This, this and so much this.

Unreal 4 is literally the most fun I've ever had with a game engine.

I am a novice at making games at best so I don't think 19 bucks a month is worth it.

no, you only have to pay $19 once, period. if you want to continue getting updates, then you have to keep paying. otherwise, you can cancel your subscription right after you pay the first time (although I would suggest waiting until the day before your next payment, just in case an update is released during that month). you can still sell your game even after that. the only restriction will be that you won't have access to later versions of the engine

Is unreal engine 4 more user friendly then Unity?

unless you're going to pay for a unity license, I don't think I would suggest it in the first place
but anyway, Unity doesn't have Blueprints. it might have some third-party visual scripting systems, but I can't say anything of the quality of those

[otto-san]

visual scripting isn't really relevant if you have a decent coder but it's nice for teams or people more skilled in other areas. either way, i wouldn't categorise it under user-friendliness

I've only used Alice and a little bit of Unity with little to no coding experience, what would suggest for me to make 3d games?
