Maple Story
You can explore a totally new and unknown world you have never been to, put on beautiful clothes and gorgeous accessories, and even attract other users in the process. You may begin the journey to explore the world of unknown alone, but you may come out on the other end with numerous new friends through hunting and chatting. If you're tired of hunting and competition, how about playing minigames with a friend for a change?
You'll become a brave adventurer protecting the Maple World, and if you're exhausted from all the intense battles and competition, you may one day build your own house at a quiet rural village, enjoying the life of a recluse who welcomes visitors.
At Maple Island, you will learn from the NPC's simple hunting skills and basic control of the game to help you ease into the game. Then, you'll board the ship that heads to Victoria Island, and that's where your journey REALLY begins.
From Lith Harbor that welcomes you from a long journey from Maple Island, you'll run into such fascinating towns as Henesys - the village of bowmen with comfy mushroom-shaped houses gathered together; Ellinia - the village of magicians with mysterious spells embedded between tall trees; Perion - the village of warriors with the fighting spirit typical of the Indians living in highlands; and Kerning City - the village of thieves that reminds you of the back alleys of dark cities.
You'll be playing the game at Victoria Island where all these diverse and unique towns and fields coexist.
Here, you are going to be just a regular gamer hunting down monsters and protecting yourself in the process. You'll be given 4 paths to choose from, 4 that will define your life in MapleStory: Warrior, Bowman, Thief, and Magician. Through leveling up and meeting some requirements, you'll be able to make job advancements and nurture your character in your own, unique way.

Bottom Line: Play it, But not by yourself. Then it gets boring to fast. Maplestory was the first 2D Mmorpg, And its very different to most other games. As long as you can stand its Highly Anime style graphics, Grind tastic gameplay, boring quests, Go get it now!
You start with a basic weapon (you choose what one you want at the start)Go through the excellent tutorial that should teach you everything you need to know, Then you get to the grinding almost immediately. sadly. For example, On your first day you could get to lvl14(ish) with out much trouble, But once you get to 30, All hell sets loose, Just to say that getting to its max level will take you 6+ years of hardcore grinding. And by then it's max level may have already got higher. Learning Curve: Takes a second
Gameplay:
