I recently bought Diablo 1 via GoG and wanted to install it on my Dell Latitude for couch sessions. I installed it via Heroic and everything seemed fine, but after the Blizzard splash, the game stays black. Sometimes, when I tab out, some menu texts appear in the tab switcher thumbnail, but thats about it. I fumbled around with the graphics settings in the pre-game settings window (which is really tiny) and tries window mode, different resolutions etc. but nothing changed.
It feels a bit like a “not good enough graphics card” but… well, its Diablo 1…
Is there something I can do, or try, to make D1 playable?
edit: DevilutionX did it amd it was a breeze. Ty all.
I’m glad i suppose but yeah its recommended for people to use because it works so well. Heroic doesn’t help you when it doesn’t work or you don’t know what to do next. I’ve tried it. And this post shows exactly why I stopped using it. Ease of use doesn’t matter if it just strait up doesn’t work on stuff
Edit: And what in the comment/upvote farm bullshit is your account anyway? Go fuck yourselves lol sudden interest in niche Linux software after 300+ upvotes on every post all year. Suddenly posted nonesense here with no upvotes about actual answer bellow when its the only comment and complimented with a generic ass take? That’s sus. So either your pride just suddenly shriveled up and died or there’s something going on here. Taken over by comment LLM? Unlikely considering the post history? Gov bullshit? Probably that. But hell who knows right guy? (actual answer bellow) 🖕💀🖕
What the hell just happened there? That was some weird breakdown.
I mean, I guess you didn’t catch the post of the person explaining why Diablo doesn’t work properly (Fedi threading issues, presumably?) but maaaaaan, that’s some off the rails unprompted weirdness.
Hey I knew I left this up for a good reason! I happened to be the thing your terrified to the core of being. Wrong.
Strait up, multiple factors that made that appear to be accurate and it wasnt. I was WRONG. But I left it up because I needed i a reminder of how WRONG I was
Something you might be able to learn from if you apply yourself you take it personally and stalk the shit out of them for hurting you wittle FEELINGs motherfucker. I’d put you down like an animal if you did that to me in RL just remember that.
Weird is something you can’t stand. But look at you. Look at why you posted this. You are a fucking weirdo of the ages. But perhaps teachable. Because your so invested I have quite some power over you now and I can utilize that (just a reminder I didn’t do that deliberately, you did it on your terms)
It was a super cool rant, I knew people were going to love it because it IS cool. Wrong as hell but its so cool you looked into it personally. You spent your own time doing what I KNEW would happen as a result of posting that and leaving it up to see clowns like you go through my comment history. Now keep dancing for my amusement you internet monkey.
Parallels to politics can be drawn here if you want to use your brain for more then just a soggy waffle
Good luck out tho there, its tough as shit out in reality.
Get fucked.
Get better.
But mostly, get learned bitch.
Oh and also get less weird 💀
Riiiiiiiight.
Man, social media is a trip.
Who? What? I don’t see anyone with any 300+ upvote posts, let alone a consistent stream of them. If you’re taking about the account you just responded to, they commented 6 hours ago. There’s 9 other comments that are older than that.
