I found myself on the cusp of a 100% completion run of  DeathSpank, and spent two-and-a-half hours last night scrambling to complete every last sidequest before I went off to challenge Lord von Prong. At least one hour of that was naught but solid level grinding, darting back and forth from high-level enemy area to high-level enemy area. Once you hit level 19, that experience level curve might as well have been a cliff. It was all worth it in the end, though, to get every last trophy, finish every last sidequest, and listen to every last silly line of dialogue. Now, I need to hack/slash/shoot my way through the sequel, DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue, to see how it ends.
