Its 4 years online, at first i was like okay hardstuck but then i gave it a chance. people sad, that past 3 months have been good for the server. normaly there were like 30-50 ppl online recently the amount of players online has risen alot. yeserday when i went offline there were 400 online, of course with autotrades, and they had their peak at 480 last woe. they have 4 guild woe in one castle with 15 or 20 ppl each guild. econemy is still very good after the years because of the amount of new players. the admin looks really legit too me. hes software devoloper himself and has put alot of work as far as i can tell into client and server.
semms that the server has future to me, since the server had so few players this long, and the gms still did work for the server
and its now rising
i mean legit 4 years online
just a few pservers can live up to that one
so i am gonna put my free time in this i guess because i am hella tierd of wasting my time on servers wich go down after 3 months anyway. I can realy recommend this server. i ve benn playing on this server now for 4 days.

I've been keeping an eye of the server. I have an account there but I stopped years ago due to the number of players. I see that it's making a good progress on the population. /ok

Can confirm.
Server is more alive than ever, 4 active WoE guilds competing, population reaching 480 during woe, 380-400 outside of WoE in peak hours, very healthy market, and still loyal to its core features: awesome control panel (very guild friendly with Masteraccount system, easy and secure guest access system) no cash shop, no broken items...)

Yes, I agree.. I server lived upto expectations and beyond. I had a char here made 3 years ago.. but due to peer's pressure I joined the other server to play along with them. Sadly, all the other servers died too early and while I was looking for some RO action again in the recent months I stumbled upon this website and was amazed when I saw 350+ online and 1k+ online per day. That is unbelievable for a server which had hardly 30-70 people online at a time for more than 2 years. Anyways, I'm glad I decided to play here and spend my time cherishing the good old moments of RO. Hope more n more people join and make it really fun. This is not the end.. cuz the server is still in episode 9 and there are lot more episodes to come. So, naturally the oldies would never leave. Long live Origins RO... expecting it to serve us till 2020 and beyond.

also reached over 500 players last woe :) /no1

Well, I still see they mainly have attention for groups, small groups will have a hard time for sure on Origins and even harder when you can't team up much for whatever reason.
Of course that doesn't mean you can't experience entertainment, you still can. It is even possible to retreat from it for a while, it is all on the long run really here.
Lately there was an increase of players indeed, it seems that a sufficient amount of players don't find satisfaction anymore with a server that does base it's population mainly on 3thparty program or grf tweaks users and they are gathering on Origins.
My experience over the years: the population of Origins is very decend in great majority. Even now with the increase players. You will see rarely KS based players or trolls here and once they appear they deal quite efficient with them also.
Players here will rather help you as frustrate you. So, it is really a server where you can find entertainment.
Last but not least, it's Hercules based which is a much better emulator for pre-renewal as the regular Renewal based clones.

Just to give you an honest perspective about the population, when the server has about 400 people online over 200 are autovenders, also, multiclienting is really popular and used heavily. Many players are running 4-5 clients at a time. You can find a guy in byalan 2 with like 6 people autofollowing him. So, in all honesty theres usually 40-60 people online at a given time.

Still there is no better Option for a classic server. All other servers are just high Custom and Donation servers and going down every 5-6 Month.
This has Future

with all the new players, we almost have equal numbers in terms of active clients and autotraders.

And its rising, many Iro:Restart players are joining now

If only they have a proxy server for SEA.

after 8 months, i have to bring up new things and a better review overall.
since this post is opend by me, I felt like informing and correcting some information.

Community - 7/10
The community has its up and down sides. New players will recive a lot of help in main chat, and there are guilds looking for new players and they will integrete them fast.

Server Stability - 10/10
one if not the most stable server ive ever witnessed. And its up for 6 years

Events - 5/10
Hard to find. Some guilds to guild intern events but thats it. GM events are not very common.
I tried to make one for the server once and got jailed for it. And ran into struggle wich was then bind to this. I even had to remove my video wich i made for the server
because people of the community were trying to report me.


Economy - 5/10
the economy is a ciritcal topic. It seems fine but is actually a very high disadvantage for new players in terms of equality.
There has been changes wich reduced the Great Nature drop and other zeny items to lower % drop. But other players were able to abuse that for a long time and this made ppl getting 1-3 Billion Zeny easy. While now you realy have to work for the zeny.
Equipment is easy to get for new players, overall the market prices are healthy.

Class Balance - 10/10
Its classic PT , what else to add.

Administration - 4/10
The GMs dont realy listen to the community and there is a lot of unsolved problems. Client, Game and Balancewise also Community releated things.

PvP - 9/10
The PvP is amazing, so much fun, and not unbalanced. The gear that makes you really strong in PvP is not hard to get either, just dedication and some time to get to that point. Anyone can PvP at any point if they wish to, and if they want to without hurting their K/D on the leader boards they can enter the Safe PvP room to avoid that.

PvE/MvP - 3/10
Normal MVP, easy to kill nothing real challenging for pvm players.
This is a so called "pvm focused" server. But the recent changes to EXP song have hit the pvm scene hard. And will continue to harm the scene. They made exp-song uneffectiv in how their exp system worked after 6 years. This is again why new players have a very high disadvantage. Not only did they remove every efficent MOTD (mob of the day wich gives 2x exp) monsters like high orcs, now they also made party lvling less effctive then solo lvling. This is still supposed to be a mmorpg and not a solo agi assassin game of a game where u leech your own char with your knight.
They did this changes without talking to the community and from most of the council members ive heard their voices have been ignored ( wich also indicates that the gms dont realy care about the community).
Soloing at kahos or leeching yourself with a knight at High orcs, bathorys , annolians is the best way now. Wich is kinda sad and takes the whole mmorpg feeling away.

WoE
Grown a lot since I joined the server, and I am prolly one of the biggest reasons for it.


Overall I have to say the recent changes made the server worse. The disadvantage for new players is increasing wich will slowly make partys disappear because its simply not worth it. And when new players start to realise how hard it is now , for now reason at all, they wont continue playing or more likly not even gonna join the server imo.

OriginsRO does have an Acia Pacific proxy which works fantastic for SEA
