I can never get the slang right it seems
Redacted 2 points 5 months ago
To be fair the term has been overused recently, often in the wrong context. Some people post "hot take" when it's the least controversial, blatantly obvious take, so I can see how you might think it was the other way around.

Nier and Clair Obscur have fantastic soundtracks
Kolanaki 8 points 5 months ago
Clair Obscure's music is so good, almost every single one with lyrics is in my normal everyday playlist. Most VG music doesn't get that honor and stays in their own specific playlist. Having lyrics is a big plus for me.
purplemonkeymad 4 points 5 months ago
Transistor's main character is a singer and the soundtrack is basically meant to be her songs. There are several with lyrics too that really are just songs and not backgrounds to the game.

Lol, I was forcing everyone I could to listen to the christmas songs they put out in the event. I could listen to a robot voice telling me I'm not working hard enough all day.
Buddahriffic 1 point 5 months ago
I played Satisfactory before Sanctum, so I was already familiar with a bunch of the Sanctum music, which made my mind apply a lot of the good feelings from Satisfactory to Sanctum. Makes me wish there were more opportunities to learn to love a game's soundtrack outside of the game before playing it for the first time.
Though I'm not sure it will work for just any game because Sanctum does have one of the best soundtracks.

Diablo 2 OST is an OG IMO. I also spent a lot of time with the Oblivion OST running.
Current favourite is the Tunic OST, and I haven't even played the game (I don't have the patience for "git gud").
chunkystyles 2 points 5 months ago
Don't let the difficulty of TUNIC keep you from the game. There are difficulty sliders in the options menu including god mode.
The game isn't that hard outside of the bosses.
It's one of my top 5 games ever.
The OST is phenomenal, but not something I would listen to outside of the game. For me, it's more atmospheric in the game.
rumschlumpel 2 points 5 months ago
It seems the reduced damage option was added at some point after its release, which might explain why I didn't know about it. Maybe I'll give it a go, then.
Epzillon 2 points 5 months ago
D2 has a special place of nostalgia in my heart. The first games I ever encountered was watching my dad play D2 and Far Cry when I was a kid. Rogue from the D2 OST has been etched into my neural pathways in a way nothing can ever come close to.
JackFrostNCola 3 points 5 months ago
Or Mick Gordans Doom. I havent even played that version of doom but have listened to the OST multiple times.

Not sure what the original poster of the meme (not the op here, but who did the meme originally) is implying. There is, for certain, excellent music in games and also series/movies (originals strictly speaking). Some games I didn't even play but I love to listen to the music because is just that good. Also, a lot of games and TV stuff made sure the more classic approach does have new music, because if we were stuck to the "originals" i would for sure not even touch it.

ZombiFrancis 4 points 5 months ago
I listen to the Disco Elysium soundtrack by Sea Power consistently. It's such a great album in its own right.
lonefighter 4 points 5 months ago
I have a playlist of video game soundtracks playing quietly 24-7. It keeps my cats company when I'm gone and it's nice to have some background noise when I'm home. It's all music I own and there's over a thousand songs in there.
psycotica0 4 points 5 months ago
Outer Wilds, but only when I want to feel a bittersweet melancholy 😅
Console_Modder 4 points 5 months ago
I recently just played Demon Tides and the soundtrack was made by 2 Mello. Good game and good music
Seigest 3 points 5 months ago
As a kid pre internet times I'd take my talk boy (the cassette recorder thing from home alone) and record the soundtracks as they came out of the TV. I'd have to ask my brothers to get to certain parts of the game so I could get that track. The quality was garbage but I could listen to Chrono trigger on the school bus. I'd just have to use imagination to hear as a symphony. No lyrics no playlist but that's about as good as I could get.

But Fierce Battle... https://youtu.be/FqvQ-rfucyc that part at 0:40 is pure frisson. There's a version in 5 and 6. Different compositions though. I like the FF6 version better.
Nobuo loves metal. 🤘
Warl0k3 2 points 5 months ago
Borderlands 3 & Doom 2016 are both great, but I feel like that's slightly unfair since both are explicitly mixed to be albums and use the dynamic atmospheric music from the games as the basis for the songs - none of the tracks actually show up in game as they are on the album (with a couple weird exceptions in borderlands like Digby Vermouth).
As I understand it, pretty much all modern "video game soundtracks" do it the same way - the game's composer writes an album based on the music from the game.
rumschlumpel 2 points 5 months ago
Which is kind of a shame. I actually like a lot of the atmospheric stuff in Doom 2016, the combat music is awesome but I also love having more ambient pieces run for hours.
hardcoreufo 2 points 5 months ago
I played my mom some jazzy ocarina of time covers. She had no idea what she was listening to and she loved it.
Plus bit brigade's mega man 2 album is sick. Mom didn't like that though.

Dark Souls 1 - Firelink shrine is nice to listen to when reading boring work stuff
jtrek 2 points 5 months ago
I remember in high school I was starting to get into music. "Classic rock" from my parents, metal from my cousins, pop punk from other places. Nothing too esoteric. When I was talking about music one day, one of my friends was like "You wanna see my music collection??" I went sure, and he opened it up. All video game soundtracks. Final Fantasy, mostly.
I'm sorry to say that was a young teenager I was a shit and made fun. I wouldn't do that now, but I still feel a little bad about it. I very rarely would pick a video game soundtrack to listen to, but it's such a harmless joy I should've been nicer.
Buddahriffic 2 points 5 months ago
Game OSTs I've gone out of my way to acquire at some point or another:
Diablo II (I think it was specifically the new Tristram song that made me do it, but all the hours I put into that game led to all of them being on my playlist at the time)
FFVII (haven't played the game in decades but I still randomly start humming or singing some of these songs)
Zelda: OOT (same as FFVII but even more so)
Metroid Prime (this game has the genre defining music for lava and winter stages IMO, and if I had to pick a top one, I'd probably pick this one)
Subnautica (this soundtrack was perfect for the game, plus the extra songs you could play in the jukebox were great, and I loved that you could listen to them on the go in the second game)
Sanctum/Satisfactory (they are connected in my mind because playing Satisfactory was where I was first exposed to Sanctum's music)
Risk of Rain (curious if this one would be enjoyed by people who haven't played the games... Anyone willing to do so, listen to The Rain Formerly Known as Purple and let me know if it still sounds awesome without it also meaning you've made it through 4 or so levels to hear it)
Also, honourable mentions for every Guitar Hero and Rock Band game for exposing me to a lot of great non-game music that I hadn't otherwise been exposed to, as well as let me pretend to play along with ones I already loved and gain more tolerance/appreciation for ones I didn't really like before. Green Grass and High Tides and Through the Fire and Flames especially.
And Rocksmith for doing that except with a real guitar and I didn't get as advanced.
