Maplestory is a 2d side scroller game. If you're going to make the jump to 3D that's fine. Numerous other games have done it. But the difference is games like Mario, and Zelda kept the same feel as what the game was. It was just Mario and Zelda in 3D. This is not MapleStory 3D. It's a brand new concept all together.
2) I don't think that's all true because then Rhinne woke up. See here: https://maplelore.wordpress.com/?nxid=6 for the lore. We know a large deal of the Maple World actually. We don't know much of it's past but it's present is pretty clear.
I'm pretty sure there's no pre-defined standard on how game remakes are supposed to work. Sure, others may be similar, or switch to 3D, but it doesn't mean MapleStory can't take it a step farther or do something different. There's still a lot of the basic MapleStory towns, there's still going to be henehoes, but it's a new game in itself as well. I wouldn't even go as far to say it's a new concept altogether. The concepts are pretty similar in my opinion. The cute motif even stays the same, too.
