A commenter on YT identified this great track I was searching for!  It's from Castlevania Dracula X OST: Stage 5' Picture of a Ghost Ship:

 

 

Get yourself the PC Engine version of that soundtrack.

Went phenomenally hard

Braid has a pretty nice soundtrack! I suppose it's style is a little classical, but it sets a great mood.

Going in another direction, Life is Strange has a nice soundtrack too. You have Jonathan Morali's sweet guitar, and then there's Daughter writing heavy impact music for Before The Storm (song like, but not quite):

A few months ago I discovered the Moonlighter Soundtrack (I've never played the game) and I fell in love. While all music gets old when you overlisten to it (which I did), I still appreciate this song, my favorite one from the OST:

I like how this song can evoke such a brave and exploratory emotion with mostly diatonic harmony. I have been one to overobsess over fancy chromatic harmony, and this song has proven that amazing things can be done with diatonic harmony. From my knowledge, the only borrowed chord is the V chord, which is expected.
