I really wish this game didn't suffer so badly from the old content bloat that most older MMO's suffer from. Like you jump in and start leveling super fast and you have infinite notifications popping up left and right about quests that you will outlevel by the time you finish. Meanwhile you are collecting a dozen different types of coins, tokens, and turn-ins for god know's what and getting all kinds of leveling rewards and freebies thrown at you that makes drops/regular quest rewards insignificant.

Fighting stuff is pretty fun, but all the other stuff they throw at you can get pretty overwhelming.

Second this, but one thing I like about maplestory is if you go look up a leveling guide you can cut through a lot of the extraneous poo poo. A patch that just removed a bunch of the old stuff from the UI and put it into its own category that you can ignore would be amazing QoL.

I'm waiting for that event to start for all the free level ups from 1-120, since there isn't much of a point to leveling before then. I think that starts in a few days?

agree. coming back after 8 years I'm kinda shocked, but mostly amused at all the stuff being thrown at me and I'm sure I've missed several critically important things because of it. that said I'm having a lot of fun so far, I've played for a couple hours so far and already hit level 24 which is waaaaay different than I remember. I picked aran as my class cause they looked cool and it's just like I'm a walking own zone and even accidently bumbling into enemies kills them because of an ability I have. It's awesome and it's so much better than I remember being a bandit and boringly double stabbing everything all the time forever amen.

I even got to kill golems which is one of specific enemies I remember grinding on for weeks when I was leveling at level 60 back in the day. I'm sure this is all very unimpressive and dumb sounding but to me it's like... wow

When I tried the game, pirates and cygnus knights were in the game, and I made a thunderbreaker. The last time I had played before this was in the global beta, when it took me 8 hours of grinding fire boars as an ice mage just to go from 46-47, and it blew my drat mind when I just suplexed poo poo and threw sharks at people made of lightning and bodyslammed drakes because I could.

Mercedes is good, shoots lots of arrows, and has a link skill for bonus XP for your other characters. Wild hunter rides a jaguar around and shoots arrows, and wind archer shoots arrows and causes hurricanes.

but the game's down atm for extended maintenance.
