I played oldschool runescape on release. The nostalgia carried us for about a month, maybe 2, after that, the game absolutely needed new updates as it was just bleeding players almost to it's death. Everyone was older, game mechanics were figured out, metas were formed quick and people didn't like to deviate. The old Maplestory you knew is never coming back, it feels like it did because you were a kid. Any official oldschool maple servers would need new content if it wants to survive. It is not a simple straight road as you want to believe.

What I always loved about Maplestory is the art and music. Finally getting to Sleepywood and hearing the music and seeing the weird, but lovable NPC's and OH MY GOD thee background with the packed trees just made my child brain fill with joy, it just looked truly magical. Going to Ant Tunnel was the same, but with a much more serious, I felt like I was approaching a place that was mysterious and really dangerous and difficult to get to. All the while helping eachother with other people. It's just the vibes, man, Maplestory mastered the comfy yet wild vibe, I just loved its world. And my first time going to El Nath...man, I cannot describe with words how it made me feel, but it makes me tear up thinking about the magic I felt. Put on Sleepywood or El Nath's themes right now for whoever is reading this and you will get my point atleast partially.

Oof, you deleted the reddit post right as I commented lmao. Fun video! Some notes: You should of clarified what era of Classic Maplestory (the years and such) you were covering as some of the pain points you mentioned were actually fixed at different points before big bang. The tracking command was /find not /track The main reason party quests were limited to 1 party per channel was because of the rewards. Mainly the rare rewards like scrolls and equipment like you mentioned in the video. Party quests being "faster" was only under perfect conditions. There were times you could grab a party and find a channel quick. There were also times where it could take upwards of a half hour just to get in for the first time that day. I actually outleveled many of my friends who focused on party questing only as if I couldn't find a party and get in within 15ish minutes of searching, I'd head off and just grind/do other activities. You made a MASSIVE jump from the early days of Maple to big bang. By the time Big Bang hit, there was actually quite a lot of higher-level content, granted not content up to 200, but still quite a bit to work towards. Not sure if you looked at the southperry timeline for reference before making the video, but definitely give it a look when you get the chance. www.southperry.net/timeline.php I'm surprised you didn't cover potential at all as it was one of the main driving factors behind many veteran players departure before Big Bang released. You overexaggerated the impact/changes that big bang made on the game. For the most part Maplestory's core gameplay and progression didn't change all that much and actually leaned even more into social gameplay with the addition of PQ's to 200, Lion kings Castle, Stronghold, PVP, ETC. Big Bang until Unleashed was another golden era for the game. Levels weren't "Irrelevant" suddenly, 200 was still an achievement for quite a while. Hitting 200 Pre-BB was just a higher status than those who hit 200 post-BB. There was also an EXP requirement change that happened in 2009, a full year before the big bang update, and levels weren't suddenly irrelevant then. Your "Level 50 in a day" comment means weren't very optimal when it comes to grinding levels as 50 in a day was possible even before big bang occurred, especially once New Leaf City was introduced in 2007. The training area's it had were absolutely broken rates wise. I'm one of the biggest shills for a Maplestory classic, and I'm 100% in agreement that it shouldn't be 1/1. The goal of a classic server should never be to "Ride off nostalgia" and just be a 1/1 experience. The goal of a Classic server should be to provide a superior experience of the Classic Game for both players new and old, not to repeat the mistakes of the past. To allow players to re-live their memories while also creating new ones. It's fine to have additional content, fix player pain points, and improve the overall user experience as long as the changes don't compromise the core gameplay/experience. Classic Maplestory also has the massive benefit of being an entirely different sub-genre of MMORPG practically having no similarities to its present-day state outside of the Art and music. Because of this, it has an incredibly high chance of obtaining its own unique userbase and coexisting with present day Maplestory, especially if it started to go off its own direction introducing new content past what was received before Big Bang hit. Do the video of everything you want in a classic server, I'd defo watch it!

This game has given me so many fond memories and actually changed my life! I remember being like 8 years old in 2005 sitting and watching my older friend play for the first time on his mage and how i couldn't wait to get home and download the game and try it out. I spent countless, countless hours exploring and adventuring with friends. I think i got to lv 85 on my I/L mage pre-BB. Right around all the BB changes, I wanted to learn how to make a private server for me and my friends to play on which forced me to learn Java and HTML. Then fast-forward to high school I stopped playing and I focused on following my dream of making my own games, then college came and I chose to study computer science & business because I actually had some skills I picked up from MapleStory and game developing for fun. Now I'm almost 30 years old and I run my own software development company and I get to build software that hundreds of thousands of people use every day and I love it so much! If not for this game, I probably would have never went down this path that I am on now. Thanks MapleStory!!1

why not create a classic ms? that’s relying on a fact that old players (at this point about 15+ years ago) would play and STAY. most adults will not have the time to spend 30+ hours to get to lv 30. a lot of people say “if they brought back old ms with a different exp curve it would be hot” but that’s exactly what BB did. you bring up the fact that private servers show the want for an old school ms but that player base is not honestly big enough to support a whole server who will make nexon enough money in 2023 to stay alive. yes, the social aspect of the game is different, but that is not something you can ever force to change. new maplestory is a lot of fun. in reboot you can make a lot of friends. i loved the video for the nostalgia, but nothing in the world will ever feel the same as ms in 2005-2008 and that’s okay.

