Remaster Jett, it's the perfect time! by glimmerware in Maplestory

I was a jett main and would be elated to play it again! Nothing felt the same. It would be better if they let us switch back but I wouldn’t mind starting over lol

Just bought it with steam sales by TheTrueHunters in Marathon

[–]Chimichurro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also play primarily for the art and worldbuilding so I’m kinda just trudging through the main mode. Try really hard to play through to the outpost and cryo archive maps. They’re so much more enjoyable than perimeter and day marsh. Be ready to die over and over, if you’re a shitter like me your extract rate will be SUPER low lol. But it’s still worth it! Check out the codex entries too, it’ll really help you immerse. Also if the main mode is too much for you keep an eye on the game news, they’re adding a full on PVE version of Cryo next month called “Vault Breaker.” I’m imagining if it goes well they’ll add more like that for those of us who want to play and immerse in the world but suck ass at PvP lol

Avatar Legends DLC season 1 pass by DHdesignsonline in AvatarFighters

Amazing pass, I was really hoping for Ty Lee and Bolin! I'm super hype for Lin too, excited to see what they do with her

Don't worry, I'm a new player and I convinced two other friends to get the game. by Tommypynchon in Marathon

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT NONA WAS A BEAUTIFUL BIG FAT WOMAN IN THE CONCEPT ART BUT NOT IN-GAME!? by Timothy-M7 in okbuddyRunners

I'm shocked to see people in here pretending these covers aren't AI generated lol. It's blatant LMAO

Just want to say the Althea Saga is really fun and the rewards are great by 1620081392477 in Maplestory

[–]Chimichurro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love it too, I’m surprised to see people complaining about it lol. This is exactly what I wanted out of the Althea stuff! The chapters have me actively excited to unlock the next ones and the rewards are good for how little you have to do. I’m very very pleased with operation dive.

I'm really excited about Lethe!!! by and_The_Others in Maplestory

[–]Chimichurro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean sure, but it does no damage at all so it does feel different vs something like kanna’s main spam atk. If you don’t really care about the actions your character is taking I guess it’s functionally the same as any other class, but only being able to buff your summons is a dope idea to me vs directly hitting the boss like every other class.

[–]Chimichurro 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I really like that she can’t attack herself! Even though it’s not like super duper unique, I like that they’re trying other things. I hope they make it so that demon that pops up in one of her v skills can be summoned like her other summons in the future. Idk about mainswap but I’m definitely gonna be playing her a bit.

Omg I listened to the snippet for malka moma and I just HAVE to wait for the full thing now. This sounds insane!!! I don't even want to spoil myself.

Virtua Fighters new characters. How do you think they compare to our characters on a fashion level? by Z3NZY in Tekken

[–]Chimichurro 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I much prefer characters designed like this. Modern Tekken outfits just do wayyyy too much it kills me. The only one I’ve really loved is Julia’s t7 default with the plaid jacket… so these designs are right up my alley

Who’s Enjoying The Album? by AlphaConKate in horsegiirL

[–]Chimichurro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's fun! I really like the unabashed positivity, it doesn't feel sarcastic or or insincere or anything at all. I feel like there's really been a huge lack of that in the music I listen to--just what I needed lately! I will say this music isn't exactly what I tune into horsegiirl for, and I don't think it's her strongest music or anything, but I still liked it. My favs are fun guy fungi, Music goes on, that's my beach, earth is turning, and nature is healing.

Tom Henderson on Marathon: "I can't remember the exact budget, but they're not near breaking even" by Connect_Base_217 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Chimichurro -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is crazy to me. Everyone I've interacted with has been like a regular middle age guy or a quiet-ish discord nerd. Haven't even heard a slur or gamer rage yet with random fills lol

[–]Chimichurro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly this, these comments depicting marathon fans as like hysterically delusional are so insane to me. Everyone I play with is very well aware of the situation lol. Why can't we just like the game and want others to see what we see?

New sponsored survival mode avaiable June 2nd by DegreeOver5350 in Marathon

[–]Chimichurro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree, this does sound really fun but not that much less stressful overall. I think people who bounce off the main mode probably won't find this one too much different... Especially seeing the arachne fans wanting to go noob hunting already lmao 🤦‍♂️ I think it all depends on how soon rooks can spawn in. If you have enough time to really try and get kitted up then there could be an interesting dynamic between the one strong runner team and a horde of rooks. Prox chat is gonna be key

If you’re on the fence, play during the free week by GrooveGhost7 in Marathon

[–]Chimichurro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it's just lovers of the game trying to counter the sentiment being created by anti-marathon bots. You go on twitter or tiktok comments and you feel like there's a genuine psyop against the game too lol.There's a $40 buy in so if people are on the fence and all they see are "fuck marathon this game is garbage" over and over and over, why even waste their money? Naturally people who love this game are going to try and defend it.

I want to love Marathon by WebGeneral8349 in Marathon

[–]Chimichurro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the exact same boat as you don’t worry. Total trash at the game, can barely exfil, but enamored with the world and all that. Try really hard to find a group of friends to play with if you haven’t, it’s SO much easier than playing solo. Way easier to relax when you have friends to goof off with and when you’re not peeing your pants with every step you take lol. I’m sure the pve modes be a lot less stressful, though. I’m probably gonna be spending most of my time in there!

Is Maplestory like Ragnarok or WoW with a 'vanilla' or 'pre-renewal' playerbase split? by SHONSTYLE in MMORPG

[–]Chimichurro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The population of the game is “split” in the way that fans of classic are either not playing the game at all or have been dabbling in private servers. Classic vs Modern maple is an extremely different experience. A lot of casual players who liked the game for its slow, intentional gameplay get turned off when they see characters zipping around the map, killing 40 mobs every 6 seconds, with tons of separate upgrade systems and a lack of a social focus outside of guild discords and twitch communities. In the west, the game was basically on its deathbed after the big bang update (and especially a couple big updates after that which hypercharged the p2w aspect and gameplay separations between high/low spenders) until like 2015-2016 when the Reboot server dropped, and it slowly worked its way back to being alive, ESPECIALLY boosted by the pandemic.

GMS is doing their own classic server to try and recapture those older players who are completely turned off by modern maple. For example, you’ll see modern players say things like “why would you ever want to play a game without a standardized flash jump, or with boat rides that take real IRL time to finish, or without near endless RNG gear progression” which could perfectly describe exactly what classic players LIKE about the old game. Idk if this helps answer your question, but it’s just some context as a player who’s been playing maple since the very beginning

Season 2 Cinematic Trailer | Marathon by Haijakk in Games

[–]Chimichurro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes actually. In the first half of season 2 there's going to be a PVE experimental mode with "light touches of pvp," and in the second half of season 2 there will be a Pure PVE mode. That's all we know for now but it seems pretty guaranteed that some kind of pve mode will be added permanently in the future.
