Are those emulation sites where you can play retro games online any good?

I've started games on them but the web pages are annoying to navigate, the games hijack inputs awkwardly and there's very often a delay in their response. The binds are often poorly chosen too.

JavaScript + HTML5 is very resource heavy, so no

if you just want to jump into a game quickly, why the fuck wouldn't it be? I played Leisure Suit Larry in a browser and I'm glad I did.

Not since the dropped Java support. Those sites were pure soul.

If you like constant alerts that your antivirus is blocking trojans and shit.

they were nice years ago when stuck at in a computer lab at school, but otherwise, I'd rather do without. Browsers are already bloated as it is, and you're loading a whole app on top of it, it controls awkwardly, you have little control on the setting, the lag and input lag (might be better now)
Unless you're in a similar HS school situation, or unless you're playing a slow game or something more made for PC like DOS, they're better avoided
