Favourite game music? (kbin.social)

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.

Favorite instrumental soundtrack themes are from the early Silent Hill games. The theme from SH1 and the Theme of Laura from SH2 are classics.

Favorite lyrical songs used within the game for plot: Alan Wake has characters in it who are 70s rock gods called Old Gods of Asgard, and the creators got a group named Poets of the Fall to actually write the two songs that were featured from the game and they are actually really great songs. Poet and the Muse is a plot point and Children of the Elder God is played during a really good sequence.

Ori and the Blind Forest

The Messenger has amazing music harkening back to the 8 and 16bit stuff from the MegaMan games. Underrated game in general too.

Ori and the Blind Forest + Will of the Wisps, hands down

Edit: behind the scenes soundtrack

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)

Diablo IV has a killer soundtrack.

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