I have a radio station I listen to that specializes in this. But there are some games that work better than others. What first comes to your mind?
“For study” here meaning “to listen to as background music while you are studying?”
I’ve used Satisfactory and Infinifactory’s music for that, both have kind of a “make you feel smart” vibe to them.
Stronghold
Distant Worlds albums are great orchestral versions of Final Fantasy themes. I use them at work when I need to concentrate and block out my peers.
Doom or doom eternal.
How do you study when your entire body is urging you to bang your head to the tune?
Anything from Supergiant Games
I just make a point to remove the songs with lyrics because lyrics distract me.
I listen to the Diablo 2 & 3 or Skyrim OST when reading.
I wrote both my bachelor’s and master’s thesis to Watch The Skies from Skyrim on loop. Yes, the same track all day for weeks.
I use Wh40k: Mechanicus & Ixion
Something I’ve been using during work these days is Maplestory bgm playlists. Reminds me of my youth, and jav a very calming effect on me :)
Depends on a lot of things but for deep focus I like the X3:TC soundtrack
Stellaris is quite good for that
Paradox games are pretty good (Stellaris particularly)
Portal/Portal 2 aswell
Solar 2 is also a personal fav but hard to find OST other than on YT
Crono Cross, anything from monster hunter Tri and up.
Tunic has an excellent soundtrack that’s one of my favorites for work music. https://invidious.reallyaweso.me/watch?v=nnvjKf_mRYM
Stray has a great soundtrack
