I am tied with Minecraft and the 2002 Ratchet and clank soundtrack

Music is music, if you like it and want to listen to it and feel a connection to it then it's good music and it shouldn't matter where it came from

I was on Witcher 3 ost for YEARS, it's still on my ipod (ipod? What's that??). The past few months it's been Ori and the Blind Forest or Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Crescendo dramatic adventure or melancholy sweet sorrow. I can't play those kind of games but am always eager for a new soundtrack!

E33 music by Lorien Testard, instant classic : Une vie a t'aimer

What a revelation that game was. I remember being intriuged by the initial trailer, the music in that was great. They recently released the 30-minute version of all 3 the "Une Vie" tracks combined, it's fantastic. I also love Simon's theme.

Yeah. You can argue for FF6 or Battle on Big Bridge from FF5 or even bits of 8 or 9... but if in all those cases you have to start with explaining why it ISN'T Final Fantasy 7... then you just have to accept that no, it's FF7.
That said, on a wider squaresoft level... Chrono Trigger is RIGHT. THERE.

I loved Donkey Kong Country 2’s soundtrack when I was a kid. Still like it as an adult. Shadow Of The Colossus was pretty epic too. Favorites as an adult prolly Ori and Journey and Honor of Kings (Thomas Parisch cues), I’ve never played these games but enjoy the music:)

The music from Ori and Ark are pretty great. Coincidentally, both composed by Gareth Coker.

What's incredible is that any time someone makes a cover of Doom Eternal, it's just never as heavy as the original. Don't get me wrong, they're usually fantastic and worthy of praise, but they're simply not as heavy as the masterpiece Mick Gordon made. (Which is also why I'm still salty about Bethesda fucking him over.)

1 year ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

and Doom DarkAges feels heavily "in the style-of" and not close to his original work.

1 year ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Mick Gordon is just a musical god......
He's obviously a metal-guy by nature.... but I recommend listening to the Killer Instinct season 1 and 2 soundtracks also....
Really shows Mick's range....... there's no genres Mick can't make heavier than anyone else...

And if you're a little nerdy about "behind the scenes" stuff, there's some REAL gold stories in the making of several of the tracks.

The flickering street lights of a burning city at night, heavy rainfall on the streets of covenant occupied New Mambasa. A lone ODST trooper roams through searching for his scattered squad, piano streams in varied along with a steady saxophone to get you through the long night

I have a mod for KSP that lets me run custom soundtracks. Low atmosphere and mid orbit soundtracks for Kerbin is the Shipbreaker soundtrack. High atmosphere and near atmosphere orbit soundtracks use the "tension" variants (what you hear when pulling reactors or big boy thrusters).
