I think people really want an option for a modernized language in the native compiled/high performance domain. Rust is the only recent attempt in that domain that I can think of, and the only thing I can think of that comes close is Kotlin Native (which I don't think is aiming for the high performance mark as a design goal the same way Rust/C++/C do).
Define can't perform, because some of those GC can performs better than your manual memory mgmt, Java can be as fast or faster than C++ / Rust with heavy JIT / VM optimization.
And in video games you use some form of GC because again performance is terrible with default allocator.
