Due to potential new direction of D, I’m looking for some escape route just in case. I’m primarily a gamedev, so no functional programming languages like Rust or Haskell. Also one of the features I dislike the most in C/C++ is the super slow and super obsolete precompiler with its header files, so no zig, I don’t want to open two files for editing the same class/struct. Memory safety is nice to have, but not a requirement, at worst case scenario I’ll just create struct SafeArray<Type>. Also I need optional OOP features instead of reinventing OOP with all kinds of hacks many do when I would need it.

Yes I know about OpenD, and could be a candidate for such things, just looking into alternatives.

    C# is only good as a scripting language in my usecase, and sometimes you want “hard-code” new features, not script them.

    My recent experience with C# suggests you might have a much better time with it, than you think.

    C#'s compile phases are nuanced and achieve surprisingly quick results, now.

    If it’s been awhile since you used C#, you could be happily surprised.
