Not sure tbh, I was just going off my wage as IT support would be in that region. if you think a game will need far more than 20 staff tho you're talking about 2/3x that amount, could just soak up all the money in staff wages alone.

Well you may not be wrong either, from what I understand wages do eat up a lot of the development funds anyways.

I hope they do. I think it would really be selling Shenmue short if they only had a 6 million dollar budget(even less considering Kickstarter get a decent percentage).

I'm actually more worried if they go the real open world route. I think that would just be too much for a small team but if they would just do a Yakuza level of development. I think they would be able to achieve it and do better. I mean the world of Yakuza isn't that big anyways.
