Could you build this?
No Porting a closed-source 1999 2D/pseudo-3D game (Diablo II) to virtual reality requires reverse engineering game binaries, disassembling DirectX/DirectDraw rendering, and writing custom stereo rendering / 6DOF injection hooks.
What it would actually take: Requires deep C++ systems programming, game reverse engineering (using IDA Pro/Ghidra), memory hooking (Detours/MinHook), and OpenXR runtime integration. The team must reconstruct 3D scene data or depth buffers from legacy 2.5D sprite engines, remap controls to 6DOF VR controllers, and prevent desyncs in legacy game loops.
