Hi Ryan,
Let's not turn this into an argument as that was not my intent. What I was intending to say is that there are other options besides BGT, and I feel that people should not automatically suggest BGT without at least giving some other options a mention as well.
Have I recommended BGT in the past? Yes, I have. Its a great tool for beginners and for people only interested in Windows game development. Those recommendations were based on what I understood the person's intentions to be, and based on things they said in their message.
As for Python, yes, I have changed my mind. My prior comments were based on my limited experience with the language. Plus there were certainly personal biases involved. However, I will be the first to say I was wrong about Python being only useful for text games and script kiddies. Now, that I have began using it on a regular basis, see what it can do, I'm willing to be more open minded about the language and developing software with it. My personal favorite is still C++, but now that I have more experience with Python I'm willing to revise my opinion.
