Question for pros: I'm a Python dev who recently started diving into C++, hoping to build plugins for DCCs. However, every time I read these threads, I feel as if I'm on the completely wrong path. Positive views like the OP's are rare.
While I understand that not everyone gets to work on a John Carmack level codebase, is working on a C++ project really as challenging and unrewarding as it seems? Is the productivity that low, and do every step feel so difficult that they eventually drive developers away?
