Why does Japan put so much SOUL into their video game soundtracks? Show me one western game with a good soundtrack

I would rather have soul in real life than live in a society of soulless bugmen.

Pretty much everything Jesper Kyd does qualifies regardless of how good the game it is attached to is.

This unironicly.
You're a fucking retard.

Can't be bothered to divide by country like a tribal fag, just going to see what's from where on my list with comfy embed tags, and fix the broken ones

Touché, weeb fuck.

I don't care what anyone says marty o'donnels's halo is one of the top 5 best western game osts

Oblivion. Skyrim, and FC 4 all had amazing soundtracks

Assassin's Creed 2
Black Flag

great western soundtracks.

>You're a fucking retard.
>He thinks his opinion matters when he thinks Dark Souls is an JRPG
I can't stop laughing at you lol!

>SOUL
Stop using this word say thought or effort

any troves or megas of soundtracks left these days, or is it all grabbing them off youtube?

I liked Driver: San Francisco's soundtrack. It really fits the whole "70's-ish" aesthetic that they were going for. The main theme in particular sounds dope.

I agree though, on average Jap games have better soundtracks than western games.

>OoT youtu.be/bAMzIihPjAg

That was done by Kenji Kondo, a Japanese composer. You're supposed to be listing western composed soundtracks.

Japan has been masters at game music before some of the zoomers on here were even born, there was no hope for the west to catch up.

FTL, Wolfenstein TNH, DOOM (All of them), Portal 1 and 2, to name a few you mega-faggot.

Everything Blizzard did prior to D3

Did you ironically list SotC as a western soundtrack?

Absolutely based post

>Dead Rising is a japanese game because was published by Capcom

No it's a generic list of some personal nostalgia or just ones I've liked
Dividing based on country would be fucking pointless, the split is mainly just pacing/intensity

>ZERO niggers
They have a ton of Somalis trying to scam people in the shabby neighbourhoods

Forgive the loads of links, just wanted to post some of my favorite examples I could think of. I love my moonrune games as much as the next lad, but Western games can have plenty great soundtracks. Arguing over shit like this is dumb.
