It's a dead game. Pointless thread. If anyone wants to sink ~$2000+ into a dead game so they can actually do any endgame content, feel free, but eh

Funny, you say maplestory is dead, but it is very much alive still. I may not play anymore but when I pop in every now and then i realize the servers are full.
Played it when I was 14, 22 now.
Got to level 91, good times.
When private servers became a thing I started playing a little again on my own private server, but then the game was too childish to handle, just couldn't play it because it was so incredibly stupidly childish

The current active players are probably in the low thousands. It's very much a dying/dead game.
The problem with a grind game is that people inevitably realize that grinding is stupid. Literally, you don't have time for that shit. Getting to 30 in itself would require easily a week of hardcore grinding, 70 would take months depending on the class, and 120 would require a year of grinding for even the most dedicated of players.

Literally, killing the optimal mob for grinding at 30-40 would build less than 0.01% of the xp needed to level. It would take over 10,000 mobs killed for one goddamn level. Competing with other players grinding the exact same mob. With fractional xp share for dealing damage. Which you won't do if a higher level player is aoe spamming to farm a specific drop. Which they always were doing.

This game literally is the pinnacle example of a grind.
