Hello all,

I am curious if there is a viable option to play Diablo 2 on Linux. I have a RetroPie setup for my kid and was wondering if I could show him diablo 2.

    I am asking because all problems I remember were resolution-fullscreen-related. Playing 800x600 in window was possible for some time… But it was some time since I checked the situation the last time. It might be better now.

      I just tried naively installing Diablo II from scratch inside Bottles and sadly I couldn’t get it to work at all this time, at least not without further tinkering but I couldn’t spare more time at this moment. I presume installing it like this and then adding it to Steam to use Proton could work. I know it worked for Warcraft III a few months ago. And then Proton usually handles fullscreen completely seamlessly.
