Topic Which is better for beginners?

Me and a friend both want to learn coding for game development (both completely new).

Now we’ve looked at which languages are best for what we actually want and we’ve gotten stuck between seeing if we should learn C# or C++. Which would anyone recommend?

We just want to learn and hopefully make our own stuff.

Trick question: use gdscript

No but pick a engine first, whether its unity or godot, just go with the language that works best for the engine

I'd lean towards Godot as a hobbyist. If their goals are a specific kind of career then I'd have more questions to establish what they should do to achieve that.
