Diablo 3 game director, Josh Mosqueira, is and whether or not he’s still with the company.

A Diablo 3 player has taken power leveling to new heights of speed by taking his character from level 1 to level 70 in 33 seconds. Of course, there was a certain level of preparation and the need for a full party of three other players, but hey — 33 seconds is 33 seconds after all is said and done. The proof, they say, is in a picture so check out the video below.
