I'm working on two massive playlists of RPG music that I feel has an "RPG sound" to it, one "chippy" and the other not, and I'm looking for some that I maybe haven't heard yet or have forgotten about.

Any other suggestions?

I already see a few I'm missing (like the Final Fantasy remakes), but I haven't gotten to those yet. :)

I guess this could also serve as another "recommendations" thread, if we're doing game genres. (I'd also like to do another thread like this for shooters, if there isn't one already.)

[arthurgolden]

Lots of worthy ones not on there yet, but I'll start with the SNES since that's one of my favorites consoles.

Bahamut Lagoon
Brain Lord
E.V.O.: Search for Eden
Front Mission
Lufia & the Fortress of Doom
Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals
Mystic Ark
Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen
Robotrek
Soul Blazer
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Tactics Ogre
Treasure Hunter G

I've already suggested you Rebus, over at VGMdb (glad you found tracks you enjoyed in that one)… Maybe you can find stuff to enjoy also within Wild ARMs and La Pucelle: Tactics, but it's been a while since I've listened to their music, personally, I offer my apologies in advance, in case they don't work.

[Evil Akuma]

Well, what I'd like to do one day is turn other similar playlists I have into a sort of VGM radio station or podcast or whatever works these days. I really want to broaden my horizons on how an RPG actually -did- sound in whatever era, as well as having a very strong "RPG feel" to them and give the station a "sound", you know? So if that helps anyone with ideas, keep adding them and I'll keep listening and adding. :D

arthurgolden: I've actually added a few of your ideas already (Mystic Ark, the Lufias, a few others) and hope to listen to more some time tonight.

Leon Scott Kennedy: Rebus was just the kind of thing I was looking for. I recently discovered Shining Wind has some great "RPG sound" to it. I was actually wondering how no one had suggested Wild Arms yet, honestly. (I certainly see it all over the place in vgm places.)

[Abramelin]

For non-bittunes, i would add: Heroes of Might & Might 3 and 5, the various World of Warcraft soundtracks, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, Warhammer 40K Space Marine, Shadow of the Colossus, Darkest Dungeon, Lara Croft & Temple Osiris, Odin Sphere Leiftrasir, land of Lore 2, God eater, Lair, Diablo 2,

This^ sort of thing would be amazing. I remember searching for VGM podcasts and found nothing of quality. I also whole-heartedly second adding the Super Mario RPG OST... :)

[Azetlor]

RuneScape.
I know there's over 1,000 tracks but I have no idea how I'm going to acquire them in any chronological-ish order.
