| What essential features are missing for you? |

| ▲ | mariusor 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | For game development? I imagine having to use only structs but not classes would be something that forces a "non idiomatic D" experience. Dynamic arrays sound like something that's very useful for a game. I don't know, there are plenty of features that are incompatible with better C that makes D, D. Generally speaking, garbage collection would be the biggest in my opinion. | | |
| ▲ | monkeyelite an hour ago | parent [-] | | Yeah this person is asking how to make the smallest executable. They don’t want garbage collection. | | |
| ▲ | mariusor an hour ago | parent [-] | | Garbage collection was about what I would be missing. I mentioned before what could be missing from OP's point of view. |

| It's like saying "C is no longer C if you don't link with libc", it just is not true at all, and honestly, a pretty stupid thing to say |
| |
| ▲ | mariusor 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | Instead of being an ass, maybe you can take the time to educate me why you think I'm wrong? I think that at least the garbage collection not being available qualifies my statement as somewhat being true. For game development, as it's closer to what grand-parent asked, classes not being usable would also be an issue... |
