MapleStory is a beloved cornerstone of F2P MMOs, partly because of its accessible atmosphere and creative style. Another source of fans’ admiration is the consistently solid storytelling that takes place within the world of MapleStory.
This is one of those stories.
Nexon has recently added a teaser page the main MapleStory website, containing a introductory video and a promise of more content to come. Similar to Blizzard’s work with World of Warcraft: Catalysm, Nexon hopes to reinvigorate players with a world-changing event, namely the “Big Bang”. The video (shown above) features vibrant art and a fairly cliche story of the heroic resistance that must ensue to save the world from the evil Black Mage.
Nonetheless, the developers have demonstrated that they are fully invested in MapleStory’s evolution, as we can expect “an updated user interface, higher resolution, better graphics, new character classes, a higher EXP curve, and updated maps, among other exciting additions.”
You can check out the main MapleStory site here, and the official Facebook page here.
Yes, MapleStory will become awesome as soon as they reduce the grind. Which they are halving. Yeah!
OH YES! I can’t wait till tuesday! LET THE WAR BEGIN!!
