Does anyone know of the Maplestory game/amine ???

Cultono

nope

I only know it's an RPG game. Once tried to play it but at that time I had an old computer which barely ran it at 10fps and lost interest (I think the account still exists, I dunno)

Heard of it. Tried it. Wandering around and watching my toon drill random places in the world isn't my thing.

Thought about playing it like 5 years ago or so, never did.

I played it for a few weeks, it's terrible.

Its a fundamentally cash based game from Nexon. You can't even truly "sell" items unless you pay real money to set up a "shop" in order to peddle your wares, which also means while you sell you cannot play.

The graphics are very anime inspired and semi-chibi in their style. That is its main attraction as you can buy (with real money) elaborate weapons and other vanity items, that last for a few days before expiring.

Most of the game consists of ceaseless grinding and a misstep in your character's development is only correctable if you again pay real money to have your "points" reset (generally 1 at a time in a game where hundreds of points are issued). The game has a nearly endless leveling system, but the real challenges are rare or boss monsters, many of which are not killable unless grouped.

In short its a fun game to pass a few hours away with, but not something worthy of being serious about as it is essentially a cash vacuum for any player who wants to truly advance.

Played it a lot in highschool, got to mid 60's then got bored. Did high level servers got to 120's got bored. Overall it bores easily and had no.real substance, I stick with wow and ro.

Reminds me of a game called Runescape I used to play.

Call me ignorant but what is IVP?

It's apparently a company that makes it's money by buying popular MMOs and introducing a "pay-to-win" system to them. Which is actually pretty clever, in it's own horrible way; most people get really attached to their long running characters and suddenly having to pay out bookoos of moolah just to be able to keep at their previous level of play might tempt them (however grudgingly, but grudge money banks just as well).

I see. I knew some, if not, all Nexon games had stuff you pay with real money, but didn't relate it. Actually never played it, I just remember a BSOD after the intro...

I played for a few months a few years back. But when did they make an anime about it?
