But for those cases, what would move you to use D instead of an entirely memory-safe language like Python or Lua?
To justify using D for games, you'd need to find a use-case where speed (e.g. targeting 60fps) is high-priority enough to be writing a lot of low-level code; and yet, where "having a CG around" still won't cause problems. Can you think of one?
