There is nothing legacy about Visual Studio. There is simply no equivalent of its debugging and profiling capabilities in C++ and C# especially in graphics / game development. No such equivalent exist in Unix world including macOS. They set the bar.

Agreed, but all those features don't help at all if you are doing software for platforms that aren't Windows or apparently the major game consoles.
Have you tried Vtune? I don’t do much profiling, so I’m not sure what exactly good is, but when I’ve played around with it, it seemed neat.
I've never tried it but does anyone know how C/C++ development is in Xcode?
