The Best of GW2 OST
I couldn’t agree more on “Fear Not This Night” . That song alone made the soundtrack worth buying . The GW sound tracks are kind that can make you stand in a zone or town just for the track that plays . You don’t get that with other games .

And I’m still shocked they havn’t put the original piano version of the song on the OST. I found the original to be better. Sad.
Absolutely, Jeremy Soule is my favorite videogame music composer. I often play games he makes soundtracks for just to hear his beautiful music, even if the game is bad his music is so atmospheric it sucks me in to that world.
My favorite tracks from GW2 so far are:
The Shiverpeaks – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qT5_g8ZvceE
The Seraph – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qT5_g8ZvceE
The first track plays in any Shiverpeaks area (including HoTW) and in LA during Wintersday while not in combat.
The second one plays during the bossfight with the Supreme Eye of Zhaitan.
I also like how they still kept a lot of the GW1 songs in the game although I miss some of them like Crystal Oasis. These are my favorite tracks from GW1.
Crystal Oasis – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oFGagjD18o
Tasca’s Demise – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUQFBzUoQxY
Ashford Abbey – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Mc0OSVrhoE
Temple of Tolerance – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIt6Ko5djrY
Nightfall Theme – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vihVoxiqMg
Festival of Lyss – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7SlEEPhEWA
March Through Norrhart – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyM5Pn_UkIk
- First Light – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FBuxs6oxZ4
- First Light is a bonus track which plays in Pre-Searing near Fort Ranik and is only available if you have a specific version of Prophecies.
Since you mentioned Skyrim here are some of my favorite Elder Scrolls tracks as well ;p
The Streets of Whiterun – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo3VAltxlr8
Under an Ancient Sun – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP1V9jDDQt0
Minstrel’s Lament – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5gqkPYWMZs
Auriel’s Ascension – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i68-mIovB8
Morrowind Explore 7 – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geZcwEo6wik
Finally some of his music from Harry Potter games, which went largely unnoticed because the games themselves weren’t that good.
Happy Hogwarts – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oelDCr3P7yk
Wander Rain – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9gYSBWDNRU
Wander Snow – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mudm4YgdHk4
Follow Rain – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViTq_CbXQqY
Spell Atmos – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnw7pRmF3YU
I hope Anet improve the custom soundtracks feature so we can retain the default GW2 music while adding more music to the game and having more control over what plays where and when, I’d like to add all of these tracks to GW2
