C++ is not only industry standard but also used in an incredible amount of different professions, and the blueprint system is built specifically for Unreal and is updated frequently by the Epic team.
Learning different language ( which is also barely heard off ) just because it’s easier is a massive waste of time.
If you want to do it for a hobby or because you really have a lot of time then yes maybe. But right not to learn it purely for creating a game on a platform such as this is just pointless.
Sure C++ is not easy and it takes time to learn but every hour spent on learning such a powerful language is an hour spent for better development of your own skills.
Plus 35 000 $ for a tutorial series? I understand that with such large amount of money this course will be at least 100 hours long have many examples, ready to download projects, pdf documentation about everything in the tutorial series and an entire basic game created around that tutorial series.
