I remember running wolf3d.exe on my 386SX/16MHz in the mid-1990s, and it wouldn't run worth a damn unless the game display size was reduced to the lowest possible setting, about the size of a business card on the ol' VGA CRT. I spent many hours squinting at pixel-Nazis.
Now, some 25 years later, I have been playing through Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and I had nostalgic good fun playing several levels of the original Wolfenstein via an in-game arcade machine.
I like stories.

- gattr 7y agoInteresting point. I can add that it ran smoothly with full-size view on an IBM PS/2 70/80 laptop with a 386SX 20 MHz.
