      @@StebenL Yeah, legitimately such an awful developer. Advertised wrong drop rates on an item you could buy with real money too, and when called out, deleted all talk of it in the Discord and Reddit. The code said 1% drop rate, he said 2%. Never addressed. Added in more and more awful monetization over time despite saying he wouldn't go that route, and just overall is incredibly arrogant. I loved IdleOn, but he made it easy for me to stop playing.

      @@StebenL fomo doesn't really matter considering the game is pretty much just a single player experience though. as long as you play somewhat actively you'll be stuck in endgame sooner or later, waiting for new content updates to drop. the only thing that could truly be considered mandatory is the auto loot pickup which costs 5 bucks if i remember correctly, everything else can either be unlocked for free just by playing or is irrelevant. i can understand fomo and p2w arguments for normal mmo games where you directly compete with other players via pvp, trading and whatnot, but you can't do anything like that in idleon, so i don't really see the problem. even as a full free to play i've been done with all w6 systems for like half a year now so i'm in the same waiting room as all those people with the fomo stuff and their doot pets, no real difference.

    The version of RO you played is called renewal, and is to RO what big bang is to Maple. If you want to really experience RO, I would recommend you play pre-renewal on a private server to get a better feel for what the game was closer to launch. A lot of people would consider renewal to effectively be the hollowed out corpse of Ragnarok being worn as a skinsuit by a themepark MMO.

    I will say I'm glad you mentioned the visceral satisfaction of Maplestory's combat - it's what makes it really click with me. From level 1 (or 10 if you're one of those special classes) to level 300 it is a game about one thing: vaporizing innocent, adorable creatures with gigantic hitboxes that make lots of big numbers and cool sounds happen. And I fucking love it! It's basically an incremental game, you grind literally for the opportunity to grind more.

There was also MU online which i couldn't get into, Archlord had such a cool premise, and a lot of cool songs, AION online was also amazing. Trickster online is where i got my IGN to this day, as one of the top players was the same name i still use on EVERYTHING. Mabinogi -- i never actually played this game correctly, i'd just sit and play my lute for hours trying to mimic the Velvet Room theme from Persona in-game. Man, the list goes on, and i have so many core memories of me absolutely no-lifing my middle and high school days on these games. I could list so many more just off of memory, too -- but these are *some* of the ones that stick out to me. IJJI, Gpotato, Webzen ect... man those companies sucked, but they were a staple for me.

    Korean mmos hold a close place in my heart as it was something i did when taking a break from Phantasy Star Online, Everquest, or FF11.
    I remember so many, my favorite "Uncharted Waters Online", that might be a Japanese MMO though. There was a bunch of weird outliers Like R.O.S.E and their mech riding merchants, Ace(or space cowboy) with everything being around flying, to Atlantica and it's grid based team building, Heroes of Three Kingdoms with classes having units following them around, and finally Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine. Where demons don't matter because builds revolving around the PC were turbo overpowered.
    There is so many that I remember playing but never their names. A Mecha mmo with two factions (split between Earth and Mars), a game about a martial arts high school, and so many more.

    I love your vids and your editing and production is out of this world.
    But you did Trickster sooo dirty here. While a lot of the information you got about it is true, you just skipped some of the key aspects of the game in general.
    The day/night cycle was impactful (certain npcs showed up / banished, one of the bosses was only accessed during night time, etc) and was not just an aesthetic change.
    Most classes get more in depth right after the 2nd job change which is one of the easiest tasks to get done, going even further into the 3rd job. For example, raccoons were one of the most interesting jobs I came across in any mmo, an evasion tank with card-based skills and a lot of crowd control.
    I do agree with you saying that you maybe didn't have the patience to get any further into it, but man, you left out A LOT.
    Besides Trickster, everything was so heartwarming to hear and revisit. Thank you so so so much for this!

    I don't remember playing Flyff in my childhood, Trickster I played a little but never got very far... now Ragnarok I played a lot but on private servers
    If I had to choose the most memorable MMOs from my childhood, they would definitely be Maplestory, Grand Chase and Pirate King... and Cosmic Break a little later.(Ragnarok, Wonder King, and several others still had their moments but none of them come close to the other 4)
    I miss how these games used to be

    Togain bro, did you ever play Wonderking and La Tale? Anyone who likes cute cozy korean MMOs would have loved them. Unfortunately their private server scene is dead compared to Maple, Trickster, and RO so they're both pretty forgotten nowadays.

      WonderKing was honestly so damn fun back in the day. I managed to hold rank 1 during two of the closed betas and the PvP scene was actually kinda enjoyable for a while before things got a little nutty with the hacks.
      OGP LaTale was such a fun time, honestly... I loved that game with my very soul. I still think about Mushudragon and miss the guy dearly.

