When do you think youll stop playing Ms?

I'm sure you're all aware that you're going to have to stop sometime. And I don't mean take a break and come back months later. Once you hit that certain age, Maple would be kinda of weird to play unless you had lots of other close friends to play with. If you catch my drift. I think I'll hang up the towel once I reach 25. You know just sell all my stuff for USD even though it won't be as much, and just move on with life. I just think it'll be really awkward and weird if I were to still be playing Maple at that age. I know that you're never too old to play games or do certain hobbies you enjoy, but I mean come on, once you hit that certain age it'd be kinda weird. I don't mean to judge people who are that old and still play.

I quit MS a long time ago. But as for games in general, I don't think I'll ever stop playing them CUS THEY'RE SO FUN.

Basil is more interesting than Maple...

and that says a lot about Maple.

Well, majority of the chat section already quit and we're kinda just hanging around the forums.
I don't really play now. Only rarely do I actually go on, but I pretty much log off afterwards.

[quote=Snovvy]I haven't watched TV regularly in about 3 years. I check the weather channel sometimes.. I actually watched TV this last month with my girlfriend because idk..

I don't see what's so extreme about it. TV sucks.

OT: Life is forcing me to quit games. I want to keep playing games. I haven't been able to go on MS in over a year.[/quote]

games=/= tv
You must be really busy to not watch tv. What do you do home when you just want to take a break and relax with family/friends. Do you have a butter churner by any chance?

[quote=xsupakoreanx]i pretty much quit. i just found it really boring now these days. in order to make the game fun its pretty much money in gear instead of effort. i find that i spent such an excessive amount of money on just funding my characters over equips. not that i question the maple economy or anything, but everything is so freaking expensive. i honestly don't know how on earth people even make money. maple is such a wallet sapper i just stopped now. even the new content is not even exciting. maple has always been such a grinding fest where its only just killing countless numbers of monsters for God knows how long. this is my whole view of what u get out of maple: start your job, fund your characters, grind at golems, mush kingdom, scarecrows, jesters, mp3, aliens, and pretty much LHC and stronghold for the rest of your lives in that game. and if u want to even have somewhat decent damage, u gotta fund anyways. and i don't know whats with the mastery books, its so stupid and honestly a pain in the butt to even make one work. i only go on maple to chat, but even so i hardly find anyone good to talk to cuz i always will find trolls and beggars. oh well at least i got basil if im bored. maple isn't that fun anymore. i log in once to check new stuff, then i don't go on at all afterwards. i have only found my money's worth in console games than multiplayer games.[/quote]

In regards to the money problem, I think it's the hackers inflating the currency to death. We often have items 10b+. Maybe we should step back a little and think about how ridiculous that is.

Stopped playing ms a while ago lol kinda late. I stopped playing it 2 years ago. Although I do hop on if something really interests me check it out for a couple days and then bye bye. Last time I logged in to ms was in december?

It's a good way to kill some time, but I've been mostly busy so it's hard to invest any in the game. I only check in once in a blue moon to see recent updates+ to catch up with old buddies who still play

'Once you hit that certain age, Maple would be kinda of weird to play unless you had lots of other close friends to play with. If you catch my drift.'
Actually I don't. I play whatever I want to and I don't care what others think. If they wanna judge, I don't want to hang out with them. When I was younger I never particularily felt the need to hide whatever I played but now I'm older I seriously don't give two ****s.

I'll stop when I get bored of Maplestory or the game shuts down, whichever comes first. Very likely the first.

Until the game closes down.
However if they make a big change that turns everything to crap then I'll probably leave.

I don't play that often already. If my beginners didn't have such nice looks, and I didn't have as wonderful as a bond with them, I wouldn't play.
Though after looking at Dungeon Fighter, I'll probably start playing that instead once it hits NA. Might even give away my acc to a dedicated friendly player. So they may enjoy the same experience I once did.

It would be really cool to log on once I'm like 60 though and see what's different.

I'm on my way to stop playing (but I play another game). But I think I'll play again after a few months, so I'll just have to wait and see.

I don't really have a definite answer to that I shall quit when I see no more reason to play, or either find no time nor the energy to play

eh, I came back this January from about a year long break and I haven't played for the past month or so. The game is just different now, I feel like I don't really connect with anyone on the whole game. So I'm probably done to be honest.

Most of the reason I even came back was because I ran out of Xbox Live membership and was looking for a good time waster.

I stopped playing like 3 weeks ago and only logged in once to leave a BBS message to tell my Guild that I quit o.o
Haven't felt compelled to login since. I probably will come back and check out all the new updates we get (I didn't quit forever, I'm just sidetracked by other things and don't feel like playing at all)
LaTale fills my 2D Sidescrolling MMO platformer craving very nicely. The combat and community are WORLDS BETTER than Maple.

I wouldn't quit at any specific age if I still found the game fun, but I don't anymore so I've already quit. I've talked to people in game who were grandparents, it was weird at first but it's not a big deal.

Already stopped playing, just on basilmarket for the chat section Honestly, I got so bored and fed up with Maplestory. It's clearly a pay to win game now... It's all about the range, the damage, and whatnot.
