Tbf these games were made with crtvs in mind and crtvs blurred the edges making things look smoother. They only look so blocky nowadays because newer tvs have better resolution so you can clearly see all the blocky edges.
He always called them crtvs because he thought the “tube” part of cathode ray tube was unnecessary when using the acronym. You know it’s a tube because what else would a cathode ray be in?

I like it. Gonna use the one other time this possibly comes up in my lifetime.
I liked it better when I thought it meant Cathode Ray TubaVision
I think it depends… Definitely with 2d games, but for instance, the heads and fists in Goldeneye (N64) always looked blocky
Emulators have filters for that, though.
Btw, is there something similiar for wine? Not vkbasalt, because dxvk can create issues with too big address space in older games.
