Holy stuff, This Is In DOS

[Aide33]

Dos means disk operating system
It's a command line interface OS I think

Grainy filter is lovey.

It's DOSBox, a DOS emulator. So it's really DOS. However it's being ran on better hardware than what was available during the time DOS was mainstream.

I don't think it's a filter, I think it's dithering so it works with the limited color pallet.

Set your color to 256 colors

Grain!

This is in no way impressive.

[Talent74]

I think it's pretty cool.

I thought DOSBox emulated a Pentium 2 class
impressive through the software but on a 286 processor, performance would be horrible. this is why doom and wolfenstien had the graphics they had; they were meant to run on 286 processors

[Pentium]

Calling it made in DOS is kinda false considering there's this thing called a graphics card

No, it isn't. DOS is just the operating system: you could easily make an OpenGL-accelerated DOS game. This, on the other hand, strictly uses software rendering. It really looks amazing considering the very limited resources.
EDIT:

Not quite; the speed depends solely on how fast your host CPU is, or how many CPU cycles you've assigned. DOSBox also does not support anything newer than the Pentium's instruction set.

Lolno. DOOM requires a 386 CPU to be playable, and you really want a 486DX2-66 to play it completely smoothly. I don't even think it would start on a 286.

Hence the "class" and not stated clocks.

I get things confused a lot and the general gist of #86 was really annoying to me.
