  • pirates used swords? o3o weird xD ms changed a lot :O it's still bad, but not as bad

  • Dang this game changed a lot from here to now.

  • And..... because you gave them 2 out 5 for the game, Nexon decided to hire you as an awesome MapleStory Flash Animator and part of the Blabber Box on their official (YouTube) website?

    That's very fair.

    (jk lol)

  • Haters gona hate.

  • Resident Evil for the win! i understand the reference.

  • Yup, quests are pointless. Maplestory is nothing but grinding.

  • This video brings back bad memories of pre-big bang. Make a review for post-big bang!

  • I wonder what he would think of LHC...

  • haha, i was in henesys when you were making the vid!! cool

  • This game has a lot of potential, but in my opinion nexon need to work on their public image. To them its obvious its all about money, and how much money they can earn in a week, and its like they take no pride in their game. Look at Notch, the creator of minecraft, you can tell he takes pride in his game. of course, he isn't that big yet but the point still nexon need to stop charging us for every good looking item, and increase the "Free to play" factor a bit.

  • I think most of the MS community would agree with you about the quests being meaningless. Except the Evan/Aran quests. At least those have a semblance of a plot.

  • "Over 16 pages of different hats."

    Team Fortress 2.

  • Male using Female

  • I see what you mean by the costs of digital items but i just began this game a week ago and i never really felt as though i wanted to buy something but to someone younger may be mistified by the jedi bow like a candy bar in a store. I like the weapons you can buy for the money dropped by the monsters but this game isnt for everyone i guess. I'm glad you tried playing it though its nice to hear others views on these games. :)

  • This is the Old Version of Maplestory?

  • i earn free nx from nexons things where u watch vids and install stuff i dont care much for surveys

  • p.s. thats MY opinion.everyone has their own.

  • and,change your rating!i would give it a 5 out of 5 once PVP comes.PVP is the key for an awesome MMO!EVERYONE WHO PLAYS THIS HAS BEEN WAITING FOR PVP!Right?The only time you pay is if you want to get NX!i only buy nx cards for nx.speaking of which,my cash shop clothes expire in 2 days,and thats a bum,but thats not good for 2 out of 5.best is pets,and PVP.so,out of ALL THAT in total i give it a 4.5 out of 5.I played maplestory for a LONG time.and i got my aran to lvl 39.lvl 40 here i come! :D

  • let's be glad PVP is coming the 20th!my Aran is preped for it!Though at rookie. :(

  • question:why do you even buy the cash shop things if they are expensive!?

  • do u play runescape cause idk where u go f2p from thats actual amazing if u play rs

  • Maple story certaintly was like that and it could stand to be improved (Original storyline quests for each class? (which they are starting to to do), and some of it has been improved, though its still mostly killing stuff. If they ever make a maple story two, lets hope they learn from their mistakes.

  • Huh...

    I don't even do quests when I start a new character anymore..

    Mushroom kingdom MAYBE, but yea... most of the quests are worthless.

  • 3:32 LOL!!!! epic monkey surprise

  • quests help you LEVEL UP STUPID,

  • Tottally agree. But I play it constantly. Why? Because you get to kick the but of idiotic creatures senselessly and people can't kill you XD

  • If you ask me, the game gets much better once you reach level 30. Cause then you get a job advancement, and certain classes will give you job advancement quests that have story lines and such. I think the best story line out of all of the classes though is the Evan. Second best storyline to me is the Resistance.

  • I'm surprised you were able to get hired to make cartoons for Nexon's "Babber Box" after this review.

  • I should point out even with big bang and all of the classes after pirate, there's still the same problems...

  • Why did nexon hire you again? Why did you accept?

  • well....I understand your point about spending real money and I know its pretty hard to keep your character look nice but for me it was cheaper to play this game for 4 years when I was back in middle school then playing WOW for 4 years... I spent what...50 US dollars for 4 years? that wasn't THAT bad I don't think.

  • maplestory= Fun When barly came out

    but now this game is complete crap not fun anymore just borring to easy and the comunitys terrible

  • So do you still hate it?

  • Guys, you gotta know that this video was made in 2009 not 2010.

  • u do realize that u get a free weapon from ur job advancment teacher after u advance? so u could have killed the pigs faster?

  • @nmgh101 not back then

  • 3:37 Woah. Identical twins. I can't tell which is which.

