Just when I thought we were completely toast, suddenly the book of code emerges from the tomb!

Now that's exciting news, and hopefully it means a big D3 revival among the Descent community will be imminent!  ;D

Long time no post, I wound up here by a chance encounter with Kaiaatzal on a totally unrelated guitar-gear YouTube comment. It's a small world  ;D

This is awesome news! Would love to see widescreen support and controller support come out of this, particularly.

Actually booted up D3 the other day just to see if it would even start on Windows 11, and I was surprised to find that it not only worked but seemed rock solid for the hour or so that I played. But 1024x768 is a little long in the tooth, especially those of us with ultrawides  :P
I, for one, hope this is much, much more than a reconnaissance mission.
