    Yes it's worth it, read all the past patch notes to find out what's new. Just keep in mind the games fun just poorly managed though.

    Try it out yourself for a week or two and see if it's for you or not.

    I've been in your situation. a lot has changed in maple. The only real downfall is is the extended patches and such and the lag. the lag can be bad sometimes. But the game is just as fun as ever. Beast Tamer is available right now for a limited time if you get in now and with the 5th job coming out, theres gonna be new content for all classes. I hear the skill system is gonna be pretty fun for 5th job though i do not understand it yet.

    Reboot is the most populated server, next is Scania and Windia.
    If you want no p2w and have patience to raise your character go to Reboot.
    If you want p2w, get dmg fast, go to Scania or Windia.

    Don't play this game if you have no patience to deal with crash up to 3-4x while logging in, crash during bosses (or even talking to npc), amazing lag during 2x which makes the game literally unplayable in that time frame and be sure that you don't mind feeding a company that doesn't give a crap about the player base.

    Don't. Come. Back. Nexon does even weirder stuff than before, the game is more frustrating than enjoyable these days. Don't. Do. It. You'll get hooked onto the gambling train and become addicted like all of us on this stupid game ^^ But you best bet is playing REBOOT if you really care.
