No body said “no”, so maybe in future? blueprint version only? you know you can pay 19$ once, download all you want and then cancel subscription and you can play around and learn

Ofcorse you can resume any time 🙂 i think you can sell do that even without subscription, most importently is to shere that 5% of revenue with Epic. Read the licence rules

Yes, it is completely legal to subscribe for one month (for $19) and then cancel, keeping the engine afterwards. If you sell a game made with UE4, you’ll owe 5% (as stated in the EULA) to Epic, but you don’t have to resubscribe to sell the game.
