I think there is an argument for visual scripting, especially for the sake of creating hardware setups, Labview made this so trivial for labs that they made a paired down version that became the lego mindstorm stuff. Using it in professional applications, I swear by it if you need to write custom drivers for ancient college equipment or do literally anything with signal processing/radio.With video games specifically, shaders(basically applied signal processing), materials, animation trees, and blender geometry nodes all fucking nail it. They make very complicated programs so much simpler it's insane. State machines have been less successful, but there's so many times this pattern has worked that I fear it's inevitable.
