Anyone who stops at the end of Act 4 normal is a fool. That is not the end of the game.

Especially not the end of the Gear Tiers XD

Yea ... the monsters get harder and harder, lmao. I'm level 52 Barbarian in Hell Act I. Where you all at?

You know, farming may be part of the game, but if you can beat the story this fast ...
Seriously, a lot of people say they had wasted more time on D2 ten fold.
Farm all you want, gear up and all, but that's just it, farming.
Not the first time Blizzard promised something cool and left everyone with a metallic taste on the tongue, from the big fat lies.

For the record, I couldn't care less about Diablo.

The game really isnt that long. They even made achivements for finishing acts in less than an hour. Also people have beat the game on inferno already so all Blizzards bs about inferno never being beaten during internal test was a bunch of bull.

None of the Diablo games have been particularly long, especially when players set out to specifically beat it as fast as possible. There are speedruns of the first game in under 5 minutes. It only had sixteen different levels even when actually doing all the content instead of just rushing down stairs.
And the first youtube link that pops up under "Diablo 2 speedrun" is under an hour for the base game. The next few links have a segmented full run (all three difficulties, every quest) that takes a combined playtime of four hours and twenty two minutes.
Diablo 3 is definitely not a very long game, but it's not particularly unusual for the genre or compared to its predecessors.

You know, I was thinking today, and I think what Arenanet is doing with the Guild Wars 2 release is actually brilliant.
Since Diablo 3 released for ALL of North America at one time, it was basically unplayable for 1.5 days due to massive server overload.
Guild Wars 2 on the other hand is giving a 3 day headstart to people who prepurchase, a 1 day headstart on people who preorder, and then everyone else joins in on release day.
In other words, I bet the Guild Wars 2 release will be much smoother than Diablo 3. Makes me wonder why Blizzard didn't partition when people join better (perhaps by timezone or something).
