Haha, Khoi.
I personally only enjoy the game when I have good friends to play with. Once I realized Scania was no longer filled with friends who played (like you Khoi), I moved back to Mardia.
MapleStory has become very money-centered, I'll admit that. I've spent a couple hundred on this game since its beta days. Something keeps me playing...probably because like any game you want to just see whats up. The summer was different and considering I run a website dedicated to the game, its just something thats always in my face.
As MapleStory grew, Nexon exploited it. The money aspect of the game has totally screwed it up and is the reason why private servers exist. MapleStory Korea and Japan...even MapleSEA never had this issue because it was handled differently.
To me, Nexon America needs someone new to head the company if we want to see any change anytime soon. The best thing I can say is just to play for fun...if its not fun...then don't.
