    I used it to make a dialog system in a video game. It made it, but it was needlessly complex and ten times as long as the code needed to be. No thanks, i don’t need a buggy mess that’s unmaintainable.

      Note: I didn’t say - use it to code.

      But real question for you. Is the alternative you wouldn’t have done that at all?

        Yes, I’ve made a dialog system before. The context I found myself in was a game jam with a short amount of time using an engine I hadn’t used in years.

        Thought it would help instead of following a tutorial. But honestly, by the end of the jam, I really didn’t feel like rewriting the dialog system bcz it was so messy.
