    Yazmat on XII had 50 millions... While it make sense to store certain values on 16bits only (or even 8bits), for something like HP, it doesn't make sense, especially in a MMO. When you code your game, you think about the future. When Tanaka made version 1.0, even if he didn't know (yet) that the game would be fully revamped etc., he perfectly knew that gear of players improve over the years and that sooner or later, mighty foes with a very high amount of MP will be implemented.

    He progammed and produced games in the 90's, on systems where memory was truly an issue. Same for FF XI. 15bits for HP lol... He made mistakes but he isn't that stupid.
