Old Vet Returning to the Battleground Hey there guys, I've been gone a while, since November 2012 to be exact. I'm just wondering if theres any major updates I should know about. Last time I played Luminous was the freshest offering. I mean, I've been keeping up with the OrangeMushroom blog during my retirement period. I know WHAT the new jobs are, I know WHAT the new level cap is but what I don't know is what the experience is like now. Feel free to leave some thoughts on how the game has changed in the almost two year period of my absence. Stuff About Me: I started my journey into Maple in about May/June of '07 but didnt really dig into it until around the release of Pirates- though I didnt make a pirate, I made an I/L Mage (Moar like ILL

I Need You for my BannedStory project I just want to get a load of people to comment, so that I can make about 7-15 of you in a challenge to my BannedStory skill. I'm not too good at it, so dont expect anything too fantastic, but this should be a fine test. If you could include the name of most or some of your equipment, hairs, and faces that would be golden! I will be choosing who I want , and If you arent picked the 1st time- dont feel bad, I'll be going for this again in about a month or so! Good Luck!

What should I do about my FanFict? I have a story Ive been posting over on the official MS forums for quite a long time now, named "A Tale of 2 Legends" but I decided to change the name to "Legendary!" to focus on all 5 heroes instead of just Evan and Aran but it never seems to get any responses there, so I was wondering if I should just post the entire thing here. Over on the MS Forums theres about 8 chapters, and I have about 15-20 pages pre-typed and ready to post all I need is to proofread and update them with better intel and storytelling styles. So what should I do?

Am I the only person who didnt like Ffxiii/13-2? HEAR ME OUT, I bought BOTH games and did them as far as possible before giving up on both. I dont know why, but I have never been much of a fan of the Final Fantasy series. My first foray was through FF10, I finished it and I can say that was a legitimately good game whit a nice story twist. Soon after I picked up FF10-2 - And I hated everything that game stood for. Sure the combat was good, but the story took a serious hit because Square attempted to mass-market to appeal to the female audience. I tried to give them redemption with a PSN download of FF7 and honestly, I dont see what all the rage is about. Slow story, lacking script and any good attack is given much too late in the game for m

What happens After the Heroes and Black Mage? Anyone else think of this? Since the Legendary Heroes have been announced, I think that there should be MORE classes. Dont flame yet, hear me out! In the final battle all those years ago, the Heroes barley even sealed the Black Mage away so naturally this time around, they will be more prepared to fight back - And so will the Black Mage! I imagine and hope that the PQs for the Black Mage will have class requirements and the included classes will be Aran, Evan, Mercedes, Phantom, Luminous, Demon Slayer, and Ultimate Adventurers to Battle the Black Mage. It can also have a raid as a side PQ to pair (Like Von Leon pairs with Ani Raid) where when the raid starts, it generates a random Black Wing Gen
