Anybody knows how to install G-Engine for Gabriel Knight 3?
This is great info if they are learning to compile open source software, but if they just want to play the game, I'd recommend they download either the mac or windows pre-compiled releases from here: https://github.com/kromenak/gengine/releases/tag/v0.0.4

Has anyone been able to get Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred Blood of the Dammed functional on modern hardware?
I dont believe so. Last I heard there was a project to make a type of plugin/add on to support it (here: https://github.com/kromenak/gengine) - but I’m not sure how far it is along or if it’s even still being worked on.

Popularity of DOS/4GW made Win95 game compat easier, but with higher stakes
Absolutely check out PCem for a closer to hardware emulation than dosbox, https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/

Anyone get Sid Meier's SimGolf Working?
One option is to try PCEm https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/ which is a emulator for old computers that runs on Windows and Linux, I actually learned about it via this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9HP9W88Wew of a guy playing Sim Golf on his Windows PC using PCEm, this should be similar on Linux but I'm not sure if the SteamDeck will have enough power but maybe worth a try

Is there anyway to port old abandonware Windows 95/98 game to Apple Silicon?
For hardcore mode, compile PCEm - I think brew has most of the dependencies available ... https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/ - have fun!

Is VirtualBox still really bad with Windows 9x?
You use 86box or PCem which are not virtualizers but hardware emulators so you will need a really fast CPU (especially in single thread). The advantage is that Windows 98 will be running on period appropriate hardware, since all of it is being emulated real-time.

Intel Explores Transition to 64-Bit-Only X86S Architecture
QEMU [0] emulates many systems, including the 32-bit Intel architecture. For retro gaming specifically I can recommend PCem [1], which also emulates a wide range of sound and graphics cards, from IBM MDA to 3dfx Voodoo 2.
