Or they could continue Maple with a fresh new arc; Naricain's ripe for more expansion, if they ever do decide to resuscitate his plot.
There's also the Goetia; cover more about Beelzebub and his links to Astaroth.
One rule about an MMO is that it doesn't end; the only way it ends is when either
A)Game runs out of plot material
B)Players all quit
C)Company stops making extra content
Besides, even if we get a MapleStory 2, chances are we'll be starting off fresh anyways (what, you really thought your 2xx Night Lord with his Furies was going to get carried over to the next segment?); and what plot would there be to cover in Maple 2? Reviving the Black Mage plotline just makes this into a console game, which I don't want to see unless Aran, Evan, Mercedes, Boralis, and Krytus are the main cast, with Valfar being an optional character.
Furthermore, Maple needs a serious anime rework - the last edition was done on the basis that Maple had a crappy story. This time, we cover the Black Mage arc - and then we dub that crap. Or at least make a comic book of it - that way it gets out of the gaze of the weeaboos.
