Favourite music track in a PC rpg?

KOTOR 1 & 2 being the only RPGs I've really played

 

 

My condolences.

 

Well, RPGs aren't always what I go for.

 

Tell you a good music track from a none-RPG game though - Slow Blades, from Operation Flashpoint.

That's semi related by the fact that the sequel will (apparently) be effectively an RPG...and a war sim...but by simulating the war, it gives it large RPG traits. Or something.

 

LBA 1&2 had some great music, though I suppose that was just an adventure game rather than an RPG

Haha, one the comes off the top of my head is the bar run by the Malkavian twins in Bloodlines.

 

 

It's rave type music which I typically don't care for, but I felt it fit the situation so perfectly.

 

Same goes for some of the Lucky Money music in Deus Ex.

 

I also liked the Jenova fight music (and the boss fight music in general) of Final Fantasy 7.  I can still play the fight music flawlessly in my head, despite not playing the game since like 1999 or so :D).

 

 

That's an actual licensed song actually. I know because I ripped the MP3s out of the game files so I could play them out of game. Cursed by Morgoth apparently. I liked Cain by Tiamat more though personally (song that plays in the Asp Hole).

 

Deionarra's theme really resonates with me somehow. Gave me chills the first few times I head it and I still remember it.

 

All the music in Beyond Good & Evil is really awesome, especially the song that plays inside the Akuda Bar. Most awesome thing is that they made up their own 'language' in the music for the game, that's a mixture of different Earthen languages where the end result is it's thouroughly confusing to just about everyone what it's talking about.

 

What was really weird is I was at the Wild Animal Park in San Diego, and they were playing the opening/credits music from that game during their Bird Show. :blink:

Some of the music from SW: JK: Jedi Academy, the part on Tatooine where the PC fights through sandpeople while heading towards the sandcrawler. (Wasn't too rushed)

Deep from within...

Some see salvation as an act of God, a few look within for it.

I really liked alot of the music from the first Splinter Cell game.

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

Torment - Deionarra's Theme

The main theme in Deus Ex is really good.

Some music from Gothic 2 really suit the game well and gave me goosebumps when I first heard it, but I have no idea what the tunes were called.

The tune being Isolated by Emileigh Rohn, a.k.a., Chiasm, from Disorder.

 

And the tune was indeed fantastically atmospheric in the club. The entire club's aesthetic was incredible. A masterpiece of gameworld set design.

The Downtown theme from Bloodlines is like the background swing of the game. I love it.

The entire IWD/HoW soundtrack rocks mah socks.

 

If I had to pick one song from it, it'd be a toss up between the theme for the final visit to Easthaven (

when it is controlled by Belhifet and the Shard

) or the svirfneblin village's theme (hell the entire Dorn's Deep musical score, even). Those two really resonate with me.

 

I also really loved the Candlekeep theme from Baldur's Gate.

Well, there was one track you could roughly call metal. It was played in the lave caverns before descending to hell. But everything was made by one man; Matt Uelmen. There was no "them"
