I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that
So I saw a video on Maple 2 and it looks like an overly cutesy minecraft. confirm/deny

It's actually an RPG with PvP and gear and stuff, it's only the blocky aesthetic that's similar to Minecraft. I'm looking forward to it! :)

There is a thread in games using the [slayer] tag. There are people in it much more knowledgable than me who can give out more info but play what looks fun and if its not try something else :shobon: every subclass is dramatically different so you will find a class you like if you like 8wayrun brawlers

I remember back in the day when we had 3 Maplestory goon guilds. Goon3 represent! Iirc Armitage ran that, or was it Fistgrrl?

Sup GoonSquad3 crew! :hf: Yeah, I think it was one of those two that ran it - it was awesome just loving around with sporadic leveling in between!

Mabinogi is good too! I love the skill system.

Hell yes. I still play this every now and then, far more frequently than Maplestory (twice a week vs twice a year - if I'm up for it on both counts)

I actually like Mabinogi and would play it if it didn't require cooperating with literal 13 year olds to progress.

Yeahhhh, that was kind of annoying. I just got lucky and found a guild of mostly older (20+) members, along with playing with my best friends - it made such a HUGE difference in how I felt about the game.

Mabinogi crew, what server are you playing on? (I'm on Tarlach...yeah yeah, shush.)

Shattered Galaxy was my favorite game ever and Nexon/KRU hosed it up :mad: I played a ton all the way up to 2009

I think the Chinese remake (Collapsed Galaxy) is still picking up steam but it's way too laggy/Chinese for me

Actually Maple is better than ever and so is Nexon. We had 6 people online yesterday and we go bossing every day! Last week I updated the OP with ways the game is way less pay2win.

PS: Nexon is awesome and Good.

I know I and at least one other goon are on Mari. I played on Tarlach many years ago (back in the C1-C2 days!) but my character was awful so like 2 years ago when I came back I rerolled on Mari.

I think SA used to have a guild on Mari or something that's been dead for years, so I ended up with a 4chan guild because it was one of the 3 groups that I actually did things with on launch. Alexina and Mari are the most populated servers in that order, but I have no desire to start a new character when I've sunk so much money in Mari.

I'm not really actively playing right now, but I come back to the game for a month or two every year at least

Yeah, that is what keeps me in Tarlach: the time and money sunk into a character I made back in 2008 - otherwise, I'd have no problem rerolling!

I do wish that there were server transfers, allowing people to take whatever characters/pets/etc over. Oh well...:sigh:

vvvv edit: Yup, pets too. I forgot to mention them as well, especially the limited release ones. With regard to being attached to my character progress, I don't think I have it in me to grind another 7k total levels to get back where I am already.

It's mostly the pets that would keep me from moving. I have so many pets, many of which were limited time, that I can't live without them and their inventory space. Character progress is pretty trivial because I can just make a hero character and rebirths are free now

I can't agree with that. I started Maple maybe a year before Nexon came in, and the game did significantly improve - until the Big Bang update. After that, a lot of what I liked about the game got stomped out in favor of NEWNEWNEW!!!

It's a shame because there's not really anything like Maple out there, or at least not nearly as good.

Without any hyperbole, 46-47 took me 8 and a half hours as an ice mage in fire boars. God being in middle school was great, you could just waste time like that. Then that wizard got deleted because it was a beta :smith:

My fondest memory of maplestory is easily adding strength and HP to my bandit early on, and dealing with that from 2005-2009. Also 0.2% EXP per kill was good poo poo.

Does anyone remember when the cashshop first came out and everything in it was 30 cents?
I accidentally refreshed the screen and ended up buying 120 dollars of nexon cash and being so okay with it.

Poor Chu-Chu : (
Nexus TK was my first online game addiction when I was a teenager. I was so obsessed with it and would get very angry about things that happened in the game. At one point I was one of the few people in the game who owned a Sevenleaf sword, which was the first legendary item in the game, and it got progressively rarer because they stopped dropping in game. I left the game temporarily and let my friend have it, and he ended up giving it to someone I hated very much in my 14 year old online game life. I'll never forget.

I also had a zibong sword but I died while holding it and it broke forever.
