My friends made me play years ago back in high school. I played for a day, thought the game was stupid and quit. Unfortunately a few are still playing. MS is the devil's game.

My brother forced me to play with him and I ended up playing until I got to level 50 (though he did most of the levelling for me). As most comments say, It is a huge waste of time. I see that's been well established. Luckily it was during summer holidays so there wasn't much to do anyway.
He's still addicted though.

Go to work, send your kids to school;
Follow fashion, act normal;
Walk on the pavement, watch T.V.;
Save for retirement, obey the law.
Repeat after me: I am free.

I played once.
Swore at people and got banned.

Everyday I'm tumblin'

I started playing it a few years ago and not so long ago they came out with a huge update, with the dual blades etc.. and i was like wth cause there was so much new stuff that it made everything complicated; so i quit. I wouldnt play again since it would probably take 5-7 hours to re-download it.

graphics is cute
gameplay: repetitive
the objective of this game is to get as much look-cool stuff as you can
via paying cash, not farm (which explains the ultra slow leveling rate)

its cold down here fam ~

I tried it but couldn't stand the 2d. Especially since we're in the era of 3d.

Now that's the worst kind of reason to not play a game...
Not that I'm defending MS, though.

I've tried it.

I quit rather quickly after realizing the game is a complete grind fest, and that the average player is 5yrs old.

Maple Story fails.
Hard.

Go look for a different game, please.

Well if you completely abide by the "era of 3D" then wouldn't reading manga also be unbearable for you?

thought about playing it few years back but never did play it, because my friend got me into flyff. now that theres nothing to do on that so I went to aika and now I ain't playin any comp. games anymore. Cant find any that peaks my interest...

I hear you say "Why?" Always "Why?" You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"

Played it in my younger days. Got to level 41 (ice/lightning mage) and then I quit. The community is being a bitch. Everyone who has cash shop items thinks there are all that when they're not, and they look down on other people without cash shop items. its stupid. Now I know that some people arent like that at all and im being a stereotype. But this is what I think. Dont hate me >.<
So sometimes when i feel like playing maplestory, i find a good private server and i play there until i get tired of it again, and then quit. Then the whole cycle starts again ^.^

used to play back in the days...maple story..mu online...gunz...until I saw really how much times I had wasted...since then no more mmo for me.....well did get into guild wars a little bit....but stop b4 the whole wow came into play. Funny thing is I had more time playing as a kid/ado than as an adult even though i'm in control of my life 🤣

I played for a little while ; then I got to that stupid part in the stupid forest where you have to get that one flower by jumping on those platforms... and that made me quit. (Although, because I was stubborn, I got the flower first. Then I quit.)

Does the walker choose the path, or the path the walker?

I'm a quitter too. Usually cause the game got deleted off my comp. First was when it wasn't whatever, completed, finished for the U.S, whatever it was. the other time was cause I had to wipe my comp like a year ago.

But I'm not going back to it. I could spend the time playing more varied games. Plus its one of those things where you feel like everyone taking it too seriously, no one's seems all that interested in the whole playing together thing except as a way to help them level up. So the multiplayer sucks and the game itself is just kinda bland without it. I also didn't like spending hours in one sitting either.
