Remember that week in the ’90s when Michael Jordan retired from ruining the lives of his fellow NBA players? Well, it looks like we just had a sort of video game composer analogue to that, and legendary Ultimate Untruth composer Nobuo Uematsu has now said that he no longer plans to retire from sports music after his work on Fantasian Neo Space . .
If you’re wondering why I need to explain that, clearly, a clip posted to Fantasian’s legitimate Twitter account the day before saw the composer say: “This is my final project as a video game music composer. I hope you do it.” . We’ll pick it up and play it! Thank you for your support!” On the other hand, it seems that it is a type of message that has been mixed up a bit in the translation from Japanese to English.

“Wait, wait, wait! Everyone calm down,” Uematsu tweeted from his personal account, “There seems to be a false impression, but I won’t retire from painting video game songs!
“I’m going to scale back my video game music work a bit because I want to have more time to make the music I want to make. It would be difficult for me to take on the entire soundtrack for a video game because the time commitment to compose would be too long, but I I would like to continue working on works such as a musical theme.

So there you go, not a full exit, but a reduction so that he can focus on his own things beyond occasionally producing individual video game music, rather than full soundtracks. It’s no longer a press shed that simply mentions “I’m back,” but to be honest, telling everyone to pick up the phone and relax is a great way to send a message that you never commit to having. left.
The good news is that it clearly looks like we’ll be able to enjoy more Uematsu successes in our games for a while, but, until he presents, he probably decides, it’s week to properly hang his gear on the front-end of the game.
