Is MS-DOS just used for output while someone is learning a programming language these days or does it have a real propose behind the scene? I wonder this because all any language does like C or C++ for example. Is just a bunch of stuff that works with the command prompt? I never see command prompts in video games, but are they behind the senses running the code or something. Even if someone learns C and C++ none of it is used in a video game because all of it is OpenGL that is just using a C++ compiler.

"MS-DOS" isn't used, but command line programs that do I/O on the standard input and standard output streams are frequently used. Not by end-users, but by developers, administrators, and other people. All the time. Every hour of every day. There are other kinds of command lines like Powershell, too.

Command line interfaces are like Tonka trucks. They allow beginners to learn while saying "Truckee, truckee, vroom, vroom!!!"
