Tons of stuff is client-sided, and I doubt they could do much about it without a huge codebase rewrite. Nonetheless, I still enjoy it, and feel that the game has gotten a lot better lately, what with Star Force enhancement and Elite Bosses and Maple Rewards Points. It's not the first game I'd recommend, but I think it's quite a good one despite its flaws. And if you only play casually and don't try to kill late-game bosses, there's a ton of content!
I don't think I quite agree on the casual part. MapleStory is a game where you gotta either spend a lot of money or a lot of time, even to get averagely good. I guess if you're willing to spend some money on it you can save yourself from having to spend that much time and enjoy the game more casually, but otherwise you'd find yourself limited in a lot of content.
For the rest I agree. the game has got better lately compared to what it was one or two years ago. It saddens me that it took the game to get in this condition for Nexon to step up their game (ba dum phs) content wise.Look at Black Heaven and Mechanical Grave, they are examples of this top quality content that only a few of us will get to enojy because so many have moved over.
I do think fixing the issues MS has is possible (granted very hard though). Do I think Nexon is capable of doing what it takes to fix the game? not at all, but I think that should be our answer in that survey. Maybe if Nexon is flooded with this answer, by a miracle of god they decide they are gonna prove us wrong and do something, at least to alleviate some of the problems. That'd be better than writing "the game sux I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy".
