Regarding the development staff

In the development section, it mentions that 20 people worked on the game, while this mentions [1] 50 people worked on the game. Which source should we use here? Timur9008 (talk) 13:11, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'd probably trust the current source more. The newspaper one seems like it may have been an exaggeration for dramatic effect to show that games will take less risks as their development cost rises, while the one used in the article actually breaks down who was working on what. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 02:11, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GA concerns

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria due to uncited statements throughout the article, including entire paragraphs. Is anyone interested in addressing this concern, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
