Diablo 3 diary: The 'unlucky 13 hours in' edition
At level 19, my monk Darkartiste has been punishing evil in Diablo III for 13 hours now. It's at that unlucky hour mark that all his training flies out the window during Act II.
Getting familiar with the Auction House

I liked the fact that there was a visible strategy to that boss. I'm still recalling the old days where you basically just stood in front of it and gobbled health potions while whacking away at it. Notable cues for certain attacks and stuff and using mobility and well-timed stuns was a great change from the Diablo bosses of old.

"Yes, people have completed the game in 8-10 hours already, but those are the ones robbing themselves of the experience that really is Diablo III" - I'm so glad somebody wrote this, I was starting to feel like I was doing something wrong by exploring. Everyone else I know has finished the game once already, I have a job dammit, I can't keep up!!

I'm anal. I try to collect everything that drops, portal back when my packs are full and sell it. I overturn every corpse, explore every inch of map and try to kill ALL the mobs before going to another level. The ones rushing (I'm assuming) are the ones that want to get to the Inferno level as quickly as possible.

this is my wizard after finishing act 2 last night. I don't get how anyone is finishing it anywhere near that fast if they are honestly uncovering and exploring everything.

after act 3 : http://chattypics.com/files/CapturePNG_p2115jma9y.png
21 hours.
I have no idea how people are beating it as fast as they are. I guess I suck.

That was my time as well. I specifically quit playing as soon as I hit act 2 so that I could look at that profile page where it shows your time played.
I explored everything (if it turns out I found the correct way first, I always double back and clear the rest of the map even if it means 5 minutes running to a 10 meter long dead end corridor), I killed everything, sold everything, did the conversations etc.
I did not die and I did not rerun any areas. When I quit I quit at a point that won't make me redo stuff. So that helps, but still I gotta say 12 hours for act 1 is extremely long. -

I think rare just means that it has lots of properties, not that it has no level associated with it. So yeah, you'll probably end up getting better magic items at higher levels, and at the same level there will sometimes be magic items where those 2-3 properties will be better than the 4-5 properties on the rare just out of sheer randomness.

And this is why Diablo 3 is the best game ever.
