'''MapleStory''' is a [[shitty]] 2D [[anime]]-style [[MMORPG]] originally developed by the [[Good Korea|South Korean]] company [[shit nobody cares about|Wizet]]. Eventually, Nexon, another South Korean company, merged with Wizet, and their American branch took control of Global MapleStory (a.k.a. Maple Story for [[Americunts]]). Think of an unholy cross between [[Gaia Online|Gaia Online]], [[Mario]], [[You|everything evil ever to be included on the internets]], and any other color- and anime-overdosed game.  Arguably the most popular [[Team Fortress 2|F2P]] game in the world, and as such the player base constantly argues with the [[Ragnarok Online]] fans over which [[The Game|game is better]], which is complete [[bullshit]] because [[Truth|we all know every MMO game sucks.]]

MapleStory is infamous for a wide variety of reasons, but to sum it up in a sentence, it would be "the same problem Wikis suffer from, in that ''anyone'' can be a contributing member."  As MS was arguably the pioneering free-to-play MMO, it soon became the staple argument for "why free things in life suck, particularly free MMO games."  With [[AOL|access given to any moron with a computer and a working Internet connection]], [[No|was it any surprise?]]

The gameplay is much superior to many other MMOs such as [[World of Warcraft]] as you don't just click an enemy and spam your same shitty macros over and over; you actually have to put in a bit of effort. After 5 minutes though, it becomes a tenuous grindfest spamming the same 2-3 techniques over and over for hours on end just to rack up 5% exp towards your next level while you develop carpal tunnel. The financial aspect of the game is even worse. In the original maple era, you would grind for several hours to make enough money to get the items and weapons you need. Nowadays, equips you need automatically drop for you on occasion. However, like every MMO, unless you shed some of your wallet for in-game cash to buy l33t gear, you will be outclassed by every other player.
Community wise, the game is made up mostly by underage weeaboo trash who drain even more of daddy's money so they can spend $30 to make their characters (under 300 pixels) look so kawaii~ (◕‿◕✿) through the Pay-to-win system known as the Cash Shop. In the first few years, Maple had an awesome laid back community. Sure, there were dickheads, as there are everywhere in this fucked up world. But in the [[lie|good old days]], people were pretty cool. That has entirely changed a decade later- most of the players are trolls, egotistical weeaboos, or fags from reddit. Like most MMOs, the community aspect of the game is garbage now, defeating the entire purpose of playing the genre.
Maplestory is like your first girlfriend you made in Middle School that you really loved and got attached to. But she became a weeaboo feminist freak and you quickly lost interest in. She became nicer to you in order to suck you back in for your money, resulting in you binge-dating her for the next decade, never truly committing to her.
In recent years, the game has been drastically reshaped, removing most of the original content and items, although said items still remain in oldfags inventories. We suggest you sell your OG gear for a fuckload of cash on the free market.
