    You don’t “need” it defaults to the shareware version if you don’t provide the MPQ. I will say though that the original Diablo discs are archived on archive.org

      but talking to Farnham is not available in the shareware version.
      What if I want to talk to Farnham? Maybe I had a rough week and just need someone to talk to. Farnham seems pretty chill.

        Download the archive… open the ISO… bam?

        (Note: Don’t torrent the archive… Apparently someone is dmca trolling that torrent. The fuck rights to a 30 year old game do they think they can enforce when you can’t even fucking buy it.)
