If you would like to go down the Boot Camp route, take a look at our Maplestory Mesos instructions on the best way to conduct Windows 10 on Mac using Boot Camp. When it is installed, just install Steam and MapleStory and game on! As said above, functionality might be sub-optimal depending on the specification of your Mac, so you may need to tweak settings for a decent gameplay experience.
Anime seems to be all within my internet world right now. Perhaps I am just a huge weaboo, but with our latest policy of Closers, Soulworker, and Peria Chronicles in route, Japan seems to be creeping closer to home these days. Nexon, the team behind MapleStory have not been slow to jump on board as they unveil the MaplStory x Evangelion event.
Kicking off on February 28, the popular pixel artwork MMO is teaming up with the classic Japanese anime in a rather arbitrary, but trendy crossover event. This includes tons of Evangelion themed quests, rewards, and battles to keep gamers entertained. Anyone logging in for the first time, after Feb 28, if get a call from Dr. Kim to describe the particulars of this occasion. The Eva pilots and their titular mechanoids are sucked through an inter-dimensional rift and are now trapped at the MapleStory universe. There is no sign of Mari in her purple outfit or Kaworu Nagisa, as you find the adolescents tending to their Eva units in Dr. Kim's lab.
It's a plot line that easily matches any turn of the millennium anime, so it makes zero sense, but I'm a long-suffering Evangelion fan and that's par for the course. Rei, Shinji, and Asuka are very accurately translated in the MapleStory universe, with on a cheap Maple Story Mesos cute Chibi facade that is especially adorable when applied to their Eva units. Characterization is amazingly believable. Shinji is annoying, Asuka remains my personal pick of the three, and Rei is just as ambiguous and dropped as fans of the show might remember. It is a small bit of taste but giving these pixelated folks some believable dialogue is a particularly endearing touch for those of us waiting for the next effect.
