I just found out that sometime in the last month or so while doing regular updates Wine got bumped to 8.12… (likely from 8.0) and my games have gone haywire: Neverwinter Nights and Diablo2 would kind of start but then halt. Switching to desktop and back unblocks games for the next few seconds and then things repeat.
I’ve downgraded wine to 7.12 and things are working back.
Question: should I have done some migration step for 8.12 to work properly or is it even a known issue?
I am using PlayOnLinux for Diablo2 with System Wine and Vanilla System wine for NWN.

Yeah, I get it. You make a post asking about what is wrong / changed but get endless replies on your setup. To address this specifically, the best I can say is you’re asking too specific of a question in too generalized of a forum. If you want a more specific answer, it will require that you narrow the focus to a WINE forum of some kind which is why I mentioned the WINE app database.
However, as I mentioned, I am confident that if you download the latest GE-Proton for Lutris, you should be able to play D2R, as that is essentially what I am using.
