As I said in the post, this is my favorite game ever. I played it when I was a teenager and it completely blew me away. The start was interesting, but quickly I noticed it becoming more and more beautiful and moving. The moment when your sliding down and the camera turns sideways with the sun making the sand look gold is honestly one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen in my life. I played in 3 sittings, really savoring every moment. When you’re walking slowly in the ice cold ending stretch I became really emotional and the feeling of catharsis when you start the actual final part was insane. I was silently crying the whole time during that section.
Love the multiplayer aspect also. And the music is insane. I saw it performed live in my city last year and was able to speak to Austin Wintory and get his autograph.

I am so fucking jealous you’ve heard the ost live.
An orchestral performance cannot be captured by any kind of recording in way that does it justice.

Seconding this, that would be a quasi-religious experience for me considering my feelings towards the soundtrack.
