This recognition led to many game designers and companies recruiting Mr. Sakimoto to compose and arrange music for their projects. When he was just starting out in the field of music, he would write his name as "YmoH.S", an obvious bow to the Japanese electronic group Y.M.O.
In 1997, Sakimoto joined Square and composed the score to "Final Fantasy Tactics" with his long time friend Masaharu Iwata. Later on, in 2000, after completing his work on the action/RPG hybrid title "Vagrant Story", he resigned from Square and once again became a freelance musician. He went on to establish Basiscape, an independent provider of audio and music for video games and other media. After the success of "Final Fantasy Tactics" and Vagrant Story, Square-Enix offered Hitoshi Sakimoto a job composing the score for "Final Fantasy XII" and after its huge success, he expanded Basiscape to meet a growing demand for his compositions.
As the founder of Basiscape, Sakimoto has since been composing for several games and taking commissions from independent companies. He has recently completed music for the MMORPG "Fantasy Earth: ZERO". Basiscape also employs Sakimoto's long-time friend Masaharu Iwata, as well as Manabu Namiki and Mitsuhiro Kaneda.
In 2007, Sakimoto was the composer for the anime series, "Romeo x Juliet".
Announced in May 2008, Hitoshi Sakimoto may begin composing for American video games.

Someone told me it was referenced in the main theme of the 5th area in FFXIV Endwalker. I haven't played FFXII before and this sounds really beautiful.
(Spoiler for FFXIV:)
The area was named Elpis.
Edit: the reference to this is really minor, or not sure if that was a reference : P

XII was such an underrated game. I don't normally do 'lists', but if I did then this one would definitely be in the top 3, no doubt.

@J Chea not necessarily I mean as long as you had a decent party and the wood Warders could leave the village temporarily just to protect it.. but honestly with a long life span with no companionship I don't know if I could do it...
I'm all about like being an adventure discovering things sticking a sword in a werewolf . Magic wasn't really in my forte.. lol 😅