Bro not a single person wants to play Old School MS. Sorry to tell you. I don't see the point of having level anything in that game. They gated the hell out of the best items. You had to roll dexless, lukless, etc. or you were just insanely weaker. I mean insanely. It is stupid the formals they were using to do damage. Just overall everything was rather poor about the game. People were grinding in hopes they would release more content. Which guess what they did. Events, GM events, It wasn't the grind that kept players around. It was how NX was interactive with their events and free stuff. To act like the daily log in weren't a gate mech used to force log ins. Everything Old MS did was literally designed to force you to log in or you would lose huge compared to other people. If you didn't have rich parents. You were always weaker then everyone else. Because HP washing and main stat only classes. Plus these rich people would just buy mesos from hackers and botters. So this drove up prices of mesos to insane levels that no normal player would be able to make. Which in term forces you to have to go into this crap level market. If hackers never come into Old school MS. The game would of been so much better. The market would of been normal instead of none stop mesos sellers trading for cash. You could get mesos for so cheap back then also. Like max mesos for 2$. Because how many hackers were around. Which you had to do this. So in the end you had to go to shady mesos selling websites to even have enough mesos to play this game. That game was trash. I never want to go back to trash level shit like that game again. I will not be a player of that game. It is like Old school WoW. Only downs RERE Trash with scum in their brains want to play a game from 20 years ago that was dog PoS level. This version 100000000000000000000000 times better. It has story, classes, bosses, end game, early game, mid game. You got all the grind you want. The only thing they really destroyed, was the party quests system imo. Which was a huge social system of this game. I will say their entire social system is gone because they removed their party system. Only MPE serves as a party system and that one doesn't feel like the old ones did.

That's what they said about runescape, then osrs became wildly successful because they fixed the things that sucked about it without overhauling the entire game 20 times until it no longer resembled the old. New maple isn't any better lmfao, in fact it's worse because it's barely even the same game, comparable to rs3 vs osrs. Modern maple is trash unless you like technicolor vomit with map wide skills and spitting out billions of damage in seconds, where every class basically does the same thing. They didn't even try to fix the issues old maple had, they just made a new game over time that doesn't play the same, with new issues that are just as bad. People want old school maple back and for Nexon to do what jagex did with osrs, but everyone knows Nexon isn't capable of achieving that meticulous levels of change and balance to the original product.

I actually went on through the early days of Big Bang and it still felt like home. (Mushroom Castle my beloved) But it was a death by a thousand cuts, the production values went up but the original vibe of the game kept getting buried. More and more new classes were added and the story became more convoluted and less mysterious. Nowadays there's a portal to everywhere and several PQs and entire areas were removed to make it more of a single player experience (???) There is no longer any mystery on what awaits you in areas beyond your zone of comfort, I recall travelling to Ariant and descending to Aqua Road to explore and try my mettle against stronger monsters even though i was not meant to be there yet. With so many modern conviniences the magic of discovering and exploring such a large world is gone forever.

i made so many friends on maplestory. funnily enough i made internet friends on club penguin, then we migrated over to maplestory as we got older. i met people and had a blast. i started RIGHT after the big bang update. my first character was an aran. i think it changed for the worse sometime in 2012/2013 when they introduced new characters that leveled up three times faster than the OGs, it just made no sense to play those anymore when you could make a new character and have a much faster progression. so i share the same gripes as you, but with fond memories of the early big bang and then distaste for the next big update. funny how that works huh.

Old School Maplestory would be nuts, i mean, i can't play hours and hours of maple like i used to in my childhood, but nostalgia is really powerful, i'm pretty sure that it would be a pretty good usage of my humble free time. And as you sayd, Reboot is the best thing they did to maple since big bang, no pay to win, but still, they get SO MUCH money with just cosmetics, it's insane. This game can't die without going back to it's roots officially, it would be criminal to do so. Best BGM ever

I remember when I was young I joined Maplestory right on the day the Demon Slayer was introduced, so I can't say I experienced this old school Maplestory back then. But I got a sense of the gameplay somewhat by playing private servers before and it's interesting to see that despite the game back then not being as polished gameplay-wise, the social aspect was much stronger than it is nowadays. Sure, you can join guilds to interact with people, but a majority of players now practically speedrun the game and it's not too common now to interact with people that aren't within your guild. Game nowadays feels more like a single-player game. Nexon is really missing out on free money by not making Old School servers. I know for a fact I would give it a try.

