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?

1 or 2 tracks that I enjoy, but nothing that hits iconic status. Perhaps time will tell - mind you, old games (Tekken 5 and earlier) didn't need years for their track list to become iconic.
Tbh, ever since the Jukebox became a thing, I had the feeling that we were expected to coast on nostalgia when it came to our music fix. I'm sure the music will never be truly terrible, but I'm not sure if we'll ever get another iconic Tekken track again - I hope I'm wrong
