Canadian gamers Kripp and Krippi beat Diablo 3 in Hardcore Difficulty

Remember our post here about the Korean and Chinese gamers who beat Diablo 3 in 7 hours? That was in Normal Difficulty. And many wondered how long will it take to beat the game in the highest difficulty setting, Hardcore? Why don’t we ask Kripp, coz he is the first to beat Diablo 3 in Hardcore! If you don’t believe him, then watch the video below:

There were two interesting things with this achievement by Kripp. One, Kripp was aware of the Diablo 3 1.0.3 patch by Blizzard that would update the game and make Hardcore difficulty a bit not so hardcore. Apparently, the patch makes the game a bit easier and improves item drops. So Kripp and his buddy Krippi decided to race against the clock and beat Diablo 3 in Hardcore before the patch made the feat much easier. How’s that for hardcore!

Another thing. While they indeed were able to beat Diablo 3 in Hardcore, the character they used died at the end of the game. That means everything that character acquired to beat the ultimate Diablo is also gone. Great spoiler huh!

Congratulations Kripp and Krippi for that gaming achievement!
