If you like faster leveling then, yes, Big Bang will be the greatest thing to you. If you like the look and feel of the game over leveling then, no, Big Bang won't be the greatest thing to you. The key point is that Big Bang is neither good or bad, but just simply a patch.
A game's primary objective changes depending on what the person's primary objective is, a game's primary objective is not set in stone. Unless you have proof of the people who made MapleStory saying that MapleStory's primary objective is leveling, if so, I'll shut up and back off. But otherwise, the primary objective is what the player makes it.
Lets use an FPS as an example. Lets say you're playing a mission, the missions primary objective is to headshot bad guy B in the head on a building, however, you are able to walk around, buy a house, all kinds of other things(Grand Theft Auto would have been an epic example of this).The guy will return to a secluded spot to head-shot him every few minutes in real life time, so there's no rush to kill him. This does not mean the primary objective has changed, you're just prioritizing differently, and you're making your own objective. That does not mean the games objective itself has changed. Although I cannot bring Nexon out and have them say they designed this game for grinding, you can't make them come out and say the same to your opinion...Well, actually, you probably could, but I could argue that Nexon doesn't care anyway, and they'll use any form of lip service to get their pay.
Player objective =/= Game objective =/= Mandatory to do
EDIT: Besides, is BB not enough evidence that they're clearly making the game more linear towards grinding?
EDIT AGAIN: Also, have you not payed attention to how much nexon Bias's stat growth, overpowered jobs, and bulks in new job after job to compensate for the boringness of previous jobs? Part of it is for the money, but in order to make money they have to make their players happy. New stuff to grind for= happy players(majority)...
