Why did MS2 die? It wasn't all that different from MS1

Shit game that only mentally unstable trannies played

They didn't improve on the game. They combined Minecraft with Maplestory... Nobody asked for this.

>MS1 is about grinding, quests optional for speed
>MS2 is about following a dull as dishwater epic quest with cutscenes

MS2 is also about grinding, quests are also optional for speed

if you grinded monsters to max level you'd be doing it for months as opposed to 3 days max
grinding is absolutely not viable in ms2

Grind world bosses.

Just shut up and post the two girls.

Travelling around the world and changing channels is not the same grinding the same map for hours as MS1 had. Thus proving that the grinding people did in MS1, is not the same as MS2 as per the OP

I didn't know wtf I was looking at until I did some searching on what MS2 was. That shit looks nothing like Maple Story.

what did he want to tell you?

I played a wizard on MS2 (before any big patches) because I knew DPS is the fastest way to grind those shitty mobs that are rife in Maplestory anything. Things that bothered me:
>very noticeable delay between cast and connecting for certain spells
>HERE'S TELEPORT AT LEVEL 0
>no career choices at all, minimal skill choices for that matter
I can deal with minecraft world.

this honestly looks dated as fuck, looks like a cartoon network flash game

It played great though.

is it worth getting into ms1 now?

MS1 was never good, the only peopel touting it as a godsend are peopel who were 7 years old when it was new.

You can always tell a MS1 autist by the people who complain that you can't skip all the story and just sit in one area grinding for days on end.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, WHAT IS FUN ABOUT GRINDING ONE MAP FOR A FUCKING DAY NONSTOP AND YELLING AT EVERYONE WHO PASSES BY TO CHANGE CHANNEL FUCK THAT GAME WAS SO FUCKING SHIT AND GRINDY

There's 1 (ONE) private server that's worth your time. I can't remember what it is. They boosted EXP rates and meso drops because the original grind may have been egregious but at least the quests were paced around it.

>focus on social stuff and player created stuff
>nobody really cared about any of that shit because lmao you have to pay real money.
>actual content was shit, shitty forced story trash
>no original ideas, just rehashed shit from MS1 but without the soul.
>didn't fix any of the issues MS1 has interms of progression, actually was even worse.

The only reason it got any attention at first was the name and the promise of the player made content.

Because it's not even a game. It's a skinnerbox set up by masochistic koreans to get you hooked enough to get trapped into the weapon upgrade loop. Nothing in the world exists except for grinding dungeons for +1's to your gear, then moving to raids to do the same. All distance in the world is gone, there's no point going to other towns, everything has a teleport to drain you down the sinkhole into the treadmill system.

Should literally be illegal to dress systems up like this.

The global version had the actual money making neutered from this system as it works less well in western markets but for some reason just left it in anyway.

tl;dr its boring and barely a game

No design between each area so it all looked samey as fuck. In MS1 each area had a unique look to it.

Nothing to really do in the actual world besides grind void currency or whatever it was.

Too many overlapping activities on timers, and you could warp everywhere. It made it not fun, just a rush to get things done. If you ever sat down, you kept getting warnings that a world boss was up, or an event was going down. And you better get your dungeon runs in!

ASS progression system, but what was I expecting. It also had potential with user-created content, but the marketplace ruined it. Everyone was just stealing content and most people only bought things the first week. Then they made it so you HAD to spend money to even put things up for sale, which made it that much less appealing.
