    Remember when:
    *Leveling was so hard, everyone said “Grats!” when you did
    *Everyone at Free Market spammed with @@@@@@@@ to outcompete others’ chat boxes
    *Omok Game Board used when you were AFK
    *Getting scammed by mofos through trade and sending mesos to strangers because you were gullible
    *Having Icicles and collecting different throwing stars
    *Dexless sins had Big Dick Energy
    *Spamming “JPQ”
    *Trying to jump to the middle sewer at KPQ
    *Using /find to track those sneaky asshole who got into party quests
    Everyone comment your best nostalgic Maplestory moments 😢😢

      Dropped after a few months because my laptop at the time was laggy to the point where it was unplayable
      Fast forward to 2010 when my classmates in highschool were making skits in Maplestory for class (lol)
      That marriage system gave them a lot to work with
      Reentered Maplestory in 2012 and tried to level a Mercedes. Remembered it was a huge accomplishment to hit lvl 95 Q_Q
      Quit after a year to take care of irl stuff
      Now quarantined and I've come back to check the game back out lol.

      yogg789 I remember back in 2008 I was 14. My mind was blown how real time everything was. Boat arrivals, time schedules everywhere. The travel to Ludibrum for the first time. It felt like I was going far away from home, a different world... so nostalgic. Amongst my travels I met new faces, friends and rivals guilds.. it was a wholesome. My guild was activily rivaling the other one to the point we genuinely hated each other but in a friendly matter, like if I saw someone from the other guild making some gains or losses the leader would clown the rivalling leader haha.. we always knew who the new members were, who defected us in the hard times joining an other guild, everything. think Maple Story was the best possible mmorpg to unintentionally roleplay in.

    Man, this nostalgia gives me such a rush of emotions.
    Starting my own Guild and being recognized as a top Guild on the server.
    The day I hit 200 and having everyone around me spamming showing love and the announcement it would show everyone playing that I hit 200. Random people whispering congratulations.
    Getting married in APQ with someone I fell in love with that I never even physically met.
    The obvious ones like KPQ, LMPQ, the carnival, just spending all those days grinding.
    Then it all just went downhill when my character got hacked and someone stole everything and then got petty and went back and deleted my character. That was a painful day, as dramatic as it sounds, you're a kid and that's your life's work essentially all gone. Hackers were so wild and prominent back then.
    What's crazy is a fellow guildmate I found out recreated my character and leveled it back to 200 for me. He's forever someone no matter how much time passes and we don't speak, will forever hold a part in my heart. I actually just messaged him after watching this to check in.
    I'm almost 29 now, and I was 18 when I stopped playing. People thought I had a real issue with how much time I spent on Maple, but this was some of the best memories of my life.

    2011 was such a Golden Age for me in this game. Super wealthy, OP character, huge Guild with tons of friends. I remember having a Protege, and giving him my old gear for free every time I upgraded it, the guy was so happy. And I remember getting the permanent Dragon mount, and people losing their minds when I rode through populated towns. A few months ago I jumped back into the game to see how things were after years away from it, and now I'm essentially broke, my main class is obsolete, and my once OP gear is average at best LOL.

      Mostly agree, played since late 2006, but it was also really refreshing around 2008-2011 when MS introduced a TON of new stuff (pirates + resistance) and Carnival PQ, so it was a nice change in that sense but yea after 2011 it started to die off for me when they just blindly added new classes and as a result, all the classes lost their meaning and value in a way.

    there was a period after big bang when game was still super fun PQ were still booming, leveling was still challenging enough and party areas at high levels were popular and a fun place to meet friends... to me that was the peak of maple. Before that was nostalgic but had many issues... and after that became the game it is today which you cant even play late game without p2w and you speed to lv 200 in a couple days entirely solo then just buy gear and log in to do your dailies..

    Gets me all teary eyed thinking about the old maple. All the good memories and careless nights of just grinding/meeting new friends and talking to them until 4am. I still know some of my good maple buddies but something just isn’t the same. I think it’s because we’re all grown up now we have responsibilities and not as much free time to just be worry free. A feeling like old maple is legendary and nothing can bring back the nostalgia like it does. Ahhh I sure do miss it. But life moves on and it really is once in a lifetime feeling that I’m glad I had. Thank you Nexon.

People were so nice, they were willing to help out new players, saying congrats when we leveled up and even gave out high leveled items for free. I loved my friends that I made in game and will forever remember the fun times we had. The adventures of going to sleepywood while being low leveled, orbis, and going on the boat and getting killed by Barlog. Thank you Maplestory!

I was a die hard video game player even though I would never call myself an expert. I used to skip whole days from school just to play. I remember my first character was a female warrior and that free hairstyle coupon gave me that darn bowl undercut. My sister getting an i game boyfriend. And then quitting because our pc couldn't handle the new patches. And then playing in again when I was in my 2nd year in university. I remember being confused big time because everything had changed. And after getting to my later years in uni with all the subjects I had to take and the mock board exams. I just quit and haven't played since. And checking it out now, it'll never be the same childhood game I loved.

    I remember when I first started playing in grade school in 2004-2005, there was only one world, "Tespia." There were only 4 classes, and if I remember correctly Orbis wasn't even around then, let alone all the other maps besides Maple Island and Victoria Island. I wanted to be a mage, but because I didn't know better, I added all my SP into strength so I could level up faster in the beginning, only to realize I had permanently messed up my character stats. I also maxed energy bolt instead of magic guard, so I also never was able to take much of a hit from stronger monsters. I quit around level 36 after 2nd job advancing to a cleric since it became so hard to level up, but I will never forget when the times were simpler, no one knew what they were doing, and we just had fun exploring a brand new world. Thanks for posting videos like this coppersan to bring back the nostalgia!

I journeyed through different maps, became close friends with Henesys potion shop lurkers, dated two girls online from maple, visited the free market a million times each day, and even saw a marriage for my best friend in game too. So many good times...
    Now I’m a lot older and I went back to Reboot and nothing feels the same anymore. Even while playing with my current gf I’m so disappointed that everything is more boring than before and there’s no excitement left aside from the leveling and skills and what not.

    beeing proud of yourself if you managed to get into a pq, despite having people with autoclickers there aswell
    when guild system got released and upgrading your guild cost a sh.t ton of mesos
    seeing real GM's roaming around henesys
    training at forest of golems
    you was considered pro when you had 10wa workgloves
    hunting 1600 cursed dolls for a quest (where i got to know my first crush via maplestory hahaha)
    and many. many. more wonderful memories :)

    One of the most amusing things i find about being a maplestory fan is that im only 6 days older than the GMS release but its still the game i know from the longest time. gotta give a shout out to my dad who prob downloaded it for my brothers.

    Damn watching this makes me realize how long it has been since certain pieces of content were added. I've been playing for so long.

    I remember playing the OG maplestory back in first grade. That was in Korea in 2004. I'm 22 now and in the US. Time sure does go by fast. Feeling very nostalgic, thank you for this video

    This game means a lot to me, to you, to us. But I always wish that someday we would have a small interview with the game development team, the game artist who are always with us to created this world and childhood story, I wonder what this game means for them and how can they make this game feel so special.

    I cant even watch this whole thing, great video but shit this just takes me back to way better relaxing times, i cant even think about it too much its almost emotional :( i played wayyyy too much, watched all the famous animators, even bought green creams wuppo game, the community used to be so great, they all started fast traveling and hardcore grinding all the time to the point it just died out for me.

    I don’t think I heard you mention the Ultimate Adventurers phase of maple where you could rebirth your Cygnus classes to a full class with a bonus skill. Sad that many people don’t know about this since they took it away shortly after.