  • "The guys on the ships don't believe me that I make the Maplestory videos"

  • AND THEY FUCKING HIRED YOU!!!!

  • ahhh , here comes mapletards . ( MARCUSLEONG )

  • maple suck naix cock

  • Mapletards

  • 5:48 it sais platform in greek <3

  • i love this review. it speaks truth.

  • Geez... Didn't notice? Adventurer class are simply explorers o.0, Obviously they have no storyline...

  • how do you feel abou the big bang update? :D

    plz review it!

  • i dont really agree with this review at all tbh you can boss use maplestory as a social networking thing you can just play to upgrade your equips to show off (f3) also merchant, which may get boring, but fun at the same time. try out different classes, to get more skills. and much more and tbh, alot of people enjoy spending real money on the game, cause the point is to have fun right? and anyhow, tghe way you expressed 20$ made you sound cheap although, i love your commentary and expressions.
  • @CirrusEpix maplestory has changed quest are storylines now another 5 chracters added old chracters have new skills its not wacking stuff anymore it 10 x easier to lvl up now

  • Cirrus Btw Maple used to be way better UNTIL nexon bought it and included the nexon cash system on different outfits. Maple however was not as repetitive and had many other opcions since you would kill different mobs be sent to different places and also you could be working together with your friends to do so. Maybe and i agree w/ you it isn't the best game, but you said anything that embraces the community can't be half bad and here you can make guilds to be updated about what the other ppl do!

  • the worst thing with the NX store isnt that it costs money its that stuff you buy only lasts 90 days then you have to buy it again.

  • if you have a character and dont go on on it for awhile they give you some stuff. i got a dino boy for free.

  • @Hi5536 so thats why i got my dino girl with luck. :D

  • I could agree to your statement that theres a lot of leveling maplestory, but I believe that i won't be the first to announce that this is NOT the only thing you do... I mean come on, look at the map... You can play the game for 3 years yet you wouldn't know all the places

  • brooo....u forgot to equip the knuckles.

  • all the adventurer classes have pointless quests. thank god the new classes give you a story to follow.

    i know plenty of people who don't actually pay money to play, they just spend more time playing to play like the people who play. they took off some of the things people spend most their money on.

    fyi: the people on the pirate ship hate pigs...

  • I quit maplestory 3 years ago, started mabinogi. When i watched this, i totally agreed with this.

  • There's something called big bang beeeaaaaaatch! And you say the stuff u say cus u don't know how to play. Ur just to low level

  • @TheFictionTube This was made last year. lol.

  • maplestory is fun but now come to think about it that is all you do is beet the crap out of monsters to get more stuff JUST to beet the crap out of MORE monsters.

    hhmmmm...

  • i was about to write a negative coment about thie review, but then i saw The Only Thing i Know, and i realized that i was getting angry about something that doesnt exist or isnt important in life.

  • watre u whining for? back then my master started me with 20 stumps then 40 then 80

  • the first time I saw this, I was still a maple fan, and hated this guy for giving it a 2/5. but then I saw his mabinogi review, and I tried it out. next day, I uninstall maplestory, one week later, I come back to this video and now I agree with him. XD

  • Comment removed

  • lol, the moment u walk by someone u hear this exclamation of "I'M BORED!!!"

    I feel ur pain man. ¬¬"

  • RESISTANCE IT COMING OUT IN 10 MINUITES (estimate from the website

  • BIG BANG BITCH!

  • Lol I've never ever used any money on Maplestory and ive got 20K NX

  • I've played this game periodically, and I have to disagree with many of your points. Although the part about the game being repetitive killing monsters doesn't get any truer.

  • this game sucks dick

  • i like your version of maplestory its wayyy better!

  • personally i wouldve given it a 0-5

  • This is why ms is getting boring and ppl barely plays it anymore. And also y ppl go on priv servers since everything cost money in gms

  • LOL so true and yet im still addicted and cant help spending more nx.

    ...help me.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHHA YOU SOUND BORED!!!!!! LOVE THIS VID!

  • FAGGGGOT

  • Ok so its a boy making a girl charactor?

  • @DaJoshDude so, what?

  • I agree 100% with this review, this game is horseshit! Combat is tedious and boooooooring plus it's just an excuse for people to spend real money on virtual items that expire!

