Where Have We Come To?

Remember when there were only 3/4/5 lvl 200's? (depends on how new u are)
Don't u think think that its been a little bit TOO easy to get to 200?
I think that the rates need to be lowered, not neccessarly at the lower lvls but in the high ones (around 150)
currently to this minute, there's 11,235 lvl 200's.
Currect me if im wrong but GMS is out for 7 years (?) means that by statistics, from the first day that maple came out
(lets say exsacly 7 years ago), there's 4.3 people lvling too 200 from the first day.
idk how many ppl were lvl 200 before big-bang, but i can insure u that only a few.
im sure i have alot of grammer and spelling mistakes up there (^), sorry

discuss! (if im typing it right.. >.&lt

i think that the last lvls shold be crazy to lvl, and bring back some challenge to the game.
tell me guys, where's the challenge? saw angelic burster? it has an attack with 4.5k% dmg, that attacks twice (and without cooldown!)
and its max dmg is 100m istead of 1m T.T SERIOUSLY?

well, if you look at it, when you go to lhc, with the godly exp + exp coupons and HS, and LEECHING with hackers.. you already know why people get to 200 so fast, and even if you're not a hacker, if your partying and leeching with one, that makes you NO different than they are, you are not legit if you leech with a hacker or even leech at all. For all those who leveled to 200 the legit way, congrats.

Well, I think that there's two reasons for the mass 200s:
1) Party Quests
2) Lion King Castle
Maybe Monster Park and other things should be included too, but I dunno since I haven't tried them.

Those are virtually the only sources of making quick EXP nowadays. I tried training my level 166 Buccaneer in Road to Oblivion 5 which has monsters in his level with an awesome spawn, and guess what, after one hour I got around 10%, if not even less. If it wasn't for the things I mentioned above, there wouldn't have been so many 200s today, and those who did reach 200 would've really made an "amazing achievement" as the blue notice says.

In most games, reaching the level cap is [i]normal[/i] and [i]expected.[/i] In most games, there's a world of fun to be had AFTER you reach the level cap. In most games, that's when the fun starts. It's a BAD thing that this game is all about leveling. It's a BAD thing that there's nothing to do once you've reached the level cap.

Everything I'm saying is obvious to anyone who's played anything besides maplestory. The game is flawed in that aspect. When it comes to pure, raw gameplay -- this excludes things like collecting trinkets or henehoing; I'm talking about playing the game in a way that involves fighting monsters, using your character's skills, and so on -- it's all about the grind. At its core, the game focuses on pushing you to level 200 ... and for what? There's no endgame content. It's so flawed. And instead of releasing endgame content, Nexon just releases new classes, so we can get to level 200 all over again, and experience nothing, all over again.

of course i can, its just boring...
even if for a relatively short time, its annoying being at lhc/sh from 110-200 T.T
