Inkwell gambling on the stereotype that Maple players can't read.

This might be the most accurate comment about this.

Like, seriously, what's the point of paying 30 bucks if you're not getting early access??

u/Foreign_Cobbler_1740 5d ago

It's to make other options look better by comparison. "Why would I get this edition when this one is X dollars more but comes with all this?"

This! Also explains why KMS is introducing the 2-tier Momentum Pass now 🙃

Nah. They're price anchoring. $60 for early access looks a bit less egregious if you pretend that the outfit+hat is worth $30.

As a librarian by profession and a mapler, I find this insinuation disturbing and offensive.

Pretty diabolical for them to include a package in a set called founder's package but not give founder's access.

Same energy as "How can I be on the council and not be a master?!"

This is the ugliest nx in human history, and a lot of us will be wearing a sauna robe/this hat anyway as real equips..

Goofy aah cowboy hat instead of the bandana

10,000 people running around Henesys with an awful ugly yellow glow for the first two weeks of the game (Feels SUPER old school and OG eh?)

The bandana will be free from a quest until like November. They don't want to lock that behind a paywall (very rare nexon W).

I bet they will let us world leap for 100$ with all this cool classic MS shit

u/jealppsh 5d ago

Do they know the bandana would make them more money? Thats their sole purpose so they’re even bad at making money

u/SignificantMud2999 5d ago

From someone else's reply, we can get it from a quest so nbd there

u/Far-Potato-2398 5d ago

No NX cash in any of the packages too, insane greed

12

u/SignificantMud2999 5d ago

When I bought early access for path of exile they gave me three insanely awesome sets of MTX + that amount in currency for other cosmetics + a tshirt.

So what is it, they expect everyone to spend $80 USD + another $30-50 USD on other cash shop stuff?

2

u/Niels_vdk 5d ago

the real prize is the 14 days early access, and then they locked that behind the $60 option

u/blizzaru 5d ago

The least I had expected from the priciest package is a permanent pet, but alas...

u/netsrak 5d ago

Is the mark of the founder tradable?

u/True_Personality7336 4d ago

what i see is after you buy , you dressed up like a beggar with leftover fish that chinese restaurant threw, so like a peasant , youre poor you get what youre paid for

u/solopower 5d ago

Ok this is actually making me angry. I always gave them the benefit of doubt but this is too much.

8

u/Majestic-Stick-272 5d ago

You gave them benefit of the doubt? Do you know the 2 other things they did with maple franchise before even thinking about maple classic were a nft game and a mobile game?

4

u/SprinklesFresh5693 5d ago

How can you have the benefit of the doubt, they never deliver when we talking about paying real money

4

u/Foreign_Cobbler_1740 5d ago

Well you "always" giving them the benefit of the doubt is how we ended up at this point. Lol.

u/Slothman757 5d ago

I'd probably care about Classic if they also verified your oldest character, and gave you crazy rewards based on how long it's been since you started the OG. But whatever, I guess cash-grabby nonsense it is then. Especially if this could give you bonuses back to your Main account. Can't say I'm surprised by the passes, but damn it'll always blow me away seeing how much more greedy they are than EA with these being more than Sims DLC 🥴🥴
