I've never regretted learning vim/emacs. That said, I tend to use a "traditional" IDE (VS, VS Code, XCode) when programming.
Your "VIM is Comparable to a Video Game" comment caught my eye. I've been trying to slog through my Steam backlog and started playing "Epistory: Typing Chronicles". It's unusual in that it's a typing game, but also that you use JIFE for movement (i.e. instead of WASD). Makes me wish there was something like that for VIM. Someone recently posted here about games that are like programming, maybe that's why "gamification" is on my mind.

Hola, meet Vim Adventures.
First level had me for a minute, then I remembered the game is just VIM. So, tip: top far right land square, down over the water squares. Enjoy.
I should have guessed such a thing exists....
Another gamified Vim learner is PacVim
