From Full Stack to Game Dev in UE5 (Learning C++ or use Blueprints?)

Question

Hey Guys,
i am a Full Stack Web Developer (HTML, CSS, JS, PHP, SQL, Python) and i am about to develop a Game with one of my Friends in Unreal Engine 5.2.

Do you think it is worth to learn C++ to an intermediate Level or should i stick with the Blueprint System from Unreal Engine.

I personally think i could profit by learning C++, since the Blueprints can be a bit limiting and confusing on big Projects.

Answer 1

Learning always helps.

Answer 2

I'm doing pretty much same thing!

So here is what I recommend:

1. If you have to rush to start just stick with blueprints.

2. If you have at least 1 and a half months before the dev DO THE COURSE(this will help you with understanding ObjectOrientedProgramming)!

3. Well if you have 4 months or MORE you can learn the courses, then make simple stuff with blueprints and then translate them to C++ This helps but is tedious and long...
