I know it's like this for other Nexon games, but just making more people aware of it:

Curses. It would make managing them a lot easier if I could just link them all to steam.

Hmm... so if you link one account to your Steam ID, can you launch the game through Steam, then open a second client through the Nexon launcher and log into a different account? This could be convenient.

Can anyone confirm the lag mentioned earlier? That could be... inconvenient.

It wouldn't open a second client for me. But I had GameLauncher open first.

No. 3rd party games that don't support Mac won't be able to be installed on a Mac.

No MapleStory has this symbol [Image: platform_win.png] so it is PC only.
Only games with the apple symbol [Image: platform_steamplay.png] (does not need to be STEAMPLAY or apple+window it was the only image I can find quickly) can play on Mac.

I am having an issue installing Maple on Steam.
I keep getting this message when installing.
 Spoiler
When I press OK it closes the install window too.
Anyone else having an issue or know how to get around this?

Steam the platform is for PC and Mac, Maple is just for PC.

Oops, didn't see the second page. Sorry!

Who writes this junk?

I don't reside in one of those countries so yeah. Patching through steam would be nice but linking one account, not so nice.

I get that too. Is it because we are in Canada?

Ok, so let's assume that you only have one GMS client installed, and it's installed through Steam.

One, if you go directly to the MapleStory.exe and run it, what happens?
Two, if it opens up the MapleStory site, can you run MapleStory through the browser normally?
Three, if the above won't work, can you still make a shortcut from it and run MapleStory directly with the "GameLaunching" tag?

I was getting that too. I got the installation to work by completely closing Steam and restarting it, see if that helps.

Anyway, I'm loving being able to launch all my games from one interface, but I'm wondering if there will be any more incentives to connect accounts...

Semi-desperate Public Relations/Marketing people, who are trying to make a bad thing sound better.

Well, this Steam interface is no better than logging in through the website. Forget running multiple accounts. I am gonna stick with the old fashioned way.
