Gleba!

I intend to publish a book titled "Steam Achievement Tea‑Leaf Reading" later this year.

Ooh I have some tea-leaves you can use
Also, I would buy this book!

5% of players even got to Gleba in the first place.
That's 1 in 20 factorio players actually went to Gleba.
Of those 5%, almost all of them are on these forums complaining about it.

Let's calcualate how many of them have successfully completed Gleba
Visit Gleba - 5.8%
Research with agriculture - 4.8%
4.8/5.8 = 83%
So more than 4 of 5 players, who have visited Gleba, successfully solved it. Very good percent and definitely not a sign of any problem with game

For comparison let's calculate percent of players, who have reached Vulcanus after building first space platform
Reach for the stars - 10.2%
Visit Vulcanus - 7.3 %
7.3/10.2 = 71%
Looks like traveling from Nauvis to Vulcanus is much harder task than mastering Gleba.

Now lets calculate "Of those 5%, almost all of them are on these forums complaining about it."
Google give me that as answer for a number of factorio steam owners:

Total Owners: Estimates for Steam owners vary between 6.38 million and 8.3 million.

So 5.8%*6.38M =370040
Lets look at forum statistic:

Statistics

I have only one question to you - Do you actually not know how to count, or are you just pretending?

I have only one question to you - Do you actually not know how to count, or are you just pretending?

Probably does.

If you would like seasoning for the roast, calculate the number of players who complete Express Delivery using Reach the Stars as a statistic baseline. My number was about 2%.

Add to roast, given the fact poster is in Gleba celebration thread, raising concerns about 1/2000 individuals.

Serve with salt. Move on.

I like the music and environment on Gleba quite a bit.
