Coming from statically typed languages and reading about duck typing... i.... i...... I LOVE IT!!!
I'm excited to learn GDScript, havn't learned a new (programming) language in a while.

@hollowspecter What statically typed language have you used before? On one end, C's types can be a pain, same for anything that requires type annotations, but something like Rust or Haskell is a very different experience.
@csepp I come from C++, C# and Java mostly :) I dabbled in some javascript here and some python there, but that's about it.
@hollowspecter Oh, yeah, that explains it, all those statically typed language are really verbose. 😆
@hollowspecter To clarify, I don't wanna imply that duck typing is bad compared to using Haskell. It's pretty nice for gamedev style scripting IMHO, but my experience with gamedev experimentation in Lua was that better types would have saved me from so many runtime errors.
