Is learning C# worth it?

I've been thinking about picking up making games in Unity again and I'm wondering if I should learn to use C# with it, this time around? I already know how to use Javascript/Unityscript, but I was considering if I would be better to start from scratch using C#. I'm pretty confident that I can pick it up fairly quick, but my main concerns are if I will be able to use it anywhere apart from Unity? Would it actually be worth it or should I just stick to Javascript/Unityscript?

Please, tell me what you think. Thanks!

 

That's kind of a personal decision. But yes. C# is a very modern language, it's not going away, it encourages you to understand how computer memory is managed and it's about as safe as you can get. However, I think if you're going to C# it's best to learn some C/C++ first. It could be a bigger investment in time than you're looking for.

But overall, learning is never a waste of time.

 

Yes, do it

Its not that different or difficult actually,

Plus, if you ever decide to get a job programming, not knowing C# might raise an eyebrow or two.
