Even worse. In software development we have Brooks Law: "adding human resources to a late software project makes it later".

None of the recent games were bad though, they're just lacking in ambition and side content. These are things that can definitely be fixed with a bigger team (maybe not all issues, butv at least a big part of it).

Yeah, if you have a big team and an ambitious vision from the start, this goes well. If you change team and vision mid-project, you are in hell.
