Unofficial Census 2016 for FFXIV

[Moomba33]

Well, looks like the Midas clears are a bit better than the Gordias ones were (I'm remembering a 5%(?) clear rate for the Chocobo server in a similar survey).
I'm curious if there's any similar data for Coil back when it was endgame.

As for the overall numbers I'm not really surprised. I remember 3.1 having a a shockingly low clear rate presumably since it didn't gate any content when it was first released. Half of the game's population not being at endgame doesn't really worry me.

Edit: I think it's a fair assessment of the population as well. If anything it's overestimating active players. I have 4 characters that count as active due to logging in on my 3 lowbie alts for seasonal events and getting a minion from the Yo-Kai quest.
