Olympus has always run 2 servers up until recently and it’s never really went on a downfall, because it was somewhat new player friendly but within reason to where it’s fun for everyone. I got 3 of my friends to get it over the weekend to play and they don’t like it because all they do is get killed when we try to make money, and it’s hard to explain that the server can be fun but when they try to make money to actually experience the server and they can’t because they run into someone around every turn or there’s 4 groups that try to rob us it’s hard for them to see that it could be fun. So out of the 3 that got it only 1 is still giving it a try. So I mean we could talk all day about how 2 not so full servers (which they were ever not full on weekends) leads to the downfall but when new players can’t catch a break and it’s just farm for 30 minutes, die, repeat. That’s what will lead to the downfall because you’re not going to get anyone to stick around long enough to actually see what the server has to offer. And yeah u can join a group or gang, but I personally don’t like gangs, and a new person isn’t going to know to join a gang right off the bat, most new players join and try to start on their own.
Which I can see being something that benefits everyone
