La del Final Fantasy X la hizo a medias, pero pff, desde que Uematsu trabaja por su cuenta sus temas dejan bastante que desear, la que se puede escuchar en FFXIV en las peleas es una basura bajo mi opinión, hay un monton de artistas al nivel de Uematsu o mejores, dentro de SE hay unos cuentos y fuera tambien, como Motoi Sakuraba de los Tales of, Hitoshi Sakimoto de Valkyria Chronicles o Kō Ōtani que este especialmente me parece que fulmina a cualquier otro (es el de Shadow of the Colossus).
Uematsu tuvo su epoca, pero desde que no trabaja dentro de Square sino en su propia empresa, sin que le deniegen composiciones porque no pegan con el tema (vamos, que hace las cosas como le salen), su nivel ha decaido mucho, y se le aprecia más bien por la melancolia que se le tiene del pasado.
Respecto al tema de FFXIII, me gusta.
