The YouTube class I’m following prioritizes safe memory management. I’m a mega beginner so I don’t know much about anything really. What language do you recommend for games?

Honestly C++ is still industry standard and probably the one to learn. I learned Java first, but didn’t really understand memory until doing C/C++. However, memory unsafe languages like C++ leave you open to the type of vulnerabilities and reputation damage that just happened with the COD WWII RCE exploit
