languages for a PC game?

Question

I've been wondering, what languages are typically used in video games for the PC, and which you would say are the "best"?

Answer 1

All depends on how you want to make your game. With just your own code -that is, no engine- use Lua. Although, there are some pretty nice Lua engines out there. For 2D games, go with GameMaker studio and their C-based language. For a 3D project, learn either JavaScript or C# and couple it with Unity.

Answer 2

c# javascript for sure. i prefer c#

Answer 3

c#? JavaScript? I mean in Unity - yes. But most of the AAA games are written in C/C++. Every game engine is written in c++. So if you are to learn language that is used to produce games I'd recommend learning cpp, then Java/C#.
