After reading some posts, I haven't seen anyone who talks about RPG soundtracks, so...
Which are your favorite RPG soundtracks? Share it
>>

The Last Remnant, SaGa Frontier and Dragon Quest 6 are my top three soundtracks.
>>
I have a few soundtracks, mostly squaresoft stuff. I think the most surprising soundtrack was Age of Conan, that music is top tier.

the Ultima RPGs in their entirely, too many tracks to list but from Ultima III onwards they are superb

As far as RPGS go that have more than 5 tracks i like (because there wouldn't be an end otherwise, lots of great tracks all over):

Final Fantasy X as a whole had staying power

Ys chronicles i also listen to no matter how many years pass

Might and Magic 6/7/8, and maybe even more than that, all have really good soundtracks, and it's more interesting to know that the guy who did the music is a massive autismo, so that kind of makes it more endearing.
>>
I think Lamplighters is Jon Everist's best work but that isn't remotely an RPG so I'll pick Shadowrun Hong Kong

I have a spreadsheet tracking my favorite tracks and their composers.

My most favorite OST is far and away World of Warcraft. Too many favorite tracks throughout, can't pin a particular standout composer. The OST peaks in the Cata through WoD era but there are some good tracks in the expansions after. Dragonflight had a lot of good tracks in the latest patch.

Aselia the Spirit of Eternity Sword: OST and Arrange album
Final Fantasy X OST, mainly the tracks by Uematsu. Some of the remastered tracks are good.

FF11's soundtrack.

Suikoden 1 & 2's soundtrack by Miki Higashino, and some of the arrange albums.

Granblue Fantasy's soundtrack by Tsutomu Narita and Nobuo Uematsu.

Nihon Falcom's music for Ys, Xanadu, Vantage Master, Trails, etc.

There are others I like but those are the biggest OSTs I love.

Romero wasn't the only one, King's contributions are great too.

Modern gamewise, I like Octopath's OST, especially II.
https://youtu.be/TfKTmoDxVNA
https://youtu.be/am9XOGZFPco
https://youtu.be/dTAvTr2uiwA (Also shout out to how each character's leitmotif segues into the battle theme or how their leitmotifs are remixed and added to the track for the second phase of their end-of-tale bosses.

As for something older, I just started playing YS 1 with a PC-Engine soundtrack mod and god, do I love Falcom's PC-Engine soundtracks.
