Topic	C++ is really upsetting me
scar the 1 06/04/18 5:44:44 AM #24:	HashtagTartarus posted... I want to learn C++ because of how mainstream it is. I'm willing to suffer through some bulls* to understand what game devs in the late 90s/early 00s had to put up with. The worst bullshit they had to put up with (IMO) was interfacing with the GPU.
