I know the usual thing in tech and hacker community is usually ‘why not??’ when people ask ehy someone did a project, but this one has me scratching my head when Devilution-X exists. I’m really questioning why someone would go through the effort to finish this project.

But you can’t but an early build of Diablo that was basically a “snapshot of the entire game 4 months prior to release”.

I would think at least some of it was for historical preservation. The prerelease demo is neither the same as or included in the released game. Voices are different, for example.
