MapleStory's problems aren't just the predatory MTX shit, which got so bad that they actually released a Reboot server that disabled a lot of this stuff, but just overall content bloat.

On top of the 5 core explorer classes (Magician, Thief, Warrior, Bowman and Pirate), there are Cygnus Knights versions of these classes, and 29 overpowered hero classes that are mostly based on the 5 aforementioned class groups

Big Bang streamlined the game excessively and ruined the overall flow of Victoria Island, making it vastly more linear. It also made Ossyria much higher levelled. Whereas for example you could probably survive in Aqua Road as a level 35, it now has a level 80 requirement. One of my characters is stuck near Ariant because they changed the second zone to be a 120 zone.

I think I played maple story in like 2007 and it was garbage then. My excuse at the time was I was broke, and there weren't many good free games out. Path of Exile wasn't until 2013. Same with Warframe. Huh I never realized those came out the same year.

i was around during the first lvl 200, fully support the player's decision. ppl asking "why play then?" have never been in an abusive relationship. it's a great game tbh, just filled with mtx & grinding to the brim. ima check out his latest vids @tniru to see his side of the story
