Okay, I have played Maplestory, am currently trying WonderKing, and also have turned my attention to LaTale. Now I can't decide between the three, so I was hoping to get some UNBIASED data on which your prefer and why in the following aspects of the game: 1) End Game Material 2) Competition between players/guilds (can be guild wars, guild quests, party vs. party, pvp, whatever) 3) Good amount of players and a social community 4) Active mods and intelligent/caring management (as in they won't release new material that totally ruins the old people) Thanks! P.S. In LaTale, is there HP washing like in Maplestory? If you don't know what that is, in maplestory, when you wear Intelligence equips upon leveling, your Mana increases extra. You then use an AP reset (real money item) to reset the extra Mana, and give yourself extra free points to put into strength, Luk, etc. People choose to put this into HP, and then that is HP washing. Basically, you're using real money to buy extra HP. Is there something like that in LaTale? Thanks for answering everything. I know this is an MS website, so most will say MS. I posted this on another unbiased forum, and I'm just looking for more opinions.

La Tale and Wonderking are the bootleg version of Maplestory.

I remember playing the LaTale beta, I think I remember getting to level 40 and was ranked top 10 in the time. Then it KINDA got boring, but that was only the beta. I had like the best equips and a beast name! ^_^ RIP Vengeance. :O OT: I say play LaTale.

http://wiki.gg (stupid filter, it's a site name...) blah blah blah ftw.com/latale/LaTale:Content "Any attempt to bypass this will result in a permanent ban on all accounts." Oh well. http://latale.wikiwiki.jp/ Two wikis, the 2nd one would require a translator unless you either know Japanese or like to randomly browse. You can find job skills and other related things here. [quote] Darkangel766 : at blacken souls you are completely wrwong low levels are BETTER at pvp then high level. Some people stop leveling at 20 just to make it pure pvp. [/quote] That's like saying an unripe apple is better than a ripe apple. You're basically repeating 2 skills and running away to avoid damage at that point. Not to mention only a few jobs at 20 are suitable for a little pvp now and then. Really doubt a 2x, let's say, fire mage, can take out a GS. While lower levels can manage to beat high levels...it depends on if the high level will run away like a pansy, etc, etc. I'm assuming this is a 1v1 situation, because in a free-for-all, you can pick off and steal kills and win. [quote] TooSxcee : La Tale and Wonderking are the bootleg version of Maplestory. [/quote] LT - the music is good/isn't as dated as 3/4th's of MS's music. It can be graphically eye pleasing, fighting stuff has more interaction compared to WK and MS, it's like a 'Tales of' game, you get a party with a max of 4, there are even some skills similar to Tales skills. Also foods, I guess Alchemy could be considered cooking. Maps aren't too big, and there aren't many, it's a fairly 'small' game. Where as WK has some voiced elements, some double jumps, etc. It's a lot like maple, but more 'modern'. The music on the other hand, it's not too bad. Quests, Maps, etc, a bit lacking and not too creative at some points, and I did see a Leaf Shield skill somewhere.....in the style of MM2's leaf shield..take that, Airman. Haven't tried PvP in WK, but I heard it's good/fun. Etc, etc, etc. In terms of creation, MS - 2003, LT - 2006, WK - 2006.
