What's the best game engine for me? (lemmy.world)

Hey folks! First time poster and keen to get involved with the community.

I'm looking to all of you for any recommendations for an engine that'd suit what I'm looking to do. First and foremost, I have next to zero experience in developing, coding and all that jazz but once I know what engine to work with I'm keen to get to learning.

What engine would most suit a RPG game that's 2.5D isometric view, is kind to new developers and has a whole load of reference material so I can teach myself as I go?

I'm fully aware that y'all probably need more information to work on so I'm happy to answer any questions that'll help narrow down what I'm after.

Thanks!

They did, but also they showed that they can never be trusted again.

If you're starting from scratch, Godot is a much more sensible choice—any unity studio with the ability to do so, will be dropping it as soon as they can

Edit: also gotta add if you have no coding experience whatsoever, you're probably best addressing that first. If you can't build a simple application, you will probably not succeed in building a game.
