@harry asked:

would you be willing to speak a little about your issues with godot and (nodes in particular)?
im just now picking up game dev in earnest and am starting with godot. nodes seem pretty intuitive but havent really dived all that deep yet

im curious to hear your thoughts on the concept

i'm gonna be real, i haven't dug enough into godot to have an informative opinion. i don't like nodes because they don't make sense to me and appear to incentivize god objects, but i've never done a full project in godot so any criticism i make would be misinformative at best

fwiw unity nodes and godot nodes have fairly different vibes; in particular godot nodes don't have components, they just have child nodes. and there's no multiple inheritance. so in my limited experience code tends to get compartmentalized a bit more. or if you are a newbie gamedev then you might just do a ghastly amount of copy/pasting because the idea of putting functionality in child nodes and calling those would not yet occur to you
