Hollow Knight, though I don't really listen to it outside the game.
Cyberpunk has some great songs on the radio.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Anything handled by Nobou Uematsu.
Bit dated, but at the time Descent II’s Redbook sountrack was pretty good for ‘96.
Unreal Tournament 2004 is my favorite OST by number of tracks that I love. It has several absolute banger tracks, like Morpheus3, Hyperblast-Redux, Convoy, Atlantis and Level11. I often keep a number of those tracks on my playlists.
Although I don't like the game itself much (I suck at it), Cloudbuilt also has some awesome tracks, my personal favorite is Aurora. The guitar chords at the apex is just heavenly.
Rebel Galaxy has some very nice stuff to feel like a 'merican space cowboy, it's mostly licensed music as far as i can tell.
Assault Android Cactus usually gets your blood pumping hard, which is great because the game is a pretty fun twin-stick arena. The tracks Assault and Licorice are just 👨🍳😙👌
... Come to think of it, looking at my list, I'm a real sucker for sci-fi OSTs, huh. I do want to make honorable mentions to Mass Effect (mostly 2), Skyrim and Smash Bros. Ultimate
- Shovel Knight
- Chrono Trigger
- Unreal Tournament 99
- Quake II
All you young'uns and your fancy moderns music.
Nothing beats Gone Jackals songs in Full Throttle.
Hard pick because I listen to a game or series for a while, then another. Just today I went and listened to a lot of Sonic tracks, which I do once every few months. I guess Atlus games (SMT, Persona, EO), Metal Gear Rising, Ace Attorney, TWEWY are in the lead off the top of my head, but after a month I might give a different answer. My relaxing music playlist is mostly the official classical arrangements of Etrian Odyssey 1+2, so let's go with that.
Minecraft
Nier Automata
Subnautica
The Sims 2
Aquaria: Original Soundtrack

Such an underrated game. RIP Alec.
Love the Towerfall OST myself, it was such a shock to hear about him.
Morrowind and project wingman are peak. FFXIV is fantastic with a persistent leitmotif across each entire expansion. The final endwalker boss basically wrapped up YEARS worth of story and that fight music was a medly featuring every expansion's leitmotif and holy shit I can't get over how incredible it was. Also the pandaemonium raid music. And Alexander. Seriously you can rabbit hole for HOURS on FFXIV music.

I suspect I'm driven by nostalgia and by literally hundreds of hours of repeat exposure.
