I know the usual thing in tech and hacker community is usually 'why not??' when people question why someone did a project, but this one has me scratching my head when Devilution-X exists. I'm really questioning why someone would go through the effort to finish this project.

I would think at least some of it was for historical preservation. The prerelease demo is neither the same as nor included in the released game. Voices are different, for example.
