Synth music style invented around 30 years ago on technology that didn't exist a generation ago: "This sounds old-fashioned, the developers need to evolve."
Orchestral music played on instruments that have existed for thousands of years, in a style that's existed for hundreds: "Finally, a modern sounding ost!" 
Soundtracls that stand out were fallout, Halo and Diablo 1+2 each fairly unique sounding for their time
Problem with Orchestral is that there are a lot of mid compositions and a lot of the music can be forgetable. Doom 2016s soundtrack was a breath of fresh air at the time along with Warhammer 40k Mechanicus' being a more recent standout
Not that you can't have good Orchestral music, I miss when you would have a little more variety in what you hear and sometimes the soundtrack can be fairly unique because it does something different.
If it's done in an imaginative way I don't mind it at all.
It's the "generic movie soundtrack" stuff I hate. Especially if there's a bunch of Latin chanting for no reason.
Hans Zimmer rip offs
Latin chanting in fantasy settings is always great.

The Mechanicus soundtrack is one of my favorites of all time honestly. Gothic chanting pipe organ EDM wasn't something I knew I needed before I played that game
Same, love the gothic feel of it with pipe organs. Sounds killer on a 2.1 setup with a sub lol
One of these days I'm going to buy a red robe and some incense before sitting down to fix an IT problem, and it's entirely because of this
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Halo had some great tunes, too bad the composer's a chud.
Can't be any worse than Dragon Quest's composer. That soundtrack lives in my head. Too bad the creator wanted people like me merk'd.
HEARTBREAKING: g*mer composer is a g*mer
Many such cases

I've known about the soundtrack since the 90s (I also know of and listened to the inspirations)
