How to make a game like skyrim?

Question

haha just joking, what I mean is how to make a basic simple game

Answer 1

You can do a basic game with any language. Just get a library to draw sth.
If u want to be more serious, check out Unity.
If u want to be even more serious, learn Unreal Engine or get into DirectX or OpenGl

Answer 2

Pickup the SDL 2.0 framework library and follow Lazy Foo's tutorials. (Google it)

Answer 3

A game like Skyrim is done by a big team of professionals. You should start with something smaller like a super mario-clone or pacman.
