After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory's first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream (www.gamesradar.com)

Exactly. It is a really great game and the grinding can be very fun with the character skill explosions wiping out entire screens worth of mobs.

When the game released, the only micro transactions were clothing for your character and a pet that could pick up items automatically. Its really sad they didn't just keep it that way.

A few months ago they got in deep shit because the gacha part apparently sometimes didn't contain the low chance stuff at all. So you could pay a million dollars and you would never get it.

Another amazing game ruined by greed ๐Ÿ’”
