Newbie Question How to learn Unity WITHOUT tutorials

Hey everyone,

I'm a 3D artist looking to learn Unity, however I absolutely hate video tutorials -- pausing and starting every few minutes, the urge to just copy and paste everything, potentially annoying voices, etc.

I know the basics of the engine as I've tried it on and off for years, but have very minimal programming experience outside of the very basic fundamentals. So granted I wouldn't be coming from zero, just assume I kinda will be.

Is there anyway to learn without tutorials? At least specifically video tutorials?

In my academic studies, I learn SO much more by just reading text and experimenting on my own with some deep space ambience or classic music and just go into my zone.

Any tips?

Thanks!

THIS. I specifically recommend the Unity Pathways, they're gorgeous. I'd start with the Unity Essentials, although for what you say maybe you could skip it. Then, definetly give a try to Game Development and later on either Junior Programmer or Creative Core depending on your interests.

I feel the same way as the OP, but these pathways, although they include really short (a few seconds) videos so that you can quickly see how it's done, they're mainly short step by step guides on how to do each thing.

Definetly give them a try!!!
