I feel like Nexon Korea for the most part knows what they are doing, and when NexonAM releases new content it just ends up being buggy and not so great. I remember when NLC first came out, and I was excited, but it ended up being disappointing. Same went for all of the other Masteria content:They made the thing of course it's gonna be "amazing"also it's meant to be a chore, it's suppose to be in depth. Also if you pay attention to the story line, the robots make PERFECT sense.
The map layouts are odd and some very inconvenient, some of the monsters don't even fit the area (I.M. Robots or whatever they are called), very little quests and the few that there are often have low drop rates of items and some of the monsters are harder to find (It was either the blue or purple elephants. Don't know what they are called), some areas are very hard to navigate (Mansion and Crimsonwood Forest. Some of you may say that it is easy to navigate once you've gotten used to it, but it should be easy to navigate in the *first* place, not a chore).
The only positive things I can really say about Masteria content is that EXP is good and the rewards for the quests are decent.
I just feel like Nexon Korea thinks out their areas better and fine-tunes them more. Their content is generally just more aesthetically-pleasing. I'd take the art (and the quests) of Ariant, Time Temple or Leafre over Masteria any day. And honestly, they just have more experience making content, no one can argue that.
Anyway who remembers this poem for whats coming in 2010:http://maplestory.nexon.net/News/News.as...ntNo=005vt
I'm going to quote the parts that interest me and make me thing the most.
NEXON Wrote:"Now Balrog!Now Dunas.Now, Scarlion and VEXEL!Auf Haven!NIBERGEN! On Zakum and Horntail!"Vexel-Who's Vexel? Not released yet. Or it could be Krexel from Ulu City, or maybe not..
From Lith Harbor to Nautilus! From Perion to VERSAL
Nibergen-In Neo City hes called NIBELUNG, could this be NEXON's way of adding in Neo Tokyo too?
Versal-Obviously Masteria, if they didn't mean anything by it why say it? They could have just said NLC.
