I am happy to be honest that I have not spent much time of rust, other than browsing sample code and reading about user experience, the borrow checker, etc.

For me, I could not see myself using rust especially for game development. Some of the points raised are my concerns, especially wanting to chuck something together (to improve later) only to fight the compiler, etc.

I would be interested to know what language they choose moving forward. It seems the contenders are likely to be:-

C - because, you can,

C++ - ditto,

D - I think it is largely ignored, and there is the betterC flag

Zig - Seems interesting,

Odin - Also interesting

Anyway... going to enjoy reading the comments, now.
