I was going through my library and "Kaer Morhen" from Witcher 3 sounded familiar...

"Peaceful Moments" from Witcher:

I'm not crazy. :roll:

Both are excellent songs but I prefer the upbeat nature of Peaceful Moments over Kaer Morhen.

In all fairness, it sounds like absolute crap on Youtube. But play this song out fully in the actual title screen in-game, and that bit where the extra instruments come in will also gain volume that is NOT normalized. When you hear it like that... legendary. Still cold shivers. Playing DA:I some months ago I found myself stuck in title screen for 5 minutes...more than once :D


Also, this. All of it


This is also in my top 10 - again, (almost) all of it.. But if you don't have an hour, skip to 31:10


Nuff said - with music like this, I could scan planets all day...matter of fact I did

Last but not least - if you finished this game, I'm quite certain you will be close shedding a tear or two

It's actually called "Dragon Age Inquisition Theme"
Trevor Morris is by far the best composer they had on Dragon Age.

You might like "A Dangerous Course" also by Jack Wall from Into the Stars:
Video repeats the song half way through for some reason. It's only about 3:39 long.

Oh yes! I do like that!

lol.. surprised you like that one. I drove people crazy because they could hear it in my room as I scanned.

This tune reminds me a lot of this, using very minor variations and building atmosphere. And I find its capacity to keep looping and not bore you to death at ANY point (for me at least) quite fascinating. It takes some real good composing to achieve this. Its also nice how both songs reward you for having a good sound system - so rich in detail. Take special note as well of this tune's length...

It's old school, but seems to have gone unmentioned in this thread; Crystalis for the NES. Excellent soundtrack for it's day!

You can not leave out Final Fantasy 6;
The opening sequence alone is magnificent! In my book, sheer musical bliss..
Of course then there's;
My favorite game of all time and my favorite OST of all time. IMHO; perfection!
And we can't mention those two masterpieces without mentioning another;

FF VI is AWESOME, but I've played that so much that I've got bored to that OST, sorry. :(

I hated X-2 as a teen, but now when I'm almost 30, I just love it. This track is one of the reasons.
