You're not using Godot to its potential
In this video, I talk about making componentlike structures in Godot, which I feel is often overlooked.
Yes, GDScript is object oriented, but we have such a powerful tool (nodes) at our hands, we might as well use it to its fullest!
Using nodes as components is so much more flexible than rigid OOP inheritance trees.
Of course, if you overdo it, you'll just be shooting yourself in the foot; ideally you'd want a healthy mixture of both. That's why Godot is so great!

Btw, the plugin you see me use is a fork of GodotVim. Still a work in progress tho.
