I use both D-Fend Reloaded and Dosbox to play my games. D-Fend Reloaded is definitely a good program for the following reasons.
1. If you have children (or in my case a younger brother) who like to play dos games, but can't use a command line.
2. D-Fend Reloaded creates a .conf file for each game you add to it, so you can play each game with different dosbox settings. This is useful for games that need different cpu settings or graphic settings to function correctly.
3. It's good for people who have no idea how to use a command line.
4. It helps organize all your games in a nice GUI.
So it does have its uses, but like you said, it is a hassle to set up sometimes. Also, certain games don't run in D-Fend Reloaded, yet those same games run in dosbox. I like using dosbox personally, but I do know that D-Fend Reloaded does have its uses.
