How morbid
Yes, he did only compose one song for XII... and he has been sharing duties for a while now, so it hasn't really been the end of the world since he left. He could always come back and do an entire soundtrack again, you never know.
I think he's a magnificent composer... But there are many, many composers that are just as good in my book. Yuki Kajiura, Yasunori Mitsuda, Yoko Shimomura, Akira Yamaoka... They've all produced game soundtracks I listen to just as much as Uematsu. Square has plenty of people to hire to make yummy tunes for them.
Yoko Kanno needs to quit doing so much anime and do some game soundtracks.
