the more button mashy and lazy you are… the music will reflect that and be boring, like how you’re playing
but the more stylish and extra you go in completing arranged combos, blocks, and finishers, the game will reward you with the soundtrack befitting your excellence
The reviewers didn’t understand this aspect of the game and rated it as having lackluster music…. because they didn’t play the game as you’re supposed to and just drudged through it or straight up failed at doing anything right
and people were making jokes a few months ago when the Dynamic Music feature was confirmed that Journos would rate the game bad for shitty music because they were shitty at playing it
