man, I wish I was financially in a position to say thanks with money. these vids are just amazing. so currently, the best I can do is say Thank you from the bottom of my heart man. These vids make me so happy and full of good nostalgia.
Babe wake up, more old school MS quality content. 🎉
Babe wake up, it is 2024 and someone is still using the corny ''babe wake up'' joke again 😂
@@SkaterHipHop what do you mean i see it on like 90% of niche, quality yt chans. Lighten up mate.
@@martyb154 i was just having a troll chill bruh
@@SkaterHipHop why?
It’s nothing special really to point out. But I’m really glad that Togain’s commentary has breaks of silence. Most content today has creators spilling their script at the speed of light while Togain (in combination with their great choice of music) fully captures the feel of a map through his own pace of narration. Awesome work as always my dude
It's a narrative choice, but the pausing is my favourite sort of narration. With no pause, it's shorter, and it's good for folks who need constant white noise or who just want information quicker. With pausing, I feel like I can actually breathe to digest information while looking at visuals (and if it's in the background, it feels a little like story telling, with intentional pauses for emphasis on the story.)
return scrolls were definitely able to be used in orbis tower, I remember reaching the first snow map which meant I could safely use a return scroll to skip to El nath
This is true
they were initially disabled before being enabled sometime around v49
Can we get a series about the music of Maplestory? I've played almost every mmorpg on the market but Maplestory is the only one I come back to and im not sure if its because of nostalgia or the music, but even in other mmorpg communities, they use maplestory bgm while talking about unrelated maplestory topics.
I have never made a magician character, but the Ellinia town theme is my favorite.
Temple of time is goated
Yeah the old music used this one high pitched instrument that I love to hear I think it was a synth or something. Some of the more notable tracks it's used in is the Deep Sea theme used in Aqua Road and the Orbis PQ theme.
LaTale and Wonderking have some gems too. All in all i think the korean mmo market knew music is how you get people to think about the game
It's always a banger when Nexon drops a random maple concert too. Ngl "The Jazz of Maple" and the art was sick
25:36 - "Haru-chan, congrats on being discharged from the hospital~ ^ ^ Here's to a long and happy future"
Wow, that screenshot has more backstory than meets the eye
this is what i truly miss about past maplestory, back when everyone was nonchalant about grinding and enjoyed the socializing aspect of it. it was inevitable that solo leveling would be the standard after a long period of time with the game being "figured out" in terms of the efficient progression but with the world progressing towards that fast and immediate lifestyle, I feel like nobody wants to take the game slow and focus on what really matters, which is each other. it also made sense for nexon to push out more solo progression since the game was slowly losing its touch and playerbase before the introduction of reboot, but I wish they were able to find a sweet spot of replacing grinding with better PQs for more social elements. to each their own though
@@jangb98 its not that though, fact is that there are better social platforms like discord for people who are more focused on the socialising aspect whereas back then Maplestory was like MSN or myspace but 100x better with the gameplay as a secondary plus. People who hop on maple now are those that want to actually play the game with socializing as a secondary plus
@@Roflmao6173 what you explained is exactly what I miss, the game being more of a social platform than an actual game itself. and since the socializing aspect actually helped you progress similarly to solo grinding in terms of PQs, it opened up way more opportunities to interact with fellow players and achieving the same goals together. I'm currently playing reboot and though the new boss functions are nice for meeting new people, you cant beat the pure joy of finding a group for 3-4 others, playing PQs, and possibly making a new friend.
I always thought the background in Wolf Territory was unsettling. Just this infinite void of trees that goes so far that darkness consumes it. And then when you finally reach near the end, the sky is blood red with dark clouds, with that mysterious castle looming in the distance. Very creepy area, aided very much by the music.
I agree, the eeriness of Wolf Territory coupled with the perfect music makes it my favorite group of maps to this day. Its my destination for every SSF.
Bro please continue! These memories keep us old maplers going through boring real life ❤️
Babe cancel the reservation, Togain just dropped
Happyville is a map i remember a ton. I got into maplestory in december of 2014 and I got lost in Happyville after accepting an event quest. I did not know how to leave for a long time but I loved the music so much and didn't care that I was lost. It was a very magic place for me. I always listen to it in the winter season.
everytime you jump to a new area, the music hits me like a flashbang. cant explain how it takes me back or brings me to ms vibe
you can tell it's an aspen because of the way it is. that's pretty neat
Damn that last redesign of Happyville adding back the OG look hit my heart. I like to imagine the designers wanted to give it one last change before it was gone for good. Rest easy Happyville
i always listen to happyville’s white christmas every holiday season. also i just remembered coke town, i wish that made it to gms
Man this was great. Happyville was a place where people would hangout and/or wait for the giant snowman to spawn and fight it with the limited snowballs people collected.
