Hey guys, it's been about 3 weeks into C++ console development and I am understanding things great!! I found a nice .pdf online.

Here is my problem. I want to start doing game development and this means in C++ having to get OpenGL or ..... all the other choices.

My question is: Would it be easier to learn C#, then use a simple engine like Unity? As I am simply a beginner and have not yet created anything.

In C++ it just seems like this huge process when in C# the book for game development looks way better the index seems to offer so many more things than C++ did where it had me create some tic-tac-toe.

The C# way may sound simple but I wonder if C++ way will be better for me in the long run as I hope to complete my own engine, 2D game with Sound, AI, GUI, and if I have time Multiplayer (Where 1 player is W,A,S,D and the other is UP,DOWN,LEFT,RIGHT)

I hope I was descriptive enough for a good answer.

Thanks a bunch in advance if your able to point me in the right direction and explain why? TY

I am not starting over every 3 weeks, I'm wondering 3 weeks in if I should change paths or not.

No no no thats not it I know the languages are capable of these things, it's just I want the most of learning. C# seemed to have a bunch more stuff that the C++ book didn't so I was asking which would be better as a started; C#/Unity or C++/DirectX?
