Right off the bat, the interweaving melodies caught my attention! Really makes me think of the Hollow Knight OST as well as Breath of the Wild! Very high level composition and good mixing. I'd love to know what VSTs you use!

Thank you! I'm glad you have mentioned Hollow Knight. It is definitely the kind of game I would love to score one day!!!!
For the VSTs, nothing fancy: Spitfire mostly(chamber strings and tundra, symphonic woodwinds for horn solo), Cello solo in the 1st track is obviously good ol' Tina Guo lol. Pianoteq for piano, and for woodwinds melody line I just used the playback of noteperformer plugin of Sibelius. It does convincing legatos and phrasing without the necessity to program CCs, although the sound itself sounds less real compared to sampled library. I use it for woodwinds sometimes especially when i'm running out of time(I'm also way more comfortable with music notation than DAWs). Randy's prepared piano(finger mute in 2nd track and nail pizz on 3rd), Native instrument Noire piano for particle effect on the 3rd track. Temple block from Kontakt's factory library I believe, and chris heins solo viola and cello for effects in 2nd track. I think that's about it.
Oh, the 'pad' thing in 2nd track is also from Tundra(woodwinds).
