I'm asking myself many times: Why is everything longer in Unity? ^^
Lite-c is an amazing language. It's so easy to do stuff. I am also learning Unity, and I am starting to understand it, but it's much more confusing to work with.
You're so right!
But on the other hand, all other things like the editor or editing particle systems, is much easier and comfortable in Unity! Another plus: You can export to all systems not only Windows!
So learning Unity is a good choice. After now two years working with it I don't want to switch back to A8. But sometimes I miss lite_C cause of the things mentioned above.
