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.

The man has been working since the mid 80s and he's in his 60s.

Just let the man retire in peace

Sure, he's probably tired and deserving to retire. But what about me?

Nobody is stopping you from wanting to compose a whole game.
