The Gaming Music Thread |OT| Music is the universal language of mankind

Really is. I can’t bring myself to play it now, though. Just too much new stuff to get through to justify pumping 50+ hours into a game I’ve completed. And they way XGS is shaping up, we’ll never have a barren patch again after the summer

Ya I was lucky that I got to experience the game when I didn’t have a lot of responsibility. Now because of work I am not able to spend as much time gaming as I want to. Just too much going on

I have a difficult time quantifying my favorites now. Many wonderful tracks are already here!

Adulting has jaded me a bit so that many great game soundtracks have been forgotten (or at least the games they were tied to have). So, I’ll share 3 that were very powerful to my teenage self that I still recall the music, the games, and many of the moments the music helped to solidify the game in long term memory.

Xenogears

Final Fantasy 3 (6)

Secret of Mana

Some of my favorite indie soundtracks:

-Celeste -Undertale -Signs of a Sojourner -Cadence of Hyrule -Hades -Journey -Hyper Light Drifter

They’re all quite good, lovely listening.

After finishing Wasteland 3 I was very surprised how good the soundtrack actually is. This track came out of nowhere during the first boss and really adds to the fight and it happens throughout the game.

Been playing and loving Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales. Soundtrack is amazing, just like The Witcher 3’s before it.

That’s just the menu theme… The rest of the OST is on par if not better than this.

Game is fantastic too.

I’m nearing the end of Tales of Vesperia, but earlier on I visited this place and man, I love this theme. It hits me in the feels a little too. :wink:

Well now that I know this thread is a thing I’m just gonna drop in to say that Falcom music is the best in the business and this is the greatest final boss theme ever made

Recently finished the first game in The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. Such good music

There’s not a single GTA theme I don’t like. There all fit perfectly the related games. Absolutely masterclass of intros. Excellent! Rockstar always nails their GTA theme.

Played all their GTA games. These themes remind me so many really good memories.
