Go is not "on metal" (garbage collector). Rust and D are. D has that nice introspection, it still can be better C++ than C++. The critical point is to make that as easy as possible for the existing code bases.

D is the only language I know which at least tries to provide C++ interop (without going through the C ABI). Being syntactically and semantically closer to C++ is an advantage here. This is probably the biggest promise D has for game developers. However, it is not production ready yet.
