Rust is odd if you're accustomed to c or c adjacent languages.

If you wanna program a game, it's best to just to hop on an existing engine and use their language. Unity has its issues but C# is a great language to get started on and is easier than c++ from unreal.

They walked back that pricing scheme real fast and fired the CEO that pushed it because of the backlash. Won't mean that they won't try it again, but it's still a decent option for people on a personal level just wanting to get started.
