[Blog] Maple Stories - The Stirge of All Alienkind

[Raul]

Well to start with they're obviously trying to get Lianium ore from our world with the Galactodrill, which would sadly destroy our planet in the process.

[Viaje]

Would... they really do that? What will become of all the old quests? No more warrior thrones? Destroyed storyline? What is this?! QQ

That'd be absolutely insane!

Can you imagine if Nexon suddenly decided to change up the entire game, removing and changing quests, changing maps, and making old items unobtainable.
I can't even envision something like that happening...

[danielcatu]

Oh snap. I'm suspecting this version of NLC will replace the old one.

everyone get their blue seats and gloves att scrolls before nexon screw something again!

'Gugluggon' and 'Glorp' just start with the letter 'G'.
That's pretty much all they have in common.

Actually, it's the g, using only u and o as vowels, l between g and vowel, and a different consonant to end the name on both.

He might be on to something. As obvious and completely unimportant it may be.

[Balrog]

My Theory: If the destroyed NLC town is there when you enter the map, it's most likely an event.

If it isn't, it's most likely a future based area.

[Chicocl]

Actually,I would like if some Black wings are involved in this by helping us, because after all those aliens are trying to destroy the world that the black mage is trying to conquer.

I wouldn't mind it.

Let's get a fresh new start on NLC =]

Though, if it is replacing the old one, would it be replaced later on w/ a re-built one? o.o

Hoping it doesn't just turn out to be an event =/

I'm sorry, but I don't see a 'u' in 'Glorp'.
A word ending in a consonant is also remarkably unspectacular.

Can I get a tl; dr.

The beginning of the story brought back memories to the end of The Dark Knight for some reason..

Im interested to see where this is going though...whether it is permanent or not, and whether the current NLC will be replaced. I wonder if there'll be a chance it'll be like Future Erev, where a portal takes you into "Future NLC" or if it'll be a replacing of the current one. Oh, and what happens to CWKPQ?

maybe cwk and haunted house will not get any change after all

as I said before this patch they only announced half of the revamp not like ascension so maybe we will get another upgrade after that second part

I kinda want the Yetinx portal to be the gateway.

It is pretty much clear by now this is NOT going to be a future area. All of the hints are at the present tense. IE: Something is brewing.

[MrTouchnGo]

his manly belly jiggling with fire,

Cutscene please.

[Kirov]

So I guess we will get a quest to rescue Stirgeman and Rob... I'm getting flashes of the 1960's Batman show, Adam Weeeeest.

Why is it all these invaders are always after some sort of Crystal or Ore?

inb4 this is actually what we know as crystanol, the insane power source of future maplestory, and them aliens came to steal it, and then mid event the visitors come in and we whoop ass with our future versions!

YEAAAAAAAH.

YEAAAAAAAH.

inb4 this Maple Stories is completely unrelated to what will actually happen in-game (just like the other ones have been) and we are simply getting a destroyed NLC main town w/ an extra map that transports us to the visitor PQ.

If this is an event, I'd imagine there will be few permanent effects.

I still don't think this has anything to do with the Visitors.

I will, however, throw my money in the "Inverted Avatar plot rip-off" pot.
Basically, stick-men are the humans and Maplers are the blue people.

The aliens could have been accidentally giving off their presence during the course of the time lapse between present MS and when they actually attack. They may have been studying us beforehand.

note: any and all posts i make about visitors are a joke, if visitors DO end up appearing somewhere in this, i'll be the most shocked of you all.
