5th job

Actually your right.

I'M ALWAYS RIGHT, LRN FASTR@@

The game is streamlining until like 140 or so. well maybe 130. but I disagree that is the full reason, cooped with making a bunch of characters. I think the problem is there isnt enough to explore. Well there is but the lvls for them are set during the "blaze past these lvls" Phase. so they remain untouched. And honestly I don't have a problem with blazing past a couple of levels. because some characters are just incomplete and stupid to play with at lower levels.

That's the problem though, you level TOO fast, it's limited to maybe 12 maps throughout your entire career, and only so you can fight the same 4 varients of the same bosses. I remember being at pig beach until I was level 30 BECAUSE I LOVED THE MUSIC. And yes, most "characters" are stupid below level 50, I mean you're stuck using a 1v1 move when the game has moved to mob's. It's dumb.

When I remember "the good old times" I remember alot of things. but the times that always reoccur were exploration based or fear. For me in maple, Grinding was just a filler to allow access to more exploration and fear. Exploration is self explainatory but fear isnt so much.
When I say fear I mean a couple of things.
1) Like the fear when you are exploring and your ACTUALLY SCARED of entering the next portal because you could die. so you pot up and close your eyes and hope for the best.
2) Fear when bossing. Think of the times of Big Foot pre-BB. I remember going there and being scared shytless until I got to the jumpquest. when you see the boss you just screem and and as fast as you can. And also with Anego and when her slap did like 15k. I remeber to start maxing achillies expecially for her and then have to make sure she was threaten 100% of the time too. and she still did like 9.5k~10k slaps.

Tauromaci's comes to mind.

They should add more maps that you have to go to. Or at least the same maps but cater to different jobs. Like for crusaders few mobs high exp, and drk is many mobs but slightly lower hp. so its a different experience. And add more bosses that progress from 100~200. since 4th job now starts at 100. What would be great would be if they used Jr. Balrog or something and you fought at lvl 100, then crimson balrog at lvl 120 or so and then Geist Balrog at 130 or something, then Nex Balrog at 150 and make like Ultimate Balrog at 170. So you see this kind of evolution and you feel like your enemies are growing stronger just as you are. Also adds for a cool story.
