Personally, I'm a huge fan of Hollow Knight, Ori and the (Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps), and Kingdom Hearts. Orchestral soundtracks are just something else...

It's Skyrim for me. Growing up I've never played any games (because GiRLs DoN't GaMe) but I've heard some of Jeremy Soul's Skyrim tracks on YouTube and was completely enchanted. Learned that it is from the game, decided to try and now I'm a gamer, lol.

Oh, and also the main theme of Dragon Age: Origins is just divine. And honorary mention to Mass Effect and Witcher music too.

Jeremy Soule also wrote the Oblivion soundtrack too. I find some of his songs there to be just as good, if not better, than his work on Skyrim.

He definitely has the golden touch for atmospheric environmental, almost otherworldly ambiance.

Yeah, I know! I've played Oblivion eventually, too.

It's just that Skyrim OST was what introduced me into gaming and for that reason it has a special place in my heart.
