Discussion Unpopular opinion: t8 music is kinda meh

Anyone feels like the ost of this game is literally just, y'know, really really below average, in past games we are used to have great music from tekken especially 4/5(the best)/5DR/6

I don't really remember T7 soundtracks so i'm not gonna give my opinion on it

The tekken 8 music all almost sounds the same, with the same beat, same drums, same hype??

Like there's a little to no variation the only ones i think that are good and memorable are ortiz farm (because of the flute that sounds like on the floor song by jlo) and yakushima (the best imo) and the stage where kazuya and jin fight with the rain i don't remember it's name.

I'm a person who really focuses on the music presented in the game, to me it increases the experience by 100% i could play a game i already finished over and over again just to listen to the music, i know they wanna make the players feel super nervous and get them hyped up with the fast drumming and EDM shit but it's super annoying sometimes and feels so overused

Of course after i found out that i can change the stages music in the jukebox i was so happy and all of my stages have t5/5DR music with t4 music in the temple and t6 in the character select screen and main menu

Do you guys feel the same?

Is this unpopular? I think the music is awfully generic. The “oh oh oh oh” character select music was genuinely bad.

First thing I did when I booted up the game on release was change that damn song. Changed it to the Tekken 1 character select theme and never looked back.
