Maplestory 2 is officially shutting down May 27 2020
This is not sad news to me. I am actually laughing my ass off! NEXON when you care about Marvel Machine and P2W so much, you lose players. there are WAY better MMO's out there nowadays to spend money on and Maplestory just sucks!
What started off as a NON P2W game turned into a P2W game anyway because they're greedy. They didn't bring most of the content from the Korea server, they had all the players waiting for months. Right now they currently enabled ALL hot time events which will run throughout the month.
Maplestory Global is no different. I've watched the Reboot server go from NON P2W to P2W over the years, They even refused to bring back the "Tiger Days" on MS1, this is why SO many unofficial MS1 servers are out there.
This will not only be the fate of Maplestory 2, I am certain Maplestory Global will follow suit in the upcoming months. That's the price NEXON pays for greed.

@deeemon: maple 2 is the wrong kind of retro. our maple is exact the right kind of retro. Big difference.
I gave up on MapleStory 2 the moment someone took the IGN I wanted.
endurance: I've watched the Reboot server go from NON P2W to P2W over the years,
I: how ? You can only buy stuff with mesos you earn in game. Doesnt sound like P2W to me.
I agree with everything you said; MapleStory 2 was a terrible game for numerous reasons.
Unfortunately Nexon Korea still makes hundreds of millions of dollars or more on their P2W model yearly, so I doubt anything good will happen with Maple in our countries.
