After spending what seemed like an eternity of foraging, pillaging, and slaying, Jordan was nearing an end. An end of which only came to him in dreams, an end that depicted himself as a mighty ruler, an end where he had acquired all that there was to acquire. He had spent every waking hour for the past 15 years collecting treasures, armors, and anything of considered value. It was all means to his end of being the most respected hero in all the lands, both Heaven and Hell.
As the sun pried his eyes open one wintry day he realized he was there. He had achieved it all, the treasures, the gold, and the admiration he so greatly desired. He stirred in confusion, however, as a deep sense of hollowness bore inside his stomach. Had he not achieved everything he had wanted? Was this not the ultimate feat of man? He searched across the room, thinking that if he could just tell someone of his tales and loots he would feel at ease. He found Deckard Cain, a revered man of the town, and explained his story. Cain, impressed, clapped his hands and went back to tending his writings. Jordan became frustrated. He began to travel, killing demons effortlessly and anyone else who might look at him the wrong way. But, nothing seemed to appease his sense of loneliness. What was he missing?
Alas, upon finding a hefty treasure beneath a craggy tombstone, he saw a plain frog. The frog starred aimlessly into his eyes. In a daze, he took off his equipment and sat down next to the frog. It was so simple, he chuckled to himself. “Binkles,” the frog croaked. And with that Jordan wandered back into town—his gear remaining behind.

Well I'm thankful for at least this. Reminds me of the way they approached WoW. You could kinda power level someone but there were exp caps and it still took awhile.
