Do you feel Nexon exploits it's playerbase?

I enjoyed the game back in the day even when I didn't buy NX. Hell, I played before the cash shop was even out lol. Actually, I enjoyed the game more before the cash shop.

You enjoyed the game more overall, you didn't enjoy looting with the Z key or going to ch 1 Perion and spamming for hours "S>...." than what you would today. The game was more enjoyable before because it was a new experience for most of us, because the playerbase was smaller and therefore more united, NX didn't give players much of an advantage over regular players sp everyone was at the same level and was capable of reaching the same goals. (besides there being way less glitches, hackers and the economy was in an inmense better state). As time passed by, NX started giving more advantages which nowadays are too big to be ignored and put aside. I've been saying for a while now, GMS' ecnomy is so bad that a new player has no way to success in this game without at least a bit of NX.
