Dear players,

Thank you all for taking the time to read this letter. Im Min Kim. Im one of the founders of Nexon America and Ive been with Nexon since 2003. MapleStory veterans may remember me from the early days of MapleStory Global. Since 2007 Ive been working on things like our prepaid cards, marketing, and free-to-play evangelism efforts. Unfortunately, that has taken me away from what I enjoy most working on our games and services.

Just recently however, Nexon America has made some internal changes and I am honored to announce that I will be back at the helm of our game services in my new role as Nexon Americas head of Live Games. There are a lot of changes coming and Im going to tell you about some of the big things happening at Nexon over the next year.

The purpose of Live Games is to better monitor and manage our production, marketing, and communication efforts. Its closely integrated with the rest of Nexon America and our developers in Korea. In fact, I just came back from a Korean trip to meet with all of our developers and trust me when I say that weve got some really cool and exciting things coming up from some of the best game makers in the world.

More important than a new structure, exciting content and cool games though, is our renewed commitment to show you the best in us. Were planning many improvements at Nexon America both internally and in the games we service, but when considered together, they all stem from the same idea getting back to basics. To you, our loyal customers, Nexons back to basics focus will provide:



Better and more frequent communications with our players
Increased reliability and stability of our game services
Better Web and game experiences
Improving game security
Improving the quality of our customer service
Providing the best content and support for both existing and upcoming games

We hope you can put your faith in us to bring you the play you deserve.

On a side note, I would also like to take some time to talk about a recent project, Karma Koin. Going forward, Karma Koin will be Nexons official and preferred prepaid card. Although the Nexon Game Card still works, it is being phased out. Karma Koin will work just like the old cards and be found in the same stores. The difference is about making a difference. One percent of anything bought with Karma Koin will be donated to charity. When we add all the one percents together, we can collectively do a lot of good. The current charity supported by Karma Koin is Charity: Water.

Check out http://karmakoin.com/and http://www.charitywater.org/whywater/for details.

Theres a lot more I would like to say, but I will reserve those thoughts for future announcements. In closing, on behalf of the entire Nexon family, I want to wish all of you a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. All of us at Nexon are genuinely grateful for you, our players, and your love of our games! Without you, we would not exist.

Sincerely,

Min (Kim)

I have a feeling we've heard this before.
Let's see if they deliver this time.

How about making your games available outside USA,Canada and Australia?

You think the skeleton wouldn't have decomposed by then...so naive. Let's just freeze ourselves and wait it out.

No, the world has devolved into a hellish post-apocalyptic environment by then, which let the heat perfectly preserve the skeleton.

And here I was thinking that Nexon doing any of the things they promised and keeping their word for longer than a few weeks was a sign of the apocalypse.

There can be multiple apocalypses. Gotta think outside the box brah.

Don't they do this kind of letter every year and wasn't MS in a much worse state pre-2007?

This seems familiar, almost as if it's just a reworded version of LAST YEARS!

What a superficially pretentious writing.

Quoted for Truth.

Apparently, whoever they are, they don't know how to use apostrophes.

OT: Not getting my hopes up... I doubt anything will change.

I actually liked that letter... better than nothing right? Not that I'm going to be playing any Nexon games in the future though.


A Thanksgiving Message from Nexon: Getting Back to B... - Dudewitbow - 2011-11-24

if nexon can fix at least half of the problems listed in the next 3 months, i'm impressed


A Thanksgiving Message from Nexon: Getting Back to B... - Retalion - 2011-11-24

Well, there's the % being donated to charity we were curious about. So for every $10 card, 10 cents is donated to charity! Yay!

As others have said...heard it before, and seen no results. Expecting nothing different this time around too.

I almost went for this, and then I saw:

Quote:Better and more frequent communications with our players
Increased reliability and stability of our game services
Better Web and game experiences

Providing the best content and support for both existing and upcoming games

That just made me laugh. Good job, Nexon.

Although it'd be even funnier if they actually did it this time.
