Haha, I'm divided on whether or not I should submit my opinion or not. I'm a bit of an odd case.
Basically, I log onto GMS occasionally, usually just to test out some new class or content. I used to play a lot (12X Sniper before 4th jobs came out, 14X Buccaneer on El Nido just after Big Bang, ranked #2 Bucc on the server before I stopped), but now I keep my Mapling to unofficial servers. However, I like to keep up with stuff via Southperry so I can get information on how things work in GMS, along with looking at all those fun extractions of KMST material.
So my opinions may not be beneficial to Nexon because I disagree with the 'cash shop = more powerful character' mentality. I believe good stats and equipment should be earned, not purchased. Nexon's made a few steps in the right direction with events, but then I run into other issues that prevent me from sticking around for the entire duration of the event.
But then again, perhaps those issues might be helpful to hear? I almost feel like a new player every time I get on GMS again because I have so little of value and not much in terms of link skills, character cards, blessing points, etc. And as a recurring "new player" who is experienced and knowledgable about Maple Story, I could shine some light on the frustrations of the market, mastery books, and lack of a pet that keep making me not want to stay.
