I can only recommend Godot. It's easy to pick up and feels like a consistent and fresh take on a game engine. For Unreal especially, for me, it felt like it would always come to the point where Unreal magic is needed to fix a certain problem. With Godot I've never had this feeling, the things you set out to do just work the way you expect them to.
Overall you get the feeling that the engine distills the best gamedev ideas of the last 10 years into one nice package and I couldn't ask for more.

- tootie 5y agoWhat about the actual output? Are 3D games written in Godot comparable in performance to commercial products?
- Natsu 5y agoI tried to get into it a little, but it feels like you end up in the deep end quickly and it's hard for me to make sense of how you hook things up. I get that there's some message passing thing going on but I don't really quite get how the objects all bind to each other or where you put your logic for controlling things. A scene seems like an interesting primitive, it's just hard for me to make sense of how to organize things into it and the tutorial basically just says add all the things you want to see on the screen into your scene and don't worry too much about wiring things up. But I sort of feel like I don't have a real model of how things interact in Godot to make sense of what they're doing yet.
