Why do people try and complete games as quickly as possible?

Because they're retarded, and think being ahead of everyone else is more fun, when suddenly three weeks later they realised they have nothing to do...

I can't imagine people completing a game such as Diablo 3 to the fullest in under 24 hours...

And I mean, completely. 100%.

If it's true then, these people must have been playing it non stop no eat no sleep no drink. Waste of life and fun if you ask me.

No, it's for the challenge.

Different people enjoy games differently... and of course completing it quickly comes with bragging rights.

High hopes are high, you're lucky to get 10 hours out of most games these days.

So what's actually the point of the game? Just a story? Not like other mmorpgs?

Normal is the easiest of 4 difficulties, it's normal / nightmare / hell / inferno. When I see people complete inferno on hardcore i might be disheartened. But it was expected normal was going to be cleared really fast by those that are diablo diehard fans.

I guess, but it's an RPG lol, not an MMO or a game that you get progressively better and compete against others for "glory". It's just a race, and once that 1st spot is taken, anything other than that is pointless. Then it's simply a matter of completing and enjoying the story, on as many difficulties as you can handle.

I just don't see the point in trying to complete it as fast as possible. Surely extending the games life cycle gives your money's worth?

Opinions are like arseholes mate, everyone has one.

I'm with you, I like to play an RPG to its fullest and get immersed... others however may just want to beat another game. Doesn't make them stupid, especially in this case because many people have D3 because of the annual pass & may not have time to play D3 as much as others due to WoW commitments.

Completed Normal.. Only challenge in that was 'last boss' It had 3 stages of fights.. 1st bit if when his health reaches 1/2 Bar.. Then He teleports you to his land and got full health. You put that down to 0.1%.. Then you get teleported back to the main place and he has 1/2 bar still.. Then you finish him

Only trouble i had was soooo much lagg spikes.. Made me die a couple of times..

But i'm telling you HardCore seems hard :D

I completed normal but died a few times along the way.
I love the story and the cut scenes and the maps and the monsters and the spells. Damn.
Nightmare is fun, quite a step up from before.
