Maplestory is not dying, it is already deceased

Some games do better than others in different countries, that's just a fact. I think there are definitely strong differences, you can see based on what kind of games are popular in Korea vs America, but the people who play GMS and KMS are, of course, far more similar than like, I don't know, Japanese Final Fantasy players vs American Halo players, I think, simply because both were drawn towards playing Maple in the first place.



I don't feel it's reasonable to just accept that, it's something that really needs to change, and I feel others feel the same way, hence the complaints.



We got more abundant crafting cubes basically in exchange for the existence of occult cubes. I'm not sure I'd want to give them up, but they've never really done anything for me anyway. We lack many of the ways to make mesos that exist in KMS, our crafting cubes aren't even tradeable. But mesos are basically useless anyway, it's technically against the rules to use them in a way that would make a significant difference (like, buying NX without cash trading), mesos being worthless means any good equips (like fully scrolled and cubed equips) are far too expensive for regular players to get.



By being vocal about it. Things don't change if you do nothing. Hell, we don't even have evidence things change even when we do things, maybe they would've done the "A Better Maple" improvements even if we weren't complaining, but it's better to give it a try than not doing anything at all.

And, you know, getting all the stuff in KMS that don't exist in GMS isn't like the limit of changes they could make, I don't agree that getting closer to KMS is the standard we should be aiming for, hell, when we lost Occult Cubes, they were pomegranate, they only worked on rare and epic stuff, and they deranked, and in exchange, we got crafting cubes that were much easier to get, and that was a hell of a positive change compared to just doing what KMS did. Getting some of those things would definitely be nice, but we can do better.

Well remember that S,cubes became a lot better, I think Meister Cubes could co-exist with strange cubes, it is far more consistent and healthy to the game to have S,cubes but that's my biased view.

I said I knew you have a KMS account but you're like the only one (who posts on southperry) besides myself :f3.

It's not that I don't accept it, I just don't accept that people just think it's fine to have the same discussion (without any insight) every 8 months, that's all, as I've said I liked how things were going on here, well not anymore.

If mesos are worthless it needs to be fixed, I think becoming more KMS like, adding more meso sinks would help, more 'godly' items so to speak, I mean the korean model is clearly working, they should at least add flames, Remember that GMS and CMS share content so that alongside the KMS content could be a bomb, and just like you said being drawn towards maplestory is why I don't think like that arguement, it creates a common core before all else.

P.S do you know why GMSers were against flames in the first place?
