Answer 3

In theory yes, but in practice it's a pretty big pain, if you are writing your own engine. In conjunction with Unreal engine it is far more friendly to a newcomer.

At least don't try using raw OpenGL from the start. :) Doing most of the modern effects is pretty crazy and relies heavily on your linear algebra knowledge -- it has to be solid. If you don't trust me, try implementing tesselation algorithm yourself first before looking into books. :D