  • U are way of 10/5

  • Tip tip: try party quests

  • I thought the review was okay, buuut

    The NX Cash is totally useless. It's just for extra clothing that increase no stats whatsoever. Sure, they have Gachapon tickets that is like the lottery but with Maple items, and the Skills, but I haven't bought a single dime of NX and I'm okay. The quests are for earlier levels to actually level up, and there's also job quests to help you get more skills. But I agree on the grinding; higher levels require hours upon hours of fighting to level.

  • you just don;t like this game do you? ey?

  • Try playing with friends. it's alot more fun- oh yeah you quit questing -.-

  • you don't seem to really understand the game

  • You sound like an annoying whiny kid.

  • Also me playing over a year with 3 lvl 7x and a lvl 12x I NEVER spent real money on this game, im not going to either also when you play other online games (such as Halo CoD) you have to PAY just to play the game, not to mention sometime you have to buy a gaming console, I rather play this game for free and save the rest of my money for something important.

  • It's not fair for to make a review when you never even made it over 21 when you start pqing and training on various maps, the game is a bit repetetive until lvl 20 because until then you can only train at pigs and do quests, once you are lvl 30+ you get to explore new maps fight high level monsters and BOSSES. Also then you can start making money from drops, and with the money buy better equips for hunting monsters easier and faster exp. So instead of giving MS 2/5 i'll give your review a 1.

  • I, being a MapleStory player, say you didn't cover the whole game. You left out buddying, merching, the MTS, and lots of other things. Although you are right, MapleStory is just a shitload of grinding. Good job on the review.

  • Oh and do sudden attack more violent and more action also it's like an online killing game

  • This I would rate about 1out of 5 it's not a new game it's not fun to pay real money and other bullshit like that

  • Alot has changed seince this video and the Dual blade job has story to its job

  • for some reason your review is addicting to hear out :)

  • Well your rewiev sounds like you have never been over level 20 but im not sure with that. The only thing that I really dont think is true is that you only kill things. Theres alot of stuff to do like merching, simply exploring or quests with an actual story behind them.

    Also, to me you never need to spend money on the game since you can just buy nx from other players.

  • @YulinItsutsu but the quests never encouraged you to do it

  • @YulinItsutsu yeah, but if you want enough to actually buy something it'd take you forever, and you dont keep your items 4ever

  • @YulinItsutsu meh ive been deciding to play maplestory for the first time. i think i might try it out.

  • @YulinItsutsu lol whos gonna play this shit untill after lvl 20

  • @YulinItsutsu But other players need to buy NX so somebody HAS to buy it, fool! /slaps

  • @YulinItsutsu

    Yet he makes a very good point by saying that MapleStory is and will always be, F2P, P2E.

    (Free To Play, Pay To Enjoy.)

    Honestly, after Big Bang, it becomes better (No 2x EXP Cards and in new worlds, using gachapon won't really give you the mayor advantage it always gave you).

    I would suggest that CirrusEpix makes a new review, now that Big Bang has been released in MapleStory Global. ^^

  • @YulinItsutsu Also eventually you can get an ability that allows you to craft and upgrade your own items with gems such as diamonds topaz, etc. I believe its called the maker skill. And besides the numerous quest wether to grind or to quest or to simple Party quest with your firnds is up to you. I've played this game for some while already got like 5 acc to lv 50 watch the only thing i know vid and regreted it and now i no longer play the game.

  • @YulinItsutsu Well there is a story behind it, but there's more endless killing once you finish 'that story'.

  • Your pro at reviewing games

  • But serously i get the point most of the things we do don't have MUCH cutscenes or that kinda crap like Mabinogi but killing monsters is just too addicting.

  • Now the game isnt pointless Cirrus, cause they will finally have a story in 7 years after the release of your game's version the Quests and shit will have SOME kind of meaning of the game. And serously...don't worry...i made a decent clothing set myself

  • 3 Choices in each category... Gender: Male, Female,(??!??!??!) Lol. SHEMALESS!

  • MapleStory was way better 'round the early fase when Wizet still owned MapleStory Lots More Events better community and just fun now its ruined by nexon

  • after watching this film i was so pissed i ran 2 my pc and deleted maplestory like that. And i had just downloaded it. Hey can you do dragonball online im thinkin bout downloading it

  • @boweezie2

    He's done making Questing videos.

    If you were a lifelong fan,his last Questing video was a year ago.

