I've played MapleStory back in beta, and a little after official release.
I honestly didn't want to play after I got a level 20 rogue cuz it was a grindfest after that, and I decided to quit.
That was a few years ago back in grade 10, and I never went back to it again.
Silkroad I played during the second semester of grade 10, and I quit after not having a stable connection with any server.
So I stopped playing that too. I was at level 14, and was going to become a thief.
For now, I've found 2 good MMORPGs to stick to, and as of right now, grinding is minimal.
Runes of Magic is pretty fun, I have a level 10 Rogue Warrior.
Am also playing Requiem Bloodymare, which is pretty cool, and I'm a level 11 rogue.
i don't have any abilities right now because I didn't buy any, and double slash won't work with dual weapons.
And yes, your allowed dual swords in Requiem, which is something that stands out, but it's only for rogues and assassins and such.
Also these MMORPGs are free, so might as well try them if time is available.
And I usually find myself enjoying MMORPGs when I am DPS or Tank, both if possible, cuz ii like getting in the midst of it and doing damage.
And, for the 2 mmos i play, I only play on PvP servers.
