Could you build this?

No Porting Diablo II to run in a browser requires deep systems reverse engineering of legacy x86 closed-source binaries and complex WebAssembly compilation.

What it would actually take: Requires reverse-engineering Diablo II DLLs (or porting C++ reverse-engineered engines like OpenDiablo2) to WebAssembly via Emscripten, mapping DirectDraw/Glide to WebGL, and writing custom virtual file systems to unpack MPQ archives in the browser. The hardest part is low-level binary decompilation, ABI emulation, and real-time audio/graphics synchronization in a browser sandbox.
