Question about coding

[xRazorZ]

So i want to become a game developer and i want to learn java. But learning java is just SOOO boring. Is this a sign that game developing is not meant for me?

Hi
As rgd1101 says most top titles use a c based language like C# and C++.
If you are intending to work for a studio producing AAA titles then you will need to do a computer science degree.
My daughter and her boyfriend did a computer science with gaming degree and both got firsts,he did a masters then got a devs job at a AAA studio,she is working as a dev but not in a gaming studio.
It is extremely competitive trying to get into the gaming industry .

I'll try C then. Thanks.

C is the language that I recommend for learning. It's still the most widely used language around and provides a very good foundation for learning C++ which is very heavily used in gaming.

This book will be your best friend.

I'm afraid that if you find Java that boring then you won't fare much better with C\C++. ultimately most mainstream languages are fairly similar.
