Now, in a new interview with German publication Zeit Online ahead of a performance of his new orchestral show Merregnon: Heart of Ice, Uematsu said he thinks his days of composing full video game soundtracks are over.
Asked if he ever felt that one day nostalgia could take over and convince him to write an entire soundtrack for a game again as opposed to just a main theme, Uematsu replied that he didn’t see it happening.
He could have retired after FF6 and it would’ve been an illustrious career. But he’s been pretty much retired from whole game scores since he started working with Mistwalker as far as I can tell. Enjoy that Hawaii business.
