Yeah... Except SE provided census data on this;

That isn't clears, that's just people who entered... Less than 20% of the people who did Normal went on to enter A1S, there is quite clearly an issue here... Either people aren't interested, or it is inaccessible to them for whatever reason. I assume the former, while suggesting a fix for the later. Feel free to, you know, actually weigh in on that... It's old data for A1~4, but I really doubt much has changed since then... I imagine the Midas is much the same, while Gordias will have more numbers now (certainly with that Anima step), but that ~200k isn't even half this games estimated playerbase (last I checked that was 600k~700k).

How about actually responding to the suggestion then... Removing hardcore content from the game was not my suggestion, doing something different with it, and hopefully making it more accessible, was... Do you actually think people would quit en-mass if SE provided content that was just as rewarding and challenging, but easier to get into?

If you don't want me to assume, post more than a few bleedin' sentences...