    And for some strange reason,he deleted his videos :(

  • Can you please update your Questing with one of the new classes D:

  • @AlexTheYaoiLover1

    He's done making Questing videos.

    If you were a lifelong fan,his last Questing video was a year ago.

    And for some strange reason,he deleted his videos :(

  • Ok so first of all, a lot has changed since 2009 and a lot of quests now have a good storyline. Second of all, you don't do quests to level up :)

  • you really should have picked thife and its BOWMEN by the way 43 pigs isent so bad my quest i got to kill 500 stumps!

  • @kevinstorm11 it's bowman, bowmen is when there are multiple bowman! and it's thief

  • you really should have picked thife and its BOWMEN

  • I stopped playing this game when I got a quest to kill 999 blue mushrooms.

  • Well now sence the new classes are here there is a story line

  • where are the rest of your videos? i cant find them anymore... btw, ur awsome!

  • this guy is making maplestory sound horrible even though it isnt

    you dont have to buy NX cash u can just play without it and most updates are for everyone plus, you only look crappy cuz ur lvl like 13 later on outfits look rly good

  • You dont look like a begger like this guy says...If you play th game for more then ten minutes you will see that you get many equipment that will make you look cooler and stronger....it is repetitive but not in a bad way like this guy tells you, 43 pigs is nothing like 43 pigs come on!!! im on a quest that i have to kill 600 penguin soldiers and its not a big of a problem manly becuase evrything is easy to kill if you are in the same level or above its easy to use and fun if your in to 2D games.

  • wow i hever played maple story before and now watching this vid i dont think i never wanna play it. ._.

  • @princessnisey2

    "I don't think I never wanna play it?"

    Does that mean you want to play it o.0

  • @AuspiciousNight it means i dont want play it

  • the amount of money some idiots spend on this game they could use to buy a PS3 and some good games or even a cheap second-hand CAR!!

  • this game is shit i played it its so repedtetive

  • Some aspects of the game are like... BLEH.

    But other aspects of the game keep you coming back for more.

    it depends on the person. Do you like anime? or maybe Asian-related things? or platformers? or a [some-what] nice community?

    ... Or do you hate everything i just mentioned?

    On this game, you'll either love it or hate it.

  • u makeing fun of maplestory and im a lvl 198

  • @Gouled96 And how you said it doesn't progress or require skill, it requires control of your character, for example the class Aran. It's not just holding down a button anymore, and for the progression the main goal of the game is to progress to level 200 and finish the storyline, and like Ital890 said its easier even though it still is repetative.

  • It was great before nexon bought wizen and jacked it up. That was ages ago. Honeslt maplestory is nothing like it was from the start. I tallied it up, overall I spent more than200 bucks on that. At least you can keep your stuff in Mabinogi.

  • This is the definitely the kind of shitty game that The Angry Video Game Nerd would review.

  • Lol, still can't believe i had to and did kill 1000 of the same monster in a few sittings...thankfully my account got hacked before i got too addicted. xD

    Well orginized review, seemed like you knew what you were saying =)

  • This vid takes me back to the old good times of Maple story...XDDDDDDD the days of Xmas... and my first lvl 20.... nice....

  • hey, is it possible for your account to be hacked if you've not logged in for 2 years, but you didn't give anyone your password and stuff?

  • I quit playing this back when I was 11, I'm 14 now and I play games like WoW, and League of legends with actual progression, and I really enjoyed raiding and role playing something non-existent in maple story. I tried to replay this game with my brother a few weeks ago I couldn't stand a day of it, my little brother plays it with his Korean friend. This is when I noticed the game is for the younger anime loving crowd. I don't hate it but I feel so stupid for playing it when I was younger.

  • @Gouled96 same here i quit at 11 lol and now im 14

  • I didn't really like this review as much as his others. It sounded like he was angry at this game from the start, which negatively affected his judgement!

  • looking at the comment, reactions for maple are very different for people

  • i like maple story, just walking around and killing stuff, i like that

  • I have to admit, even though I am one of those "Maple FanGIRLS" you mentioned, everything you said was true. I don't play maple anymore because I can't seem to get past level 25, and boy, it gets really boring. Or maybe I'm just a noob. -_-

  • @IamDancerXD ur just a noob :P

  • First of all, the game is free. completely free, paying money is an option, they would never force you to pay anything to play it.

