Curious, if we have a KMS account can we do this ourselves as well?
Q1. Do you think the balance between classes in MapleStory is appropriate?
No, it is absolutely not.
Q2. For which level range should level up content be added?
Lv. 171~180
Honestly, 160-200 needs real level up content, but I assume you can only pick one, so I feel like 171-180 is the biggest issue.
Q3. I am satisfied with the current buying and selling system for items.
I'm not.
It shouldn't be a cash item to set up the simplest of stores. Almost every F2P MMO since MapleStory has allowed a simple store to be free, with better options for people who pay.
Q4. I am satisfied with the current item enchantment system (scrolls, potential, enhancement).
No, I am absolutely not.
Speaks for itself, really
Q5. The story in MapleStory is fun and interesting.
It's not.
It's honestly too fragmented and scattered to be fun and interesting. It never develops, it just...gets bigger and more complex somehow without actually really doing much, at least in my opinion.
Q6. The interface in MapleStory is familiar and convenient to use.
Somewhat likely.
Familiar, but not convenient in many places. It needs more than the appearance revamp we got in Big Bang, it needs to be redone completely, especially when they're giving us another resolution increase. It needs to be adapted to the new resolution, and have the ease of use that MMOs of today have with their UIs. It's very clear that MS's UI is 9-10 years old, even if it looks flashier than it used to.
Q7. Please write what your most interesting moment was in MapleStory.
Back in Beta, when it was beneficial to explore and experience the entire game. The game was interesting to play in general. It was exciting to enter a new area for the first time. Still is. Problem is that there's rarely a new area to enter.
Q8. Please write what moment in MapleStory left you with dissatisfaction/inconvenience.
The very second potential was realized to be a cash grab and a power boost to the ridiculous extent that it is. The very most dissatisfying moment in MapleStory was when they added Legendary tier, because it's just so unnecessary, and so much worse.
Q9. Please write what should be updated in MapleStory?
Useful quests. More diverse gameplay between classes. More class roles (everything shouldn't be DPS related). Reason to explore. Reason to use other areas. Less power split between slightly paying and excessively paying players.
Q10. Please write something about MapleStory.
MapleStory used to be fun, until they switched from adding areas to adding class after class, and making every month a repeat of the previous month with a new character. There needs to be a reason to want to play old characters again, and a useless 50 new levels doesn't cut it.
