    Default MapleStory 2 'confirmed' by Nexon

    Here is the document, straight off the corporate website -

    http://ir.nexon.co.jp/cms/pdf/news1179206693609361.pdf

    Take a gander at the top of page 19. You should see this:


    Of course, who knows if it will ever get out of development... But, look at the image for a minute and you can see that it appears to be a 3D sidescroller.

    At first I was coming into this expecting "Oh great they ****ed the game up so bad they have to start it over" But this looks like a legitimate improvement and looks like it could be a lot of fun.

    Personally, I am not going to hold my breath for a release. Nonetheless, I would really like to see it completed.

    Anyone actually look through the other slides?
    Nexon's made a cool $1.8 billion through Maplestory alone; another $1.5 billion through Dungeon Fighter. (+random hundreds of millions with other games)
    In the last year alone NexonNA made approximately 80 million USD, which is crazy insane..

    "80 million USD"

    That actually isn't that much in terms of how you determine your company's standing in the US economy. 100 million and less is only a medium sized corporation. Internationally, they are doing much better but the NA company isn't living up to par with the other parts of their corp.

    It sounds more than it is... If it was £80,000,000 though WOO!

    Anyway, I have a feeling it's going to be one of those games that looks amazing, but is really really bad... Inb4 EU ban on creation.
    That is if it ever gets anywhere.
    Spoiler!

    kNexon is making 320 million USD per year (which is growing rather quickly), and combined they're making about 1.2 billion USD per year.

    Considering none of their games are subscription based (and more or less voluntary), I would consider that a huge sum of money.

    $80M is justified for how irresponsible NexonA tends to be.
