Yet it is true.Piranha Bytes are about that size (more like 20, at least according to their website)
I find this hard to believe
I had some lectures from some PB devs years ago (as a dev trainee, good times...) and they definitely were a medium sized studio back then.
And over the last years, this hasn't changed. They do not follow a grow-as-much-as-you-can philosophy. Instead, they have found their favored size to operate at and try to keep that, only replacing people that left.
But maybe it is a bit unfair to compare a team that works together since over a decade to one of the same size that has just formed.
20 isn't medium-sized, it's small. inXile is bigger than that. I find it hard to believe you could make an open world-ish console game with that size. MAYBE in the Xbox/PS2 era.
