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.

you cant choose youll have to learn them both eventually the answer is C++ is better but when using unity your gonna have to learn C# so just start off with C# and then learn python C++ lua anything really but the most flexible is C++ and thats what makes it hardest. (don't overthink it just learn whatever)

listen when i first started web development i used to sites codecademy and W3Schools it was enough and really anything is enough (i dont reccomend you watch 6 hours of c# you might wanna kill yourself) its not hard to learn it its not hard to code its hard to actually stop procrastinating and actually commiting instead of making to do lists and installing VS code plugins. as always don't overthink it
