Does any game have ambient music as good as Fallout 1 and 2?

How does 4 compare?
4 has some okay tracks. Not as memorable as 1 or 2.
>Dat futuristic tone in the f2 ost
Never played, might play now
One of the highlights of 4 is its atmospheric tracks. I think it's on par with one and two

OP here, didn't Fallout NV take some tracks directly from 1?
Someone posted Arcanum's soundtrack in the thread.
Shit's raw, string quartet.

We get that /v/ must hate everything Fallout 4 for reasons, but that doesn't take away from what the game does well.

But I don't think it does it that well. I usually just end up tuning to the radio. There is a nice suspense track they do for underground areas but it gets very annoying very quickly for me after the first couple minutes.
haven't even played this but the music gets posted sometimes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LHLAcd14b4
Fallout 1 and 2 had such amazing soundtracks, never thought music alone could help with atmosphere so much until I played them.

His notes for that are cool.
>One very important aspect of Arcanum is that the player may choose to follow a path of good or evil. For this reason, I purposefully avoided writing a sweeping, heroic title theme. Instead, I tried to make the theme morally ambiguous, almost tragic (for Arcanum can be a world of hardship), yet epic (which truly describes the vast scope of Arcanum). I've tried to suggest several things without committing to a single interpretation. I also think a slower, more pensive theme is appropriate to the thoughtful nature and pace of a role-playing game.
