||Absolutely worth it. Mainly for just being able to easily manage the spaghetti that game code is, but also for performance. It is both the past and the future.

||I started gamedev with bevy which is ecs and I have no idea how you would go without out. I've tried unity but it also seems all components.

Components in ECS is nothing like that.
