The Maple Story Part 1

Ah yes, I can finally talk about this game.
Maplestory is a online Massive Multiplayer online game, made by Nexon. In this game, you make a character and you wonder off into the "Maple World", Make friends, Do quests, and fight bad guys. Like alot of MMO's there's a leveling up system, where if you beat the shit out of a bad guy enough times, you level up. You can also choose between several jobs, like warrior, Theif, Pirate, Mage, and archer. Also, there's an assload of hackers out there just waiting to get your account. If you wanna stand a chance, you gotta secure your password and not be an dumbass and giving it away. There is also these beginners who are called "noobs" who beg you for "mesos", which is the game's currency, where you can buy new armor, weapons, potions, and more. There's also an option to buy stuff using REAL money, called NX(used to be called Nexon Cash). With this you can buy excusive items from the NX shop, or you can cash it in for Mesos. You can aslo use this NX for other Nexon made game's too.


I have so many problems with this game, and ill explain why I quit later. First of all, there's too many cruel, mean, and unusual people in this game, and they will insult you if you are a "noob" in this game. Second, the items in the NX shop have OUTRAGOUS prices, like a wedding ticket(yeah, there's weddings in the game), at maximum, is worth $29. Im dead f&*@ing serious. You have no idea how much money i wasted on this game. Lemme tell you, Nexon got really carried away with these prices. Third, it's just so damn slow. You can go up to a maximum level of 200 in this game. Your leveling speed as you grow in the game gets so outragous, it takes weeks, even months, to level. Dont forget, there's also potions you gotta have when training, and lemme tell you, they run out fast. So your just wasting your mesos even more and more. Doing quests wont help much, because there just so stupid, like "Collect 400 mushroom caps, 300 blue mushroom caps, 100 green mushroom caps, kill 999 orange, 999 blue, 999 green, collect 1 rare item" AND MORE. I MEAN, WHAT FUN IS THAT?! Fourth, the game goes through too many "sever maintenance", where they add stuff too the game, or fix bugs. Oh, and they do these alot. It may even get delayed for days. Fifth, once you pick a "server" to join, you cant change it unless if you make an entirly different character in the different server. So like, if your in the Scania Server, and you want to move too the Bera Server with your main character, your screwed, unless you buy A BLOODY SERVER SWITCH FOR $25! So its like Nexon is mocking you, "You wanna change server's too meet your friend or something or your being picked on?! Well you gotta buy it using your real money you little dumbshits!".

Well now since I covered all that, tune in for part 2 and I'll talk about my story in this game and how it ended.


Edit: I was just getting warmed up. After about 3 hours of writing, the part 2 post is here. Be prepared. This is going to be long.
