This isn't a pointless question involving current-day wads on ancient hardware, it's something a sizeable amount of users would face since discrete video cards are usually reserved for high-end systems. I don't mean specifically for boa but in general. It's common knowledge that intel graphics aren't up to scratch for contemporary games, but playing through a couple of wads won't give much clarity on whether this is the case for gzdoom, add in the fact that both amd and intel cards have been optimized greatly about... 6 months ago?
It's still the same pattern over and over and over with you, again and again and again:
You're asking a question about a specific piece of hardware that's best answered empirically. You're wrong - playing a couple wads WILL give you some clarity.
This isn't a one-off thing with you. Literally every day that you spend on this forum, even if it's not every post, you ask questions like this. It's annoying, it's grating, and believe it or not we DO get a lot of complaints about it.
If you asked how it could run faster - maybe that would be slightly better. But in this case, a simple forum search would answer that question several times over and then some. Like, turning off SSAO and multisampling, and using half screen scaling. So even that would be annoying, at this point.
What it really comes down to is - the only reason you're still here is you haven't annoyed us enough for us to actually do something about it. But that can change very quickly...
