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...

Indie games in general have great OSTs, MGS:R and Persona (and SMT in general) are obvious popular picks.

The World Ends With You is less mainstream (with one of the few gripes being the lack of boss-specific themes, at least in the DS original I played - but it makes up with the diverse overworld and normal battle themes), as is Etrian Odyssey.

I think orchestra is mixed, it's either the best fucking tracks ever (even more so mixed with electric guitar), or they kind of blend with other orchestral tracks I know and don't end up being unique enough.

TWEWY is grossly underrated in general, but when it comes to the OST, that's doubly true.

Make's me wonder what they were thinking when they made the anime that was so sparse, even void at times, of all this amazing music they had to work with.

The world needs more TWEWY and Etrian Odyssey love. Great picks.
