See Wrote:I think most everyone playing now has the same feelings on Maplestory.
Still playing, but not knowing why.
I really don't know why I play myself.
The fact that it's an MMO means there's always a new deal I'm trying to save up for before someone else buys.
The events making it able to obtain expensive or game breaking items such as 9/7att scrolls and CS'es.
Other than that, I really don't know.
All I'm doing by bossing (which is pretty much all I do other than chatting with friends and keeping up with hell like time consuming events [and getting into bosses takes up hell like time as well, why are they not instanced?) is making money to buy.. more stuff... to kill... more bosses... to buy.. more stuff.
I think no one is able to get to an end because there is no end. It's a vicious circle and we're trapped in it.
I hope that everyone leaves the cycle since a this is merely an illusion saying that you can still grow as a mapler, but deep down, this game has fallen and is way past its expiration date. My goal would be to help every individual quit. I have lost the true meaning of having fun with this game and there's no point in continuing.
For those who say "I will quit", why not quit now? I mean, you are already planning to quit once X event has reached, but in between, what will happen? Absolutely nothing! Unless, of course, you are actually having fun.
What I tried to do is level up my Angelic to 70 with quest line and level-appropriate mobs that are not Malaysia or NLC. I stopped at 22, why? Was it slow? No, it was a pointless goal because it lacked the fun I used to have for maple. For playing 6 years, that is pretty much expected.
As for deleting everything on such a quick notice, that will only cause huge grief once it's gone. The magic thing would be if I get magically hacked, unconsciously. Maybe a few bottle of beer should work their magic...
Nexon is doing everything to give Maplestory that spark to entertain the CURRENT player base. Eventually, everyone falls off, it's just a matter of time because, in no way, is this game promoting new players (see my example of the bottle in the original post).
