I've only ever programmed in ARM assembly (which also has an excellent reputation, but I myself can't compare), but I heard from a lot of older programmers that the 68K was magical compared to x86 traffic light controller based architecture.

Yeah I've done quite a bit of x86 in the 90s and a little bit of 68k, and x86 is very pedestrian in comparison. No wonder people wanted to use C and other high-level languages on the PC.
