The Worst Video Game OST You've Ever Heard

Destacado
Warcraft 3 Human theme.
It's not a bad theme per se, still that early 00s Blizzard magic, but it's easily the weakest theme against the other three and when you spectate a game, it defaults to Human. It still blares on in Warcraft 3 replays and casts to this day and it just sucks the much better other themes don't get play. The wc2 ost was way better for humans.

Meanwhile Brood wars three races themes have never ever gotten old to me after so much repetition. They actually improve starcraft 2 they're that good
 
Zelda Breath of the Wild's low effort piano wankery has to be the most egregious example I can think of. It doesn't take a lot for an OST to pass my low quality standards but Nintendo decided a dude playing piano on fruity loops while half asleep was good enough.
From what I hear they didn't even bother fixing it with the sequel.

Not all of the game's music is like that, I'm guessing you mean the ambience in most of the open world. I can see what you mean. Then theres this:
It's just a mixed bag.

Used to love this OST as an edgy teen. Had a few tracks come up on Spotify in my "discover weekly" not to long ago, and my word was that a hard listen. "All Of Me" is ok, but thats the most praise I can give it. Everything else on that soundtrack is legit painful to listen to because of cringe overload. "Live and Learn" is still bangin', even if my opinion on SA2 has turned to distain.


Thread tax: While not a "bad" soundtrack, its so "meh" that I can't remember a single piece. That would be Panzer Dragoon. The art direction and graphics are beautiful (especially the remaster), but the game also has a crippling lack of content and no real mechanics beyond "basic rail shooter", which isn't helped by the music being so mediocre you don't even remember it. I can't name a "bad" OST off the top of my head, but that seems to be because they're fairly rare. Most games either have good sountracks, or a mediocre one, nowhere near the same amount of examples exist for outright bad soundtracks.

In hindsight, I'm not sure why I put that here since it seems harsh. It's more corny than truly awful.
