How and Why Play Maple Story - A Beginner's Guide to Maple Story

With all the jobs and daily troubles we have to go through it seems nearly impossible to simply sit down, relax and forget about all the things that annoy us throughout the day. In some cases it even seems impossible to get your mind off your problems, not to mention unwind. Why not make a trip into a different universe and simply play a computer game?

It must be a long time since you last played a game so why not try one now - I frankly recommend Maple Story. What you first need to know about Maple Story is that it is a free, 2D MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role-playing game). As I just mentioned the game itself is free, but there are several enhancements that can cost you real money at times. It just depends on your tastes and needs.

Mainly within this game, you can interact just like within any other MMORPG (take World of Warcraft as an example). You can chat and interact with other player, but the game itself is played as a RPG, therefore you have to fight your way through monsters and puzzles. Compared to many other RPGs you do not start, as anything but just as a beginner - from this point on depending your actions and choices you will develop into a certain character.

This can be rather intriguing especially if you were used to picking your character and developing it from that point on - but it is a rather interesting perspective. Another intriguing and interesting thing is the fact that in order to generate statistics for your character you have to roll the dice - again something you do not find in typical MMORPGs.

Maple Story is a different type of MMORPG from anything you ever played before so why not unwind a bit and simply play it. Start out here: http://videotesting.info/maple-story/
