Past times

So I know half the people are gonna flame me for this

But I was looking back on this old video I remember watching and it made me miss the old maplestory /:

As you can clearly see no one really bought nx and the game was more about just having a fun time. I wish Nexon didn't ruin the game >->

Before people say if you don't like the game then quit I'm just gonna say right now I have quit.

complaining about it[/quote]

I'm not complaining. If you have nothing good to say why don't you just not say anything at all?

[quote=TheSonic]i agree that the old days were good, but its the new things that really keep me playing. i would have started playing something else a long time ago if not for all these new items, classes, skills, etc. just my opinion[/quote]

Well of course we need new content. I like the game right up to the v70s. But when they started going to the 80s the way they changed the game ruined it for me. I wish they took a different direction.

@Dinchman: Oh because I'm totally telling you how to play your game

[quote=Idiotversion]Stop saying the game is ruined. No, it's not exactly the same, but it's not "ruined." Take off your rose-tinted glasses and realize that it's all the same thing. Some rates have changed, some numbers have changed, but the people are still who they were before. If that's what you valued before, then absolutely nothing has changed and nothing has been ruined.

Nostalgia trips are fine, but stop with the "The game is ruined forever!1!1! Nexon sucks!" stuff, it's really annoying.[/quote]

TONS of people wouldn't say these things if it wasn't true. The game is very different jeez. I don't understand how people can't comprehend that.

[quote=Subception]Everything they did in this video is still able to be done today. If you're not having a 'fun time' playing the game you shouldn't waste your time playing it. I don't see the problem.[/quote]

The video isn't everything I miss it's only a portion.

Probably because most of the people I know are at least 18-19 years old, I could never get them to do this sort of thing with me =/

[quote=Narwhol]It's what you make of it. If you want to go yell at NPC's or have play fights, why not do it? There's nothing new stopping you, and I'm sure there's still plenty of people that do it. Just like how back then, there were plenty of people who enjoyed merching and plenty of people who enjoyed grinding. Nothing's changed except your perspective.[/quote]

Well if you wanna believe nothings changed then go ahead. I can tell when people aren't gonna change their mind.

[quote=Narwhol]The community is near identical, there's tons of assholes, but if you look carefully you'll find that good players who really do try to have fun and help others. I've been playing for 5 years and this is something that has never changed.[/quote]

[quote=NoCookieforYou]No, your right.

@Narwhol: Your really wrong if you think that's all that changed. The whole community changed between that video and now.

@shediza: I know that o_o I'm talking about the shoes that dropped from the Slime King boss O:[/quote]

Well then, I wholeheartedly agree with you.

[quote=crayolamix]I believe he didn't quit because of todays NX clothing, but quit for the fact that you have to buy NX to be good nowadays. In the old days you could scroll your own stuff and get really lucky and you'd be considered rich if you had 200m. These days 200m will hardly get you anything. Correct me if I'm wrong TS, but thats just how I see it.[/quote]

No, your right. Also not to mention the main reasons I quit is because the game changed and most of my good old friends left. It got boring and pointless to play /:

[quote=Narwhol]Pretty funny and cute. But honestly, think about it, the only difference between that video and today is NX clothing, and if that's enough to make you quit that's kind of sad, especially considering you have NX clothing[/quote]

[quote=OmniAbyss]It was definitely a different creature back in the day. When Aqua Road was new and 30 was like today's 70. The community had a lot more personality. And the thrill of fighting desperately over KPQ was pretty fun.[/quote]
