I think some folk are still latching onto both CyberAgent's scapegoating and that one dude's tweets who said the game would be dead by now, especially that one guy in the news thread saying DL doesn't chart anymore when it was literally charting in every region with the dream summon and Gala. The notions will basically never die since people no longer interested in DL or actively dislike it are going to keep perpetuating that narrative it seems, no matter how much current evidence points to the contrary.
