It's no secret I love retro PC games, particularly for MS-DOS and early Windows... but if there's one thing I really don't like about games from this era, it's the fact that running them on modern displays does one of two things:
1. The image is rendered low-res and pixellated (to an unpleasant degree) and stretched to fit modern resolutions.
or
2. Running in modern resolutions makes the menus, text, or FOV look really tiny.
