"What's stopping you from actually learning programming?"

maybe some of them could be true:
- laziness,
- the false dream of easy success in game development,
- low amount of time spent on this hobby,
- thought to be not needed, wrongly,
- low motivation for learning hard,
- no braveness to design a complex game requiring complex programming (start small, and remain small...),
- getting stuck at visual design,
- with 3dgs/lite-c it is very easy to create basic stuff that just works, resulting in instant happiness, but a bit hard to manage more complex systems, which is difficult as we can see the lack of advanced lite-c tutorials (but you can find pieces of gold by searching the forum),
- going crazy because what is true for C or C++ might not be similarly true for Lite-C, and sometimes no information why,
- the new visual programming system
