How many people are REALLY still playing Maplestory?

Maplestory started out as you the player exploring, hence "explorers", or back in the day just frekin characters. You did quests to learn about the world, living out myths, challenging them, even creating them. Your tasks gave you depth of the actual word you played in.

What do we have now? A half ass story that was canned since Nexon Joe or whatever his name left. You installed these stupid heroes that spell out "M.A.P.L.E" or whatever, who "defeated the dark mage", and then you learn the history of a villain you are destined to fight back against. Now even the explorere has some half-assed involvement that has been changed what, 3 times now? To force you to have a goal, to a purpose, how is it your story when you are forcefed a story, to prove some kind of significance to yourself?

"Pieces to a Puzzle", more like adlibs of you making more characters even more ridiculous than the last to repeat the same god awful content. Seriously, how can you not see they make up these pieces everytime they make a new class, when before it was actually planned the f`uck out, and you can see the difference. I hate it when players cling onto that whole "I ENJOY THE GAME FOR THESE SHALLOW, WEAK POINTS BECAUSE I"M NOT A MAINSTREAM PLAYER.

No you're a masochist just like any other player, you just want to find an excuse because you don't spend thousands of dollars to get decent at bossing, you enjoy challenges and want to find value outside of something so "common" in todays metagame. You're just as bad as the rest of them simply because you play even though nexon can ban your character for you taking a piss, make your class completely unplayable one patch, or piss off the wrong person and you suddenly are denied access to the game. It doesn't matter what content you like in the game, or what the hell you appreciate, you're punished from just being apart of the system, don't kid yourselves.

Woooaaahhh All the implications at the end there....

Lemme in on you some things.

1. I only buy NX for perm things or gifts for friends. I don't do "pro" bossing. My highest is a 171 Luminous that I typically ROLEPLAY on. So as for that "thousands" of dollars. No... I actually don't spend that much.

2. >I'm a victim of the system

I'm actually HAPPY with the system currently because I focus on the story and not much else.
-Oh boy new area? I'll explore it for the quest line after all the initial hype wears down from those that want whatever was added in this patch from it.
-New class? Great, I'll make it later and play it out a bit.
-Marvel and Gach update? I'll pass.

3. There's nothing wrong with enjoying the small bits that make up a whole story. I enjoy seeing Phantom in Beast Tamer's alliance quest, and it's even funnier when you play Luminous and realize he bickers the same way with Neinheart. The only thing "shallow" about my faning is the shipping. Shall I send you a PM with some of the fanfics I have wrote? or maybe I can hold you over with some nice fan art.

4. I've been playing Maplestory since before pirates were even a thing and guess what? I was still roleplaying back then. I don't know what you expect out of Maplestory but compared to years ago, there is a lot more for me to enjoy roleplay wise, which makes for a very happy Kimi.

I dunno what you got against the game, but I invite new classes and areas, I welcome revamps and rewriting. I am enjoying this game currently and have been for a long time. The only thing I wish could be settled truly is Aran's gender because that makes it very hard to roleplay but essentially my crew just gave up and see Aran as two different people now.
