Do you really want your designers to have to learn python though? If they're learning python, they may as well learn c# or c++ and go all the way into programming. Unless it's a visual novel I guess, where renpy is popular

- crustaceansoup 3y agoWhy does it have to be used by designers? Programmers can get benefit from the faster iteration time and level of abstraction from the engine code. It's also really nice for onboarding juniors. My first game dev job was as a junior gameplay programmer at EA working mostly in Lua on top of a C++ engine.
- raytopia 3y agoA lot of people who are designers and artists already know Python because of its heavy use in 3D pipelines. Honestly I'd argue it makes more sense to also let them do scripting in something they already know.
