Should I come back to ms?

so i haven't played maplestory in awhile now... i have had around 5bil in items, but i've wasted almost everything on xenon items, and their price is much lower now from what i've seen.
i was always quitting and coming back since the social aspect of the game was over... i just never really felt fun anymore when playing ms like i did back in the days.
but whenever i see a video or sometimes hop in basil to check out the latest news i think about returning, what do you guys think? is it worth it to come back or not?
i'm playing in bera, and last time i logged in was about 5 months ago, and the game was kinda "dead"... is it just not worth it anymore? or are there still fun things?
also, what's the best class to start with right now? cheap and high dmg? and what's the most fun class in your opinion? and if i should start, start new or in the same server?

Maple is not dead yet! I still believe in it, because I have an awesome alliance that I can talk to most of the day. Join a more populated world, because no matter how much I love Khaini, it is dead. Like, really dead. Like a corpse. Ded. Ded.

if you have to ask then don't come back, play the game cause you want too not because people are telling you should.
Are you a follower or a leader?

This game is a status game. You play to be well known. The game requires very little strategy but whatever requires strategy can easily be compensated by large numbers and NX premiums. This game is no longer about getting the highest level, or getting strong enough to kill bosses. This game is about how much wealth you have over other players, not necessarily how much more range you have. If you play for occasional fun, find another game. This game is about how much wealth you have over other players meaning that it is impossible to be good at this game without spending a lot of $$ or time (farming event stuff ie, 1-2 hours for ONE event scroll that can easily fail). You can be high leveled with a decent range but you are nowhere close to being recognizable in this game. And, at the end of the day, it is the wealth that you have over other players and other players recognizing that you have more wealth than they do that determine your worthiness in this game.

You should at least give the game another try. Maybe try Eunwol or even make a new class to get you going again. To be honest though it's up to you rather you stay or quit. I too have just recently came back and I find the game enjoyable. And you should stop comparing the game to what it was in the past; view it as a new game instead.

You should come back.
Eunwol is to be released on the 9th of July, so you could try that out?
I'd say wind archers are pretty cheap and got decent dmg.
You could always go to scania, since most items are cheap, so it's easier start.
Join a active Alliance and you'll see the social aspect is still there.
