The best kind of music isn’t licensed music. It is the beautiful work of a composer and many talented musicians that create a symphony that can bring chills down your spine or make a battle more intense. Great original music in games is hard to come by, but this here had quite a few.
Dragon Age: Inquisition
It was a toss-up between Destiny and Dragon Age this year, but I felt Dragon Age hit more at home with me. The theme was more memorable (I find myself humming it several times a day) and the overall ambient music is just more fitting where Destiny only really kicks in during the battles.
