      Damn, it’s been like 25 years since I touched either of those. Aside from OS development, do people really do that anymore?

        C++ is also the standard in game dev. You may see some C# here and there, but most engines, public available or otherwise, are built on C++.

        If it is a AAA game, I can assure you it is most likely made with C++.
