Eternal
starfield has some incredible music, love the bars that play death metal
though i dont think anything could beat skyrim, jeremy soule did such a fantastic job
The Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts series have my absolute favourite soundtracks
Others that stay rent free in my head are Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck in World of Illusion, halo 3, odst and reach, theme hospital, sonic 1, 2, Ape Escape and Gain Ground
Not sure about my absolute favorite, but the first games to come to mind when thinking about OSTs is Battlefield 1 and V. The music in those games is amazing.
Johan Söderqvist and Patrik Andrén are great!
I also like the Ace Combat series in general.
Megaman 2
