Probably wouldn't help much unless your machine had the necessary hardware. Modern machines simply don't have the right hardware for these old games and software, which is why DOSBox is necessary as it emulates old graphics cards, sound cards and CPU types. Indeed... I think the last processor that ran DOS natively was made back in 2001. As an experiment I installed MS-DOS 7.22 on my old 32bit AMD Sempron XP machine from 2004. It actually ran fine and I could play some games on it. Though I think attempting the same thing with my new 64bit machine would be stupid.

Personally I don't take Call of Duty that seriously. It's a game to me so I don't read that deeply into it. Hasn't inspired me to become a soldier or anything so I dunno how much of a propaganda effect it has had on me... I just play the games because they are fun and solid and see them as playable action movies.

Yep, DOSBox is mostly used as a compatability layer these days for old games. It's more accurate to say it's a PC emulator rather than a DOS emulator since it not only emulates DOS but also hardware components such as various CPU types, SoundBlaster and AdLib sound cards as well as old graphics modes such as CGA, EGA and Tandy. In fact you can emulate an old Tandy machine using DOSBox so it's much much more than just a DOS emulator. It's a bit hard to get working since it pretty much works as a virtual machine and you have to set up a virtual C: drive on it. I suggest doing some googling on DOSBox before you dive into it.

Not just you lol

Not sure if this classifies as obscure cause it was everywhere for a while when it was new. Even my school computer had Neverhood.
