I've thought about nominating the Celeste OST and/or the Sayonara Wild Hearts OST before, but besides both being more closely composed for their games' contexts than most OSTs, they each have their own awkward aspects for this series.

Celeste's OST has some potential crossover appeal from the game's VGM renown, but its 99-minute length (referring to the designated OST only) is conversely a concern, considering our history with and past comments on albums over ~60 minutes outside this board's wheelhouse.

Sayonara Wild Hearts' OST is short enough to work well, but it's comprised of a minority of mostly short, lyrics-centric pop songs sprinkled among a number of typically even shorter instrumentals. And the OST's tracklist pretty much bundles up all the former and all the latter in discrete batches, departing from the game's own order in the process.
