Diablo III is awesome. Waste of time? Not really. You just have to manage your time well and not fall too deep into it. I stopped after reaching level 60 because I have more important stuff to do with life. That doesn't mean I won't pick it up again later on.

News like this one are so common in the world nowadays. 'Man found dead in internet cafe', 'Boy died from playing too much games' etc .

What these people need the most is SELF CONTROL. It's ONLY a game and it won't run away. =__=

I love playing games and can sit playing for 16 hours on 1 game (I have a lot of patience). But for someone to play so much that you die?

Well spending your time on computer more than 5 hours will cause a risk of death.

if you play more than 20+ hours, there is a chance for you to die, please don`t spend playing too much video games.

That's just dumb to play a game until you die, And not even a good game at that. Diablo 3 was nothing but an epic fail, I quit and went back to diablo 2

This story looks familiar.
Wasn't there another guy that died in his chair from playing some MMO too much?

from the sound of it, he might have died from a blood clot from sitting so long, then standing up.

I been spending 8 hours a day at work in front of a computer since 1999. I am still alive. :P

That being said, when I retire, I want to be a farmer. Computers suck.

Why do people keep doing this?

AT least dance about for a bit between plays and have a snack or something.

How could anyone sit there for 40 straight hours? That's crazy... Nothing is that addictive!

Probably died from a blood clot.

Oh well he can always respawn...

^This. In all honesty, I don't understand how he managed to play D3 for more than 6 hours.

Although it is sad that a life has been lost.

Again? Fucking scum of the earth that deserve to die. They have the option to eat and drink, but choose not to because they're so ungodly lazy. Blood clots can also easily form in your legs under such a prolonged amount of time sitting, but dude, you know your legs hurt, get the fuck up.

I uninstalled D3 after a month- I beat it like 15 times and got bored with the repetition -It was not a very good game... but I'm not one to say that D1 and D2 were much better...I actually feel they were all pretty boring. I'll never buy D4, that's for sure.

The longest I've ever played a game straight was maybe 10-12 hours but not without moving or getting up... I stopped many times within those hours to eat, drink, poop, walk around, stretch, lie down, nap, sex, etc.

You just need to realize that gold farming isn't important at all- get a job in real life and farm money instead.
