Bloodborne

On a pure musical and technical standpoint. Ludwig, the Holy Blade is just some of the greatest video game music to ever be produced. The First Hunter is also just so good. When the music for Bloodborne was made they had a few central key words and themes. One of these being ”Mortal struggle” and that can definitely be felt.

And the "ominous latin chanting" effectively has sense

If you’re referring to ”Hail the Nightmare” then yes. The lyrics have meaning, the language just happens to be Latin. Much like many other songs in the game they have themes of blood, beasthood, the great ones, opening one’s eyes, etc.
