Liner Notes from Mr. Uematsu
Every time I complete a job, I always think, "I'm glad I got involved in this project." Knowing that I've given it my best is, of course, a source of satisfaction, but even more rewarding is the rapport that I establish with the team. What one man can do alone is limited. While some of the pieces are credited under my name, Nobuo Uematsu, it reality, many people will be involved in the creation of a work before it is finished. As a project increases in scale, the number of people involved also grows, making it harder for everyone to unite as a team. A team can never achieve its goals if the members don't trust and respect each other. But when you pull it off, the satisfaction you get is something that money just can't buy. While being overloaded or lacking the required talent can cause distress at work, not getting along with your colleagues is an even more serious cause of trouble. There is a certain joy that can only be felt by those who have banded together to get through whatever problems arose. I'd like to use this occasion to thank everyone who participated in the FFIX project. Their efforts overwhelmed me. I'd never want to face them as enemies!
