Thanks for the amazing and fast feedback. Its good to see the opinions of other people following the same path. Right now (As i'm not going to school for it yet) i'm just doing Code Academy courses and looking at everything online i can find. I'll check out some of the things you guys said (Like unity and such). Other than going to school to learn such things, what could i do to get a firm grip on the basics? Like for example, writing a script for OSBot? (That'd be my favorite way to learn, Helping myself with knowledge and the community with a bot) And Just to get this straight, Do most games use different softwares and languages to write their code? For example, would all Xbox One games be written in the same code, or do the developers choose what they write things with? Thanks again guys! P.S. - Sorry if i sound uneducated about the subject, ATM the only thing I've done development-wise is learn by first hand trail and error of coding private servers, and a semester of programming in high school. All of this is greatly appreciated!

I've learned the basics to Java (Made some scripts for bots, Multiple private servers, etc.) And i was wondering how related to Java are the other languages to creating applications, video games, etc? I plan on going in to Information Technology specializing in Software Engineering, and I'm just wondering how different the languages will be, and how big of a jump it is from making a game like Runescape (or a bot for it) to making a game such as WoW, Call of Duty, etc. Code Academy has helped me get the basics of some languages, is it a pretty good source to follow through with to begin? Thanks! All feedback is appreciated, and I hope to be releasing Services and Scripts In the future.