Thank you for sharing the forgotten places in Maplestory! 👍
Man hidden streets were some of the coolest things back in OSMS. I remember being a low level, finding HHH packed with people and couldn't farm. Then I found like a weird mushroom forest in Henesys that was all orange mushrooms, regular mushrooms, and the occasional snail. There were platforms you could climb and sit to regen hp/mp. I only ever saw like one or two other people in it. I miss that so much man.
I fondly remember that period of time before the underwater area was released. We did just have that one partially flooded room and I remember just looking up KMS screenshots and just being excited at the new content we were about to get. My mind could be playing a trick on me for this bit of info, but I think you could press up on the entrance and would get a message saying that this area was not available yet in pink text. Every once in a while on my descents down Orbis tower I would visit the room and just look at that hole and let my imagination run wild on the fun I would have because I loved the idea of an underwater area thanks to Donkey Kong Country. I did not know HappyVille and Monkey Forest 2 received such huge makeovers because I stopped playing before those changes happened, but it was cool to see how much they did change.
talking about saving mesos from the obris tower reminds me of my MS journey. I know you didn't talk about aqua road yet but I also saved mesos as a kid. I would be done with Ludi PQ, go to helios tower, helios to go to Korean folk town, KFT to aqua road, aqua road to floor 1 of obris tower, go up to orbis, then at orbis i can take the boat back to ellinia. All that traveling took 30mins. I know that because i watched anime while doing that journey. All of that to save 5k mesos. Thanks to the trip down memory lane.
You job class videos are so informative - I’d love a video on Shadower and Buccaneer too if possible! Thanks so much!!
I have a character left in Happyville to this day and I login from time to time to see it. It's amazing
I'm so so grateful that your videos are so well made. It means a lot to me that you would put effort into this piece of our shared history, into this lovely game
and yes I think about happyville all the time, unprompted! It was so heartwarming and so amazing, decorating those trees with strangers will stay with me forever. The early internet was a truly special moment in time
togain is lore that i can re-live through mapleroyals
The memories I have of Happyville and Forest of Golems are unbelievable. I wish we could all just hop back into these servers again.
These videos are so well made. Thank you so much for making these Togain.
So much nostalgia
Lets go!!!! More nostalgia fuel to get me through the day.
10:33 man I haven’t related to something this hard in a long time 😂 absolutely love your videos man I’m so upset they changed maple story so much old school maple story still my #1 game of all time! Your vids made me reinstall I’m gonna try it out again and see what it’s all about now! Much love
I love the Happeville music. I refuse to let it fade by playing its theme in my DnD campaigns in a town mandatory for the plot. Its upbeat and energetic vibe sets a very eerie tone when you walk in and everybody is just...unnaturally happy.
I also miss the tree decoration and the awful grind for the ice chair. Best chair next to the floating Visitor one.
Dude I remember so vividly hunting thanksgiving turkeys in Rainy forest east of henesys.
Thank you so much for making these videos Togain! I honestly fall asleep to your videos every night, something about the soundtrack mixed in with your calming voice…
6:15... holly shit, i just love this map. I mean, in 2009, i didn't wanted to get very high level, because i thought those 50-70 (and 70-100) was such a sweet spot to play. I made a bunch of chars, and this place is very special to me.
That castle detail in El Nath BLEW MY MIND. Awesome stuff as always my man.
9:31 Interestingly, KoreaMS updated Orbis's quests back in March, and changed his dialogue here. They replaced his common NPC dialogue from "It's been almost 30 years since I stayed here..." to "How long has it been since I stayed here...?"
Happyville gave me so much nostalgia, and the music brings back such good memories. I remember back then I saw people sitting in ice chairs and I was so jealous since I couldn’t collect enough rascal snow pieces 😢
Please never stop making these videos. You keep the nostalgia of thousands of people alive in a very movie-like way.
I barely played Maplestory back in the day, but damn do I just love all these old school maplestory videos. Gives me the same kind of charming vibe old school Runescape does to me.
Dang, i distinctly remember training at the rainforest east of henesys trying to get to level 30 pre-big bang 😭
These videos are such a special treat. Thank you so much for the nostalgic pick me up that this video is. A nice little moment of happiness.
These videos holds a special place in my heart, even if I missed some of these maps. Love your work!
Wow, I had completely forgotten about Monkey Forest II and The Crown-Flyer, excellent picks and great video as always.
This is literally the only video series I look forward to on TH-cam. Thanks again for another video!