    One of the funny thing is that the other branch of the Assist in FLyFF - The Billposter, have the strongest single target skill in the game - Asalraalaikum. Most attack skill in the game have a linear and simple formula that scale off their main attack stat and damage. However, Asalraalaikum have an unique formula that scale off 3 things: ((((Str/10) * Skill Level)*(5 + Current Mp/10) + 150)*0.2) + Player Attack. So what happen is that Force Master(Billposter's advanced 4th job) players would run a build with a bunch of %Max MP and flat MP, coupled with a few STR line as a one shot build/boss killer build.

    Philippines cyber cafe/ computer shop theres different eras where a certain game dominated and almost everyone play.
    Counter strike - late 90s to early 2000s.
    Ragnarok online - early 2000s to late 2000s.
    Dota - late 2000s to mid 2010s.
    Mobile legends - mid 2010s to present. In mobile, i have no idea what people play now in cyber cafe
    Starcraft, red alert and MU was popular too in 2000s, RAN online and Cabal in 2010s but definitely not even close to popularity of the 4 other games

    Late to the conversation but, I played RO religiously in the early 2000s with my friends. What was crazy is that we were all skateboarding during the day and then gaming at night. RO fit in because it was something chill to play after skateboarding and playing games like Counterstrike, day of defeat, and all of the rest. It just hit right at those hours. It was a beautiful experience.

    Amazing video, I fondly remember growing up with Windslayer which to this day has my favorite pixelized aesthetic, similar to Ragnarok, but I mainly played LaTale from when I was like 12 to about 18, with Windslayer sprinkled in between but not for nearly as much as it got the short end of the stick in terms of 2000's korean MMOs as it got completely shutdown and didn't get popular enough for private servers to keep it alive, although curiously enough the files for the game are out there up for grabs which I found when randomly googling the game when reminiscing! LaTale is still up today although I don't enjoy it at all anymore, anyone that boots it up quickly finds out why, got shoved with overcomplicated systems to the point of no recorgnition while also becoming super complicated.. a shell of what it used to be, an expected result of being a korean MMO that's been since the 2000s and constantly updated like MapleStory. Funnily enough WindSlayer actually got a sequel somehow, with "upgraded" graphics, which were just smoother pixels with an art style more leaning on 3D which wasn't as charming and spme QoL, but that sequel also fell behind shortly after the first unfortunately. I noticed you've already shown LaTale in the vid so you already know about it as it's more popular due to the OGPlanet days and a closer copy of the gargantuan MapleStory, but PLEASE look into WindSlayer 1 and 2 ♥

    Summer, 2007. Transitioning from 6th to 7th grade. I stumble across a game on the internet called MAPLESTORY. I tell 3 of my neighbors (1 of them hates it) and we get absolutely addicted to this game until the 2010 big bang. The nostalgic days of daring to leave the neighborhood to go to 7-11/CVS just to buy a Nexon Game Card with the little Kart Rider guy on it. The yelling from our parents, the late night bike ride I did for my friend because his mom banned him from buying Nexon Cash. The sleepovers with Laptops, the non-existent sleep we got due to grinding Kerning PQ all night, the endless conversations we had about 10% scrolling our Work Gloves and Sauna robes, our neighbor un-inviting us to his birthday party because he hated Maplestory that much (LOL), this girl we met online named Rachel5000 from the bay area and we all hung out in the Henesys Pet Park in one party. I cannot express how much fun I had with this MMO as a kid. It will always have an extremely fond place in my heart. RIP Old Maple. I think about it from time to time. So many awesome memories. I wish I could go back sometimes

    Togain, you cooked with this one. Your hard work REALLY paid off... it was also interesting for me to see how eerily similar our experiences were: always picking the spear/dragon knight class when available, exploring, maining Maplestory but dabbling in Flyff and Trickster, and later trying Ragnarok as an adult. It also sounds like you played some FF14 too, which I recently had a huge binge of before the last expansion came out and sucked. Anyway, sincere thank you from your forever fan; keep up the amazing videos!

    The art was definitely a huge part of what attracted me to downloading mmos back in the day, despite the game usually not looking anything close to that most of the time it still gives you a much cooler representation of your character/class in your head. I played a lot of flyff too, and a little bit of ms and ro. first thing i always did was look at the classes and how cool they looked when deciding to try f2p mmos, though i ended up trying pretty much all of them regardless cause no money :)

    Gosh I loved Trickster Online... I sadly couldn't get far but!!!.. the grind and art was an awesome experience; which is then how I viewed other MMOs. My friend paid for WOW years back but was in love with FLYff and even more with Trickster/Maple Story. (he was the one that showed me these games). I did try MapleStory and thought it did look pretty but for whatever reason I couldn't get into it(I should try again)...but I did adore MapleStory 2; was so sad it closed down.
    I still like Asian MMOs to this day; Im happy fans keep some of the old games alive via private servers
