Maple Story

[Wark]

First off, the name is pretty dumb. But who cares about the name?

I used to play this when my Wc3 didn't work. Its a pretty simple yet fun 2D side scrolling MMORPG.

Some annoyances/cons are: (no particular order)

- newly added "cash shop", which lets you buy items for real money (cosmetic/apperance changing only items)
- Small, child-like character/enemy models
- Long time to level up
- NO PVP!
- Cartoony graphics
- somethimes there are crappy Korean to English translations (rarely though)
- quite long download (204mb) and installation. (it is definatly worth the wait though)


Some pro's are: (no particular order)

- Supports up to lv 120+
- 5 Classes, and 2 sub classes to each one.
- 2D
- "cash shop" items are only cosmetic.
- thousands of items to collect
- well-balanced, solid MMORPG
-seems to have more serious players than other games (ei Runescape), not as much spam and begging.
- thousands of enemies
- new and different kind of RPG
- downloadable client (full screen, small loads)
- funny sounds/music ( I love them)
-frequent updates
- three worlds to explore (1 1/2 worlds finished, third world still under construction)
- alot less (none?) hackers than other games because of the watchdog program called NGuard that is built in.
-3 servers (and counting) with 20 realms in each one, so you can choose to go to a crowded realm to trade, or a quite realm to level without interuption.

Worth a try if you're bored of WC and you want to play something for free.

That is total BS. Well mabye for the BETA test it worked like that. No way for the latest game that's out now.

You need to download the client... It's not a browser based game.

Avoid this one like the plague:

WARNING! Furry alert!

At Maple World, hunting and engaging in battles are not the only options you'll have.
You can explore a totally new and unknown world you have never been to, put on beautiful clothes and gorgeous accessories, and even attract other users in the process. You may begin the journey to explore the world of unknown alone, but you may come out on the other end with numerous new friends through hunting and chatting. If you're tired of hunting and competition, how about playing minigames with a friend for a change?

lololololololol
