Uematsu never retired making FF music, just for your info.

I don't think Mitsuda suits Final Fantasy. His music is just too light headed for the series . We need Uematsu , and if Uematsu is too busy (like he did in ffx) bring up serious composers like ffx.
He never retired making music in FF,you are totally wrong about that.
He either did not have the time to dedicate himself fully to ff, or he was just not asked to do so.
Just to clear that misunderstanding.

If someone got bored of making something, that would be Tetsuya Nomura and the kiddy KH series.He said it himself.
As I recall, Uematsu retired, although he may do some music for the series later on. He's not doing full musical scores, and he's hardly "needed." Yes, the man's quite talented, but it's not like there aren't other good composers out there.

Ah, here we are, he formed his own company, Smile Please, and is doing music for various games. He's not doing all the Final Fantasies anymore.

As far as Mitsuda's music being lighthearted, I heartily disagree. Look no further than Xenosaga to see a good example of more serious compositions. Such compositions actually appear in all of the games he's touched, and his CD Krite is not very lighthearted at all.
