While many people take this rather a positive news, I've thought it would also lead him to more obscure works (like
this!) as well as occasional game projects, which I think is a dilemma for his über fans or collectors. As he was involved in at least one Ainu show or concert before even when he still belonged to Square Enix (he also seems to have distributed self-pressed CDs through his very private website, if he was ever Hamauzu), I guess his post-Square Enix career will be, well, more varied yet so personal.
