GameZone Interview: Nexon Europe director chats about bringing MapleStory to the overseas market

GameZone writes: "Oftentimes in the United States, when a massively multiplayer online game releases, we see what is only in front of us and fail to see the global nature of the game. MMOs attract players from throughout the world, but sometimes the experience has to be tailored to suit the regional marketplace. What works in one area of the world, given cultural differences, might not fly in another.

MapleStory is a two-dimensional, side-scrolling MMO that has been in release in the U.S. for four years. But how is the game being received on a global scale, particularly in Europe?

Naturally curious about the progression of MapleStory in the European market, Nexon was able to hook GameZone up with Mr. Sung Jin Kim, the director of Nexon Europe, to chat about the game."
