When and where did they claim that? 

I remember someone data mined the beta? or alpha, and they replied to it saying something like
"dont worry, its just a beta, its only 20% of the game".
I tried googleing for it, but cant find anything... .am I the only one that remembers this?

Closest thing I could find was this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Seaofthieves/comments/7uoz01/they_said_the_beta_was_only_20_of_the_game_right/

^ that person remembered it too.

*edit:  Might not have been MS or Rare that said the 20% number thingy.

So no actual evidence just "he said", got it.
