By vignette, I mean a little ambient scene thats probably infinitely looped that you could leave on the screen and just let play on and on as an ambient scene that is enjoyable despite not progressing or changing. The background music is a huge part of it but it can also be said that the combined music and video/visual is greater than the sum of either part

    I remember sitting and watching the stars or scenery when Oblivion first came out. There are a couple nice spots overlooking meadows or lakes where things are peaceful.

    Also watching the sun rise in Hyrule field in Ocarina of Time. Although, that could have also been relief that the field was becoming safe.

    Overlooking Lake Hyrule in Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess was also nice.
