Which language should i learn for the unity game engine / unreal engine. C++ or C#

Answer 1

So your option is C#. It will be much easier to use with Unity. You're right that C++ is more in use. But C# is more friendly to novices and development using C# is more rapid.

Answer 2

Степан Смирнов Okay thanks. But I'm not new to programming (if that helps). I'm a 3D artist, and i use python scripting in Maya. I've also started using unity but just for rendering assets, I haven't really done a full game project in it.

Answer 3

At first you should choose one of engines. Small tip: UE is for FPS, Unity is for wide range of genres. So if you want make FPS (like Call of Duty, Counterstrike) learn C++ and UE, otherwise C# and Unity

Answer 4

Степан Смирнов Okay. But can C++ also be used for unity? I kind of want to learn c++ cos i figured it's more in use than C#.

Answer 5

Unity has API for C# and JS. You can use C++, but rather for making libraries.

Answer 6

What is your actual goal?To learn concrete language or engine, or game dev in general?

Answer 7

Степан Смирнов My actual goal is to learn the engine(unity), and at the same time learn concrete language.
