That was the point.

But yeah, there are other games this year that I would pick for better audio before Zelda.

Oh I'm not bashing it or anything, just saying that the soundtrack didn't really stand out to me since it was quiet for the most part. Can't really say what I'd pick for best audio though since I'm still not caught up with my backlog, currently playing 2015-2016 games, lol. 

Agreed, sick of these games that have almost no standout tracks winning best audio or ost.  There should be two categories for this but if we’re combining both the soundtrack is far more important.  Most games these days unfortunately have forgettable soundtracks.Its been a horrible trend since around 2010. It’s also easy af to make pure atmosperical minimalistic tracks in comparison to melodic or progressive songs.  

 

Edit: not saying games can’t be pleasantly immersive or anything with a minimalist ost, but even using the old “but those other games like p5 and nier have that same old jrpg style of tracks” isn’t a good point against the quality of their respective songs. 

If the songs fit in their world very well alongside yourself wanting to listen to their tracks outside the game then you have yourself a great ost.  The more variety plus quality the better too.
