  This is really random and out of the topic, but people play mabinogi for the storyline?
  
  I must be one of few who doesn't because I have yet to play a MMO and pay attention to the storyline. I just kinda spam left click or esc as fast as possible lol. Although if it counts, I actually kinda read the part in G16 with the main character and Eirawen looking out from Belvast and yeah.

  I quit Mabinogi back in G8. And to be honest, if Mabinogi's story wasn't great, I probably would have never rejoined afterwards. Or I would've rejoined then just left.
  
  Mabinogi is like a cake that has really nice icing on the outside and looks great but the inside is very stale and not very well baked to begin with, but you still take a slice anyways because you want the icing. The storyline is the icing for me. It's what makes me wish Mabi continues to go on and last. If it didn't have it I would've just thrown out the cake and went looking for a better dessert.

  Now when I think of mabi's story I'll think of this

  Anyways, the story in mabi isn't too horrid. I mean its devcat, esp with mabi they've gone through several directors, several directions, and unlike vindictus the story isn't as robust. And its not like they have anybody on board who's a master of stories out of nothing (See: Wizet, Valve in TF2+Dota 2), but I'd much rather this jumbled story that somewhat fits the fact that its extremely disorganized. Its a fun mess of a game that's sandbox-y at its finest, but with no control of the box. And thinking on it, the whole milletian idea supports their insanity of a story.
  
  Eh, theorycrafting and possibilities aside, I stopped scrutinizing the jumbled story and started playing how the game's turned into hat-simulator ; typical anime trash without the garbage storyline edition. The story could be far WORSE, like the cookie-cutter shit that plagues half the market.

  True. Mabinogi isn't a great cake but at least it isn't a cookie.

  Since when did they make a story? Correct me if I'm wrong but MapleStory didn't even have a plotline at all until Nexon took over.
• Kapra wrote on 2015-04-28 09:15
  Also if you look at MapleStory now, their story is nothing to brag about.
  [SPOILER="MapleStory Story Spoilers"]
  So there's this young girl, she lives in a city in the sky. She is the empress of the entire planet. She's weak and frail.
  
  So there is this old girl who lives in a temple in the sky. She is an immortal and one step below god. She's weak and frail.
  
  So there is this wizard who is mortal and one step below god. He stole the power of the old girl who lives in the temple, and is looking for this tree.
  
  The wizard creates an false future where the young girl who lives in the city in the sky gets greedy and corrupts her soul when looking for the same tree he's looking for.
  
  So there is this young girl who lives underground. She is actually a tree. She is trapped there and is helpless. She is rescued and then goes to live with the young girl in the city in the sky. The young girl in the city in the sky eats the young girl from underground. She now becomes the next goddess. Oh yea, the young girl from underground who is also a tree is also alice from alice in wonderland and also created the wizard of oz in this big tower in the ocean.
  
  ???
  
  Who's Eunwol? Joking

  It's just what happens if a Game's story gets another Story Writer.
  
  Ragnarök Online was nothing else, the story wasn't obvious but there was a story about the World's End, many things lead towards it and eventually it happened. The Story wasn't Obvious but if you fiddled around you could connect all the small side quests to one hell of a story.
  
  Then they attempted RO2:Gate of the New World, it failed horribly because it didn't adapt the first game's story, the developers said "we don't want to finish RO1's story or adapt to it, we create a new Midgard." after it's being canceled (except in Japan where they liked it not being an actual sequel) they launched RO2: Legend of the Second....
  
  Now that game is so inconsistent with the First's Story that you don't really know what happens.
  
  A small Rundown
  
  [SPOILER="RO2: Legend of the Second Story"]
  So there is this Assassin, he has a part of Ymir's Heart in his chest, he's an orphan and was rescued by that Knight, he also has a best friend who also has a part of Ymir's Heart in his chest. BUT WAIT!
  
  He's actually the reincarnation of that Assassin Cross Ghost you fought in the first game. He's also an ally now.
  
  And now you fight the Freyjanity, but wait! weren't they crushed in the first game? Nope appearently the writers found a plothole and they're still here. They want to get their Goddess reborn by getting all the Reincarnations of the Vakyries, but they're actually all Priestesses! And you have to protect them!
  
  They also made experiments on Kids, they turned them into Monsters and guess what?! That Ant-Queen you fought in the first game that was said to have been born from the really awkward love of an Ant who wanted to be with a Human girl but the spell that turned him Human did not work on his offspring? Yeah fuck that weird Shit, that Ant-queen is now one of these experiments.
  
  Oh and Remember Arunafeltz and Schwartzvald from the first game? Yeah we don't so they appearently don't exist.
  
  Oh also we include another Race of small LoliShota Demons, they're actually corrupted Elves and live in Elenas which previously was Alfheim but hey nevermind that, also nevermind Alfheim was destroyed pre-RO1 and was never rebuild, oh and the Leader of the Noels also has that Ymir's Heart which was previously said to be split in two and implanted on those two orphans. yeah He has it now (no no it's a HE, ignore the flowing white hair and hints of a female shape, it's definetly a HE"[/SPOILER]
  
  i get a headache just writing that story.... They tryed to build up on the first game's story because people wanted it and now it's a mess of illogical things... but at least it has a nice Cash Shop system and it's Semi-fun to play.

  Wizet doesn't even exist anymore. So basically yes.

  Well, thats a bitta news to me. I literally haven't played maplestory regularly, even on a private server to escape the insanity of GMS, in over three years. All I really remember is them placing in something of a lore, wasn't a horrid piece of shit when it started, and then I took off.

  Some MMOs have good story lines and stay true to them. I'm looking at you Runescape, having grown and kept true to your storyline for over 10 years. They keep doing a great job expanding upon it too...
  
  Maplestory on the other hand? No just no.

  My head just hurts from how runescape has changed and the gigantic story. One day I'll go through its horrid wiki and see about finding out the story.
  
  Anyways, we're off topic. Anybody know exactly how long it supposedly extends music buff duration?