    Second, the reason why you're not hitting like anything is because you're a noob. The point of Maplestory is to have fun and make friends, while hanging out at the same time not killing monsters to level up to kill more, you're completely ignorant.

  • @FierceSpears I don't hate this game and neither does he, it was my first MMo, and most likely his first as well. When I look back I remember watching Naruto, and playing maple story, I look back and wonder how that amused me. The only anime I never regretted watching is DragonballZ, it's fine as you have fun, but aside from the younger and more anime orientated audience we see this game has no clear progression and grew to resent it. I'm happy my little brother is having fun with it.

  • Comment removed

  • @FierceSpears and to be honest look at any other MMo, even F2PMMoRPGs have a much lower selection of pay for items. The game is mainly a social game, but thats fine. I find playing WoW on vent with my ten man raiding guild trying to down Sindragosa as a better social more cooperative experience. But the game is not base on skill or progression, it is a grind fest and socializing MMo, with a strong amount of peer pressure aimed towards buying NX items.

  • @Gouled96 Yes, but you don't have to and what he's stating is that you HAVE to, which you don't, and not all people find grinding all that bad. You must have just had no motivation to think that way.

  • 3:37 WTFAIROTFLMAO!

    (why the fuck am i rolling on the floor laughing my ass off)

  • wow nx cash doesnt make the game more enjoyable it just makes u look good and the updates that cost money are more clothes u dunt have to pay to get anywhere and really if ur a beginner dont make a vid plz...

  • u dunt have to kill the pigs to become a pirate u can just skip it and do party quest which is not repetative at all

  • @iRateOnly

    Uh no... No matter what it's still repetitive. ANY quest is repetitive. Especially those by the rememberer.

  • took me 2 years to get to level 70 in the past.... =_="

    my budd who still playes it sais that he got to level 63 in 1 month WTH!!?

  • @shlomi546 more pq's and the new family system allows u to get 2x exp without paying nx

  • Runes of magic is cooler

  • True, maple is pretty much not a free game. To have fun, you need REAL money.

  • @Exderp NO U DONT u need money to look good THATS ALL OMG

  • Forgot to mention you can play without just having to quest or level, i think this is the best game to hang around with friends and do stupid stuff just for the heck of it. BTW, real married couples have met in this, which ive seen, this game has hell alot of couples compared to other games.

  • ugh my fried paid arround $150 for like 4 outfits on this crap.

  • 43 pigs? well thats nothing now if you choose to be warrior you need to kill 80 stumps at 3rd quest

  • lol at the monkey

  • Most quest are pretty stupid, there are starting to make better quest but it still is REALLY repetitive. If nexon was less selfish with all their shit, it would be a MUCH better 9.5/10 game.

  • I never really liked maple story either, good job on doing this, I liked the video.

    The only thing I like about maple story is the sprites and the music, and of course the private servers and animations.

  • this is really true. I got pissed when i had to have REAL money to play. Im pretty broke.

  • @SoopySnoopy lolz do u know? those godamn lvl 200 noobs are buying 25$ nx everyday?

  • @parzit888 They must have no life at all

  • @SoopySnoopy of course they dont.. but the thing that confused me.. is how the fuck do they get all the money!? i mean buying 25k nx everyday(some even buy 100k nx per day)i mean wtf!?.

  • @parzit888 o and the high lvls with alot of nx sell their items for nx in mts, you can sell the items u get ingame for nx cash to other people

  • @SoopySnoopy for the hundreth time u only need real money to look good

  • Thats your opinion i think its better now

  • @AmirMelouk

    No... maplestory is still the same repetitive life dedicating mess that it was before. They just added more things too the mess. Somehow I'm still a little addicted to it but I am cutting back. Seriously, there's very little point to the game.

  • i am ashamed! i am level 115 on this, and now u make me feel like it was all pointless! well it was but it feels more pointless than before

  • Maplestory sucks. I became a thief, but I spent points in skills that were bad for me before I knew what I was doing. I found out you could spend real money to change them to fix it all, but I quit because it wasn't worth it.

  • Although every game is like this one. Therefore every game is 2/5. How sad.

  • It does get repetitive :P I just spend most of my time chating now. Basically given up on the constant killing cuz I get bored easy :3

  • I spent 2years , just to get to level40. In the past.

  • why u always pick a girl character in most of ur video u cross dresser?
