Of course, the biggest benefit of using a statically typed language is performance, so using C++ is recommended only if an important bottleneck is found that can't be overcomed with scripting or engine tools. This is, however, rare as most tasks in a game (game logic, user interfaces, AI, etc) are not performance intensive and the engine takes care of the heavy workloads via it's tools and components.
However, if you have never used a scripting language (many users are wary about GDScript because they didn't), with more reason give it a chance. The simplicity and ease of use of scripting languages are such a huge advantage that it far outweighs the fears of potential performance issues. It's simply much more efficient to write the whole game using scripting, and only add a C++ component when a performance issue can't be solved (which, again, is rare).
