    Default Out of these two games, what would you reccomend?

    I'm having a hard time choosing between Maple Story or Granado Espada

    Anyone have pros/cons of each? Maple Story seems fun, but I heard its a huge grind? And Granado Espada seems fun, but not sure...

    thank you

    Imo, Maplestory.

    GE is a grindwhore too, and controlling 3 characters is lame.

    I don't like either of them, so choose based on your graphical interest.

    Maplestory is heart attack grind with no PvP so endgame is uninteresting. I don't know much about GE.

    Personally, I would have to say neither. Both got boring fairly quickly to me.

    If I would have to pick one, I would say MS, merely for the fact that it is easy to set up on a controller.

    GE I just found too grindy and boring(Of course this applies to MS as well), it didn't seem to offer as much as I hoped for.

    I also would say neither, both get boring fast just endless grinding but GE has nice graphics and PVP but the K2 version is B2P/P2P+Itemshop and the other english version is B2P with itemshop i've heard.

    Maple Story. Both games are pure killing but in Maple Story you can play for free, only two versions of Granado Espada are free and neither of them are in english.

    meh neither, get ghost online which is just a better version of ms heh really tho i'd prlly say ms. GE was ok but I didn't stick with it too long, ms is kinda cool but if your looking for a side scroller i'd check out ghost online. got to 23 and can't play ms anymore because it doesnt' have run heh.

    i'd go with GE on the basis tat its not as much of a grind as maple, though controlling 3 sucks in my opinion but it might be fun for you, plus you never have to spend hours lookin for a party...

    as for maple its too much of a grind for me and not too fun to play after a while of playing it

    Simply MS. Ye GE has just amazing graphs, loved it, but controlling 3 chars totally sucks. Ye in both games I dont see anything interesting, like true goals ( pwn at PvP, PvB, GvG, lol and others... ), so, hz, play 2moons or Perfect world, when they come out )

    Go with MapleStory! Who cares about grind? The point of games is to waste time anyway.

    i dunno i say try maple first becuz of short download. You either really love maple or really hate it. even if u do like maple try GE too :3 People say there is a lot of grind in maple but there is a private server probably coming out for it with 15x exp which will make it fair with free cash shop items.

    http://maplehub.ath.cx/viewforum.php...e3e09420b76287

    or u can just search private servers for maple on google. Maple is also very simple and GE might seem complex. Maple was my first game :3

    Funner is a word. However, it's not quite as formal as "more fun." I would say this is an informal setting so it's perfectly acceptable to use. A lot of words and phrases are used in every day speech they we wouldn't write in a paper for school or something.

    MS if you wanna smack your keyboard over and over for months at a time to level. GE if you wanna click a couple buttons and go AFK so the game can play itself. Both suck imo.

    i asked nearly the same question once, and i got this one reply from someone...the only way for u to decide, is to try both and fgiure it out for yourself...what other people think isnt the same as what u think...you might love GE when u play it, and hate MS, while someone here is exactly the opposite...so...what im trying to say is, make the decision yourself...but for the record, i say GE...

    funner is not a word. Most likely the word you're thinking of is funnier which isn't a real word either, but is still used on a wide basis. Fun, funnier, funniest... Funner has no meaning whatsoever and is a result of peoples lacking english skills, and I have only seen it amongst people on the internet.

    if people use it, it's a word. Do you understand what someone means when they say it? of course, so it is a word people use. It's not grammatically correct, but who worries about grammar online?
