Visual studio has been a great IDE from the early 90s when I used it. (Also game/graphics dev)

I’ve never had anything but a terrible experience with it when doing C++

Either the whole thing freezes and becomes unresponsive, or intellisense stops working, or (often) both.

Sublime Text + GDB + RR is my no-bullshit setup right now and I love it. A mouse interface to GDB would be nice, but I can live without it.
