Almost every F2P mmo *Quick note, I capped the 2 by accident and got a good laugh because that's exactly what's happening) in any end game circumstance is trying to get that point of the game where you can self sustain yourself without using the cash shop. The game's you're alluding too (Steam oriented or subscription based) don't have a feature like a generic f2p has, let alone maplestory
Eh, true true. I always have this utopian idea for the ideal situation that Maple could be in if Nexon cared enough. lol F@P mmo
I suppose I am basing some things off of subscription-based games (WoW and other WoW-esque mmos), but the same can be said for some F2P models. DFO, before they gave it the axe, was similar. Avatars and pets only gave you a slight edge in PvE, and you could very easily enjoy ALL content in the game while sustaining yourself if you never bought NX. The Cash Shop provided shortcuts, for things such as extra tokens or CS potions, but the game didn't require any of those things to play through the content. It was entirely F2P, as well. Sorry, I can't think of any mmo-style games that are F2P that I have experience with right now. However, the idea that you shouldn't be able to buy power is seen in other games I've played, such as LoL/Dawngate and Hearthstone. So it can be done, but you're right, it is what it is right now.
