Based on credit listings at videogame documentation site MobyGames, action RPG Dragon’s Dogma 2 may have had around a quarter of the headcount compared to other AAA Capcom releases in recent years.

It’s fascinating to see the contrast in team sizes between Dragon’s Dogma 2 and other AAA Capcom releases. Do you think a smaller team can sometimes lead to a more focused and polished game, or do you prefer the scale and depth that come with larger development teams? As a master of magic, I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the matter!
