I'm halfway through the second course and so far it has been great - from never having even opened Unreal I am now creating scenes and rendering out cinematics. My only critisism would be that it
needs an update as some of the lesson steps don't match with the latest version of Unreal 4, and it can be frustrating having to work out where the comparative settings/controls are (this also goes for
importing some of the FBX files from DAZ Studio). Having said that, it is still a very enjoyable!

I’m still working through the additional content but finding the tutorials easy and fun to follow. I really think that these videos will become great reference for me moving forward with unreal, being able to
check back when needed. This helped me see the potential of a program that at first glance was daunting. Big thumbs up.
