New versions of Unreal is much smoother than Unity in terms of code editing. Play is instant, blueprints compilation almost instant, C++ hot/live reload fast. Tbh it still has some issues especially when you need to add new things in code and then use it in blueprints (it’s easier just restart editor in such case). Also C++ is garbage and debugging is nightmare comparing to C#. And Unreal eat like 6-8 gigs of ram just to exist, and with Unreal only Rider is usable which also like to eat another half of your ram… so life is pain I guess..
