As a casual gamer maplestory is the best game I have ever played. I came from generals zero hour like in 2005(2 years of zhero) and I appreciated maplestory because it wasn't as time demanding. If you played any CC game online, each game you play you're dedicating half an hour on. Maple was always a simple and fun game to me, that I could leave anytime I wanted too.
It offers everything I want in a game, it's vibrant in color, area's with different themes, and a feeling of accomplishment. As it grew up though, it's just become a bastard child. You have to dedicated 3-5grand just to be competitive anymore, and that's just being legitimate...
Every about 3 months I play a private server, a low rate one, just to get that feeling again. I end up quitting always, but I will always enjoy playing the game as it originally started. I will never, ever return to GMS. It is unrecoverable, and demands too much in order to have fun with it. I feel like any player that plays GMS just feels the need to punish themselves or something, the game offers nothing more than dissapointment, risk and failure.