Happyville music always takes me back, I still have letters that you could put on the tree from way back when
These vids are already great, but the occasional Flyff track really draws out my feelings for this era of mmos. Thanks so much for making these!
episode idea:
masteria and the old days of bigfoot hunting where people would ks each other and sell leech. The old chimney training spots also. Haunted house used to be a hangout spot back then.
this video took me straight back to my childhood
Well I just started playing an OSMS Private server... This is so legit
7:00 forest of golem - iirc people actually do train til lvl 90 at this map because they clear really fast and the drops were decent, was it mokbi and another scroll? i think it was claw for att 60% or gloves for att 60%. it was still a hot spot between this map or coolie zombies before aquarium
Fun fact about the Tower when I first started playing the game, I randomly got teleported to some random area, and I didn't know fast travel was a thing, so I had to climb through that tower, it was a wild ride.
i wanna cry from all the nostalgia :')
I almost never leave a reply to videos, but just wanted to let you know I really enjoy your OSMS Maplestory videos and the amount of time and energy you put in it. Thanks!!
Happyville music hits like 1000 6th job stuns into feelings. Been here since EMS year one....am still here. Nekkid forever
love your work togain! i think a cool video idea for the OSMS genre would be the hardware players used to play on. i remember gaming on my old family computer as well as my friends computer. it always felt like we were at such a disadvantage when it came to progression. would love to see what hardcore progession players were using from 2005-2010 etc. im fascinated by a potential release of OSMS in 2024 because i actually have a decent rig to play on now lol
Your videos got me playing Royals again, so thanks for draining another 200 hours of my life
Oh man. That Happyville segment brought back memories of my old guild from back then. I wonder what happened to the Starburst crew from Bera. Kinda wish I kept in touch with all of them lol
Can't wait til MMV's are covered. If you ever cover fan projects about OSMS
Nice vid!!! But also keep updating us on Blastin!! :D
Love the flyff music there :D
I played Maplestory from 2003 to like 2010. If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them. Though it has been a long time.
i remember dying so much to the cold from going afk in ElNath
I just discovered your channel and love your editing style!
I was wondering how you learned how to edit? And if you have any tips for upcoming youtubers!
BACK WITH ANOTHER BANGER. THIS IS THE RANDOM INFO WE NEED
Fun fact happyvill maps where used for duping several times and part of the star force exploit to make the 597 stone tooth and 309 red craven
Can we get an old school Maplestory series going Pre BB? would be amazing!
You're a shining ray of OS Maplestory content!
i've been loving this series of old school map videos! how do u make the renders for these old school maps? especially for the diff happyvilles with the NPCs since i dont think you could just find all of them on like a private server that has them or smt
monkey forest 2 and bomb arrowing is why i go back to old school servers
orbis tower hits me right in the memories !! i used to love that area. is it gone now ??
The goat back again with another banger!
the tek back then was to die at like orbis tower level 7 to get returned to el nath
Damn, guess im not sleeping for another 28 minutes :)
Love these videos and the editing, looking forward for some more :)
thank you so much for these amazing content!
"Happyville doesnt come around anymore"
😢
remember hunting turkeys during thanksgiving events in those hene maps
Can confirm the pepe and feng map was one of my favorite maps to grind xp on as a F/P mage
do you know orbis tower used to be having just few floors and the entrance was at the end of cloud park VI (which located at the end of segement slope). the entrace looked exactly the same as the one in the orbis town
Nice videos and amazing commentary! Looking forward to more Maplestory videos! @togain
Amazing! Thank you togain ❤
maybe one day we will have an old school maplestory server. but i seriously doubt it maybe in the year 2050
Bro hit me withe the saint morning theme omg 8:50
Love this series so much
Maps with stuff in the foreground are so stressful!! I just spam Z as I walk past and always feel like I just saw a scroll drop or something
Soon we will be able to play old ms in maple world, cant wait XD.
Eyyy forest of golemmm
I remember my lv 26 warrior in 2005 wandered there when i got stuck in sleepywood and was trying to find my way out 😂
i fucking love these videos.
Thanks!
11:28 Is this true? I distinctly remember using a return to nearest town scroll in orbis tower and getting trapped in el nath cause I was too low a level to go back without getting killed
26:36 iremember as a kid there was a large israeli community in global maple so it was cool as a kid to see this type of stuff
werewolf toenail bug exploit, iykyk lol lvl 30-80 in 3 minutes 2006 era
"Huckles quest was written 20 years ago" that dealt critical Psychic damage to me ;-;
What a perfect channel
I remember fog KS wars back in the day.
Hey man. Love your videos! Could you please make a video of the most usefull "must do" quest in osms? ❤
your videos make me feel very conflicted whether I want to continue progressing on the current game or download an old school server and try to beat my 12 years old's record.
Oh, woah is that an FF remix? no wait, that's a chocobo theme! lol
Babe, wake up, new togain ms deep dive content just dropped. Commented, liked and subscribed.
I LOVE SLEEPYWOOD!!!!!!!!!
damn that's crazy I always pronounced henesys as Hennessy this whole time lmao
RIP Maladies
Could you do a video on Versalmas or forgotten quests?
Ah you left out the orbis tower music, it was actually pretty nice!
