Try european power metal, then. And AMIGA-style soundtracks.
Also (in the trails of AMIGA tracks) "Emperor:Battle for Dune"; It has a great OST, especially the Harkonnen themes

This is about as epic as my collection gets:

Not counting all those Pink Floyd albums. (The Wall might be the most epic thing ever)

Swissy88: Necro'd by a bot, shocker.
Thought this thread might actually be good game music, but instead it's normie 6 hour mixes, smh.
Darksiders II - The Guardian Theme

WARHAMMER 40k: Gladius - Main Theme

Mass Effect 2 - Suicide Mission

Better?

Here. Your profile title made me think of NIN, so have a remix by the fellow that did the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. soundtracks

Only Triptych

JinseiNGC224: One genre that I've been addicted to for the past couple of years is what is generally referred to as Epic. It may have "epic trailer music" attached to it, or "epic motivation", or "powerful", "inspiring", or "beautiful". A lot of the songs I relish over and over tend to be very loud. A lot of the music is very modern, but it mixes so much classic with new I cannot put it down.
The 'epic music' i tend to hear/think of gets tiring after a couple hours.

Though going over some of the music you listed, looks more like 'easy listening', especially when you have it turned to a medium/low volume so it's more relaxing and less.... energetic.

There was this thing going around a couple of years back. One song I clearly remember mixed up work from the artist WLOP and this epic/emo track from 2 steps of hell called Star Sky. At least it came up pretty often back then, used in all kinds of formats.

Also, for more formulaic but energetic, engaging music:
Antti Martikainen, Yasuharu Takanashi, Adrian Ziegler. There's also Miracle of Sound, that makes great trailer-like videos complete with his own music kinda promoting video game franchises and iconic videogame characters/settings

The Who, also. I'd like a full, flamboyant animation series of some of their albums. That would work!

If you like classical, there's Musorgskiy,
and of course, we're on GoG, so you can listen to Thronebreaker OST that was free for a while some months ago. Always underrated

PS: I forgot the "grandfather" of modern epic music: John Williams!

Thanks for the tip, also, now I know where Hans Zimmer's sounds (the epithome of this style of "epic soundtracks") come from
