We have mixed statements from both sides of the board on the forums.. neither of which is an adequate gauge as forums aren't really used by most the people playing the game. All anyone has to go on is personal experience in the game at this point and that's widely mixed as well. Jumping completely on either side of the fence is not statistically supported.
    I don't have the link since I can't remember which letter he said it in, but Yoshi-p did say most players weren't to the coil yet. That's as close to absolute as anyone is going to get. Going based off that calling those coil players complaining about a lack of content a minority isn't an exaggeration nor a sign of any hypocrisy from me.

    A majority of players don't have to be in Coil for a majority of players to only log in Mondays. There can be plenty of people who only log in Monday to cap Myth.. or people in FCs that are mainly active on Mondays, so even if they're still leveling, they mainly are active on Mondays since that's when their friends are on. Also, unless it was the most recent live letter, then that information is over a month old and could have changed drastically.

    I am not saying it's definitive one way or the other.. just pointing out that you don't have statistics either, and so calling a group the minority can easily be seen as hypocrisy.

    Just to add.. I also hate the term white knight. Was not at all supporting that.. I just hate people jumping to conclusions on either side of the fence when we just can't know for months to come how the game is going to turn out. Way too early to label it a success or a failure.

    It was. I seem to recall him saying that only a few % of the playerbase are actually doing coil seriously, or something to that effect.
