I see that some versions (including MapleSEA) got Ellin Forest, but KMS still didn't realease any quests for that area, but they keep releasing new content instead.
So yeah, I'm wondering if there are ever going to be quests there, because in my opinion, that's a pretty useless area, if it wasn't for the PQ and some monsters.
The BGM is really nice, and I love the area overall, but still, they should add more quests to make it more interesting.
Also, I don't really understand Nexon Korea. Ellin Forest looks not-completed, but why releasing other content like other jobs and maps before even completing Ellin Forest? Also, in my opinion, they should've kept releasing all time-period maps (like Ellin) before releasing other stuff. In the Time Control Room there's a NPC, and it's probably going to be needed to go to other Areas (in the past, or even in the future, who knows). In fact, KMS is probably going to release other areas in the past, so why not just focusing on them before even releasing other content? This just makes no sense for me.
But oh well. Who understands NEXON? Korea, Japan, America, Europe.. NEXON is still NEXON in all countries. It doesn't change. And if NEXON does something that makes sense, then it's totally wrong.

There's a lot of unfinished stuff in it.
This NPC that was recently added is basically saying expansion.
Just judging by her outfit, it'll be for Boulder Mountain.

Whats next? dances with horntail?
Sitting Bull is called Dances with Balrog in MSEA, so... Well, you get the idea. His outfit (or hat) is similar, too.

Dances with Zakum isn't anything really, new, and never has had a purpose. You MSEA players are just over-inflating it.Lulz.

There are quests for Ellin Forest in JMS, so they DO exist.

Isn't there a PQ in Ellin Forest? I would personally like to see this place developed a little bit more too, since the concept really is pretty cool. If they could like make high level training areas too, it would at least diversify a bit (not like godly ones where people just end up flocking there, but something like Dukus to Skeles where they're around the same)

I think they are releasing the other things before Ellin Forest so you can do the things for Ellin Forest. I think.

Don't be silly. There were no such things as "quests" back then. F3

I know that's her. But her outfit suggests that she's wandering the mountains.

I just went to Ellin Forest in JMS and LOL@ THAT DANCES WITH ZAKUM! In JMS it's called 寝てる赤ちゃん, which means 'sleeping baby.' Talk about completely changing the NPC names, huh? O_o

Are you sure it's not because Dances with Balrog is Native (American)? They have those silly-sounding tribal names. That's what I've always thought it was.

I cant tell if you're being sarcastic or not.
Dancing with Wolves is a movie about Native Americans, NEXON used "Dancing with Wolves" for one of their NPCs but instead of using "Wolves" they used "Balrog." You're right in the fact that they used "Dancing with Balrog" because the NPC is supposed to be a Native American, but they got the "Dancing with __" part from the movie, Dancing with Wolves.

O_o In Korean the name was a play on the korean name for "Dances with Balrog" so they just translated it over as closely as they could to english (the string name "Dances with Zakum" has been in GMS data since .56). JMS is the one who has completely altered the name of the NPC here.
Though, what are these JMS elin forest quests like? Cause yeah, there aren't any at all in KMS.
