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.

If you're running RetroPie on a Raspberry Pi, it won't work there. Running it on a regular x86_64 PC shouldn't be a problem. Just install it through Wine (I can recommend managing it with Bottles) and launch it through Wine or Proton.

You can run x86 and x64 games on the pi using this project.

Problem is the performance is awful - and RaspberryPi CPU isn't that fast in the first place

The reports suggest it's working fine. Some slow spots but overall not bad
