After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory’s first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream

Some 20,000 viewers piled into the chat of Twitch streamer and famous MMO grinder niru yesterday, April 25, to witness a historic moment: the first level 300 character in the 19-year history of MapleStory. Instead, they saw a very different yet still historic moment as the fatigued player slammed the brakes at level 299, exactly 99.993% toward level 300, to rip into the game’s economy for an hour straight, all on a stream previously promoted by developer Nexon itself. 

About 16 hours and 42 minutes into yet another lengthy grinding stream, niru kicked off an hour-long rant primarily about how different MapleStory worlds operate and how the game’s economy functions. As Twitter user sub noted, this was merely the latest in countless regular streams, some reaching 48 hours, adding up to over 10,000 hours of pure level grinding by conservative estimates. Niru’s stream FAQ simply says he’s been grinding for “too long” at a rate of about 0.13% every two hours, though earlier levels would’ve been a bit faster.
