Sounds exciting. I was thinking of sorting my M&Ms into alphabetical order. That should chew up some time.

I completed all my outstanding client work earlier in the day.

I really need to get around to starting on some proactive marketing work though.

And I'm looking at Kelly art.

DSO Gaming is reporting that Korean players have already smashed through the single player mode


Apparently there is single player...

The DSO source article made a mistake, though.

Here's a screenshot of the final kill: http://i.imgur.com/OS90W.jpg

Clearly shows a group. Three players each with a follower.

That would have also increased the speed, since a group has more killing power.

Well it's obviously a spoiler. :P I just put in there to point out DSO's shoddy headline writing.

really wonder though what to do with the game once u pretty much clock the main story and reach lvl 30...

i mean play it with higher difficulty is the natural option, but... i mean, what do you do after that?

Increase character power.

Play hardcore.

Start a new class.

This isn't an MMO with a clear content mentality.

Yeah, you just keep going to make your character stronger. The 'content' is the new and more powerful item drops.

It's very different to an MMO, and in my opinion, more fun.

Though the levels are randomly generated.

If you've not played Diablo before I'd really recommend giving it a go first. It sounds clunky, but the concept is very entertaining in practice.
