Hi, all.
Diablo 4 has been released recently. I am very interested to know if anyone has managed to play it on PC with Gentoo via Steam. Any details, like here, are welcome!

None of the Diablo series are available on Steam store, but it seems to run on SteamDeck, so I suppose it should run on Gentoo with wine-proton.
Lutris got an install script, as I get it, it requires to install Blizzard Battle.net. |

Aha...
I also found some more information here on Youtube.
EDIT
And also Workaround for Battle.net install hang in Lutris on Linux.

Well, I have installed Battle.net (via Lutris).
The workaround described in the second Youtube video wasn't necessary; the installation was stuck for several minutes two times (like on 88% and on 99%) but then went ahead.
But I had to use another workaround: this one. I did not meet the problem described on that page, but that "resolution" suited me too  What I am talking about: I had different issues during the first install, and suspected that something went totally wrong; I began to search, found that page and understood that the cause of my issues can be in the Lutris cache remained from my several-years-old Skyrim installation; I removed it, and then the second install went smoothly. I want to take note that I removed the files only from ~/.config/lutris and ~/.cache/lutris! Those in ~/.local/share/lutris are necessary for my precious Skyrim (I checked, it still works after Battle.net installation, nothing broke).
For today it's enough; Diablo 4 installation - next time

So far, Diablo refuses to launch. With default settings (wine_path: lutris/runners/wine/lutris-GE-Proton8-8-x86_64/bin/wine in blizzard-battlenet-standard-1686773236.yml), it complains:
| Quote: | | Failed to find vkd3d-proton d3d12core interfaces. Make sure d3d12core.dll is installed as well. |
I searched and found that it is sooner of all an issue of Proton version. The first Youtube video recommended to use GE-Proton7-53. But the german benchmarks from rfx used the same GE-Proton8-8.
When I was configuring Proton for Skyrim, I made it via Steam, and it was kinda easy - one selector in GUI. Here in Lutris there are multiple configuration tabs, multiple selectors, multiple configuration files... I tried to replace all GE-Proton8-8 to GE-Proton7-53 in blizzard-battlenet-standard-1686773236.yml, and after that Battle.net refused to launch.
So, the main question: how to change Proton version for Diablo in Lutris correctly?
One more question: there is no separate Diablo icon in Lutris; Skyrim and Battle.net only. Is it normal or no? More than 80 GB downloaded, and it wasn't worth an icon Does Lutris consider Diablo a part of Battle.net? Or didn't I finish Diablo installation via Lutris? (I installed Diablo from Battle.net and I launch it from there)
In short, I am not familiar in Lutris, and Battle.net... I will be happy for any help.
EDIT
And... WTF is 1686773236 in the configuration file name?
EDIT2
Using Proton in Lutris is always a gamble. Proton is intended to be started from Steam. It can work in Lutris, but you can also encounter very strange bugs.

Ouch!
It has been launched. It is giving a wine error, about an unspecified program fail, but then it is launching, full-screen, with sound, logging into server, and showing a brightness configuration dialogue.
What I did:
In Lutris ->
Right click on Battle.net, choose "Configure" ->
Go to the tab "Runner Options" ->
1) Enable "Advanced" at the top line
2) Click "Wine version" and choose Lutris-GE-Proton8-8-x86_64
3) Click "VKD3D Version" and downgrade it to v2.8
(Thanks to)
Close Lutris, re-open Lutris.
EDIT
I marked the topic as solved, but, if anybody has to add or ask anything, please feel free to post here.
EDIT2
...I wrote it all with Diablo still working; Alt+Tab seems to work pretty stable with it.
