Today we will discuss which games should win our award for "Best Music", who should win our "Gingers Don't Have Souls" award for the most egregious piece of race-swapping.
Please consider what you would like to argue should be the winning item for each of the passing categories.
Additionally, consider who you would like to nominate as your electors. You may choose 3 electors to cast votes for you on your behalf. Persuade them as necessary. You may choose yourself once. The top 12 most nominated electors will assemble as our electoral tribunal, and will vote on the final categories. Feel free to message me directly with your nomination, or comment your nominations publicly. The electors are allowed to vote their own conscience.
^ No but seriously, we're just about out of categories to deliberate

Was it Netflix's The Witcher that had all the redheads turned black? That's my nomination.
Triss is described as having “chestnut” hair or something in the books and is a straight up redhead in the game. Definitely one of my biggest disappointments in that series.
Anagram replacement in action.
Doesn't make any difference to me, go ahead and nominate it.
That's fucking intense.
I can see why your favorite is that way for a reason.
Honestly, the scores for Hades and Helltaker are much more "in tune" with the Gameplay. But I'm sorry, if I'm gonna battle a god damned dragon, I want to be listening to Two Steps from Hell while I'm doing it. And that's basically what's going on, but it's like they through 3 or 4 orchestras at the dragon.
Can we nominate games from a few years ago? If so, Best Music: Hollow Knight.

I'm not gonna stop you.
Nominating Doom Eternal for best music.
The soundtrack fits the atmosphere and gameplay like a glove, and it works just fine on its own.
Wanna nominate Mechanicus since it blew up with Mandalore's vid in march but came out 2018, wanna nominate Lobotomy Corp because that also had a playable update that redid the entire English translation this year but that's also 2018 so fug it, Library of Ruina for best sound track. Not only do you have the main floor BGM:

But you've got individual floors like Yesod with their own battle theme:
Goes up in intesnsityt
And then you've got remixes that fit perfectly to other songs. It's a really good OST.
Lone Digger
Party Rock
Malcute breathing exercises
Video it came from
It's either that or Wasteland 3 that had a few stand out tracks, mostly a Wang Chung cover and Monster Mash.
Used when you kill the cannibal cowboys
Flab the Inhaler Blah.
I swear if I have to hear blood of the lamb again, I'm gonna kill something.
Just makes me wanna kill
Do you want to post any links to the music?
Sure.
Theme 2
Malcute
Yesod
Hod
Tiphereth
Chesod
Gebura, fits for a woman who's died twice and was pissed at Binah for betraying her.
Thanks
At the risk of seeming like a fanboy (I already nominated it for Best Hack&Slash and plan to nominate it for Game of the Year), I'd like to nominate Hades for Best Music.
Just listen to Orpheus and Eurydice's duet. One of the best songs in any video game ever.
It's got tons of quality music, including In the Blood. I think it deserves a nod.
Edit: How could I have forgotten the Lament of Orpheus?
Do you have a link for the electors to listen to?
Indeed, I included two links, but I just added a third.
