What languages to learn?

Question

I've always wanted to create a game similar to gta with infinite freedom, but it still retains similarities to real life, to create such a game what languages should I study? Btw, just to clarify I have a pretty good understanding of the basics since I've been training on Lua for months now. Also what's best for simulating physics?

Answer 1

Python
But i think when it comes to creating games like gta alone i think it's abit hard to do mate... However something like ur usual 2D games nd maybe something similar to mine craft is possible.... Nd python is amazing 😁❤️All the best with your game 😁❤️👊

Answer 2

Python is best choice for start

Because its popular , easy syntax and wide usage

Answer 3

Dewesh Chopra python is OOP too

Answer 4

Answer 5

C++/C# with a game engine.

Answer 6

I think it just depends with the area for instance
You should try Java is the best for gamers

Answer 7

Unity with C#, Unreal with C++ and/or Blueprints (something in UE), C++ applications

Answer 8

If you want to fall in love with programming, learn python

Answer 9

For better opportunity of learning you can go for learning machine learning, deep learning, neural network techniques then check this out url: https://www.cetpainfotech.com/technology/deep-learning-training

Answer 10

When it comes to developing 3D games , I would recommend to choose many languages to learn like Java,C++,python and more to learn first, then learn some game engines like Unity3D, Unreal engine, Godot to create your own dream game

Answer 11

First of all programming is just a tool for a problem solver, logical thinker and innovator. So you want to make a game as complex as GTA? Its very interesting, but you can not just start with a complex problem so i recommend you start with something simpler, then upgrade in the future. In my opinion start with Python and then learn Pygame.
This will give you an insight of what you want to achieve. All the best 👊

Answer 12

Dude even if you take your entire live in making this game it will never be like gta ok,am sorry if l seem rude .but you can still learn c++ ,c#,python .best game engines for c++ are unreal(best game engine ever but difficult to learn like c++),cry engine ,panda 3d ,amazon lumbayard then for c# unity,cryengine(second best for aaa games after unreal) for python l don't know but it is mainly used in 3d softwares like blender. Other software needed are blender,autodesk maya,autodesk 3d studio max,mavelous designer,i clone ,foundery nuke , z brush ,cinema 4d,v ray .l think these is all pls note some are free and others paid.

Cpp and c#

Answer 18

As @Martin Taylor pointed out, indie game dev is small or non-existent. Do a less ambitious project but if the fire in you is still alight I would rather point you in a new direction, AI storytelling which gives AI storytelling characteristics, so you should be taking python, julia, cpp and learn a lot in chaos theory, probability and deep learning and game theory.

Answer 19

Most big game engines don't support python