when ludibrium came out is was literally like exploring a new world. Ludibrium PQ was such an amazing party quest it felt like yoru really has to work as a team and everyone was valuable. when the other party was finally about to exit everyone would start screaming CLICKKKKK lmao sometimes there were so many people on the same channel that trying to get in would be impossible without an autoclicker. Once you got to grinding at zombies you were basically in the endgame. I personally never got to that high of a level back then. by the time I got that strong on my main things started to change significantly. I wss such a henehoe instead of tarining

I wish they would bring out maple classic I would spend so much on cosmetics that I never got to do a decade ago I would want it to only be up to the release of pirates and 3rd job then only focus on new bosses and rare items, I quit maple around 2010 and then played private servers until 2013

Aznben1994 - Bowmaster - Scania To all my friends I’ve made, hope you’re all doing well/happy in life. Life back then was simple and fun with no worries but party leveling, boss fights or just social hanging out enjoying time with each other. Life now has been not so fun and hard at times. But we struggled much harder back in the days grinding to lvl200 or trying to scroll god tier items and much more. So we all got this. I miss and love you all❤. Those memory I will always cherish even after death.

Yep, the game that no longer exists. Wish I could go back. (Just kidding, I do go back.. I play pservers regularly. Me and the thousands of other players who do the same.) Pservers do have a major issue that only Nexon could fix though.. they will be buggy, they will get shut down and wiped, etc. Even with all this going on, 10's of thousands of players have still given them an honest and dedicated play through, and then left.. came back.. left. It's an untapped gold mine for Nexon that they refuse to even consider.

The last part of your video is ambitious, but you have to remember you're talking about NEXON, they will NEVER create a classic MapleStory, the first thing on their mind is monetization, not the community, and it's clearly shown in their patch notes (like removing Jett entirely). The game now has many unaddressed issues like 90+% of the maps being unutilized due to "not being meta", every class feels the same and doesn't have an identity like how they gave each class a flash jump and vertical jump... The early game part is practically non-existent since you reach level 200 so fast, that all the towns prior to Arcane River are useless, no need to ever roam them, and if you did, it would be for so little time, you won't see any players in victoria island anymore other than Henesys hoes, because there simply isn't a reason to be there, you get out as soon as you came in. The game after 200 is also very linear, you don't have many places you can go to, you just complete daily quests, farm/grind in the same map all day everyday, the only thing that drives you forward is getting better gear. The party play concept was thrown out the window, as if they couldn't make relevant FUN party quests for players to enjoy rather than spending countless hours braindead grinding, frying their brains in the process. This just proves that despite many issues being easily fixable, and restore some of the charm the old MS had, they are unwilling to do so.

I've brought this idea up to my friends so many times and they're all for it. I started out with Runescape back in 2007 and play both RS3 and OSRS today. I started MapleStory back in like 2008 after the fact and loved every second of playing. Playing MapleStory now definitely isn't the same as it used to be. I've played on Reboot until lvl 240 and just can't do it anymore. I agree with you 100% that MapleStory could potentially do something like Runescape or WoW in terms of bringing back classic servers. I feel like if they brought it back and updated it in its own way like OSRS does, it'd be a massive hit. I know for a fact that if MapleStory classic was announced I'd be going crazy and would at the very least give it a try. Great video man!

I am very fortunate to have also grown up in the Runescape/Maplestory era. I was a little younger (I remember literally telling people on Runescape that i was 9, lol) and I was very happy to see Runescape come out with an Old School server and have said that Maplestory needs to do something similar for years. It will never happen. But there would be a true resurgence of players if that did happen.

Everyone would totally love for it to come back pre BB.. i just think as we aged and figured out everything about the game it would be hard to bring it back, thats why they dont crackdown on many Pservers nowadays.. everybody just evolved with it and those who stayed well stayed and those who jumped off well jumped.. they would have to bring back the old feeling but with some new things. It was all to new for us like you said so everyone kinda of molded together.. they kinda just killed there game by developing it quicker then for us to grasp… definitely a time capsule and nostalgic era it , was like the todays facebook of gaming…id say kill the whole game all in all and restart it from like just before they introduced ossyria and take it from there and try developing it different but idk how it play out if they had GMS and an OSMS running together loved the video dude.. player since 05.. highest level 221 after hundreds of characters ive made and lost through the years🥲🥲

Loved the classics when I was younger. These days MapleRoyals is the best for that experience. Old game style with a slightly increased exp rate and they still over time add the new locations that go beyond V0.83. Believe they usually have 1500-2000 people online at all times. You'll never get something official from nexon and if they did, I dont trust they would do it well. So jump into MapleRoyals.

Take off the nostalgia goggles. There's no way anybody would punish their mental health with classic maple beyond 1-2months. Classic WoW and runescape are at least fully fleshed out games with even bigger followings. Maplestory pre big bang was not. Like dude, Classic WoW, The Burning Crusade, The Wrath of the fucking Lich King. Getting to re-live those events are hype as fuck, especially if you missed them. Not to mention, from then on, Blizzard started making the game more idiot-friendly, degrading the game. What do we get to re-live with classic maple? Mushrooms in fucking henesys hunting ground 2 and pathetic gameplay that doesn't hold a candle to the current game.
