I have had my eye on UE for years now. It’s amazing how far everything has come in UE4.
Even though I fully agree that the 19 dollars-a-month was affordable, for a game design hobbyist like myself, I wanted to be able to learn on my free time, but the commitment to a monthly payment kept me from doing so. To students, or simply, any young kid with a computer who wants to learn, free access means everything.
I look forward to UE4’s future.
