A gaming sub 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.
Dear patient lemmings, I am in need of your help. I'm searching for games that have some GOD DAAMN OSTs and come with a great story or/and gameplay.
Games that tick these requirements for me:
Cyberpunk Bartender Action Va11-Ha11-A The Binding Of Isaac Antibirth Ridge Racer 2 (PSP)
How did you feel about Celeste? It felt pretty hard for me on the first level already. Might pick back up then!
Celeste is hard, but so rewarding! And the OST is stunning
As a 196 regular, it would be a sin not to finish it.
Tough game, but the learning curve isn't too bad. Keep trying and you'll do it 💪
I really enjoy the OST for the Hotline Miami games. If it's your thing it goes pretty hard.
It very much depends on your taste in music, but Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice OST is absolutely amazing, especially considering it's all original scores (I think). After beating the game I put the OST on repeat for several days
I've heard some great reviews about it's story. Did you like it?
A lot: amazing environments and scenery, cool combat with great enemy boss designs, very immersive exploration and the actress did an awesome job throughout it. The "puzzles" bits were a little pain to beat, but everything else was top notch; story was also very cool and made me feel the burden Senua's carrying.
Definitely recommended!
Library of Ruina went nuts with its osts
One time they even patched the game just to buff a boss's music, not even the boss itself
I love the soundtrack of The Talos Principle
Xenoblade 1
Xenoblade X
Xenoblade 2
Xenoblade 3
Incredibile Crisis, on PS1.
Admittedly the story is a bit thin… the game play is purposefully enraging… but it gets a big ol’double check mark on the OST requirement thanks to the Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra.
On a totally different note and tone, Last of Us. I dig anything Gustavo Santaolalla.
Bionic commando remake
All of the doom remakes

Sonic games usually have great music but Sonic Mania in particular is full of bangers, highly recommend it.
Undertale's soundtrack has been memed to death but it's honestly really good.
If you're still in the mood for visual novels the Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney games have some incredible soundtracks too.
Also, for something slower, I must give a shout out to The Sims 1. It's suave as hell and very, very catchy.
Honestly can't argue. Undertale's OST is really great, even though it's been memed a lot.
I absolutely loved Pokemon USUM‘s OST and was heartbroken when I found out the OST release was just like 1 minute long tracks that you couldn‘t easily loop (obviously it looped infinitely ingame)
I don't see this mentioned enough, but persona 5 (specifically recommend persona 5 Royal) has a really great OST. As you play the game you unlock better versions of the same tracks, including vocals. It's actually really jazzy, and quite catchy! The wife and i will jam to the vocal tracks on road trips.
The game is also very good, with an interesting story! It's kinda weird in a fun way! It's like.. a pokemon-esque turn based jrpg with some like real world maintenance aspects (relationships, work a job, go to school), with great music
Yeah I really loved Persona 5. It really stands out as an unique an catchy game.
The Elder Scrolls series if you haven't played already, battlefield 1, Terraria, Cave Story, The Ori series
