luxtorpeda VS devilutionX

There is also OpenGothic. Which can be used standalone or through Luxtorpeda.

Bit late but luxtorpeda has gzdoom as an option along with qzdl for launching with mods. You just gotta install protonup-qt from the discover store in desktop mode. A quick YouTube/Google search can show you how but that's the rough gist of it.

I use ProtonUp-Qt to get different Proton versions. You can find it there. You could also manually install Lux. Then just select it from the Compatibility tools.

try using Luxtorpeda to install ECWolf to play it instead

Released a new luxtorpeda-dev client (https://github.com/luxtorpeda-dev/luxtorpeda/releases/tag/v63)

There's a project called Luxtorpeda which acts as a compatibility layer in Steam but instead of running the game through Proton, it will download and run it with native engines and source ports. So if you enable it with classic Doom it will pop up with a dialog asking which port to play with (GZDoom, doomsday etc) and it will count towards your Steam play time, enable the Steam overlay etc. Keeps the engine up to date and works with lots of other games with open source ports too.

Diablo is the original "anti-souls" game.

The slot machine mechanics, the lacking of significant strategic elements and that sense of hollow progression have always been key factors for my dissatisfaction with it.

That said, the beautiful / dreadful / horror vibe and simplicity of the first game to this day regularly pulls me in – only to ultimately dissatisfy me greatly. Each time. There is "no there there".

So I agree on many fronts with this article.

Diablo could have been so much more but they turned it into a highly engineered form of drug that can potentially destroy you with little to nothing to gain for it (nicotine?).

So depending on the person and with the right .mpq file in hand this could either mean getting addicted to or maybe getting off "cigarettes" completely:

(Devilution/X is amazing and maybe more interesting than playing the game itself, complete clean-room reverse engineered version of Diablo).

Devilution X (Diablo)

Diablo 1 with https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX

DevilutionX is a relatively recent project which supports the original Xbox, amongst other platforms.

There basically is already with DevilutionX: https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX/releases

https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX works great on the deck

I would recommend to use DevilutionX, which is an Open Source Port to modern platforms. It has some quality of life adjustments if you like to use them and also has controller support. https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX

I am trying to install DevilutionX 1.4 (which seems to be the latest arm version?) on my Pi 4 running retropie. I followed the instructions in the Wiki .
