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:
