Game creation

What is the best way to start making games I am a beginner and wanna get started

Start by exploring unreal engine 4. In it you can select games even without programming. They also have many free assets.

you need to have idea what you want develop ing or hire someone from upwork

I honestly used Unity & started with 3D, since I'm not much of a drawer/painter for the 2D.

Play around with the tutorial packages they have & they have a whole section on their website on how to make a game.

Make a tiny 2D game, make something super small like a clone of Pac-Man or Space Invaders. You will learn a lot, and most importantly you can finish it and move onto a bigger and better project. If you dive into Unreal Engine you won't finish anything.

Use uE4 but do your self a favour stay away from most YouTubers i started by watching them watching there courses and most are outdated or will lead you down a path of regret Learn this way.
Use youtube to do certain things like how do blueprints work and so on
DO not watch how to make a game videos yes they can help with tips and tricks but in the end run it will be more hassle
there are many free courses online that are decent and a few paid ones. hope that helps

I'm also new to Unreal engine - before that I tried to do something on the unity engine, but it's not really complicated, there's no visual editor. There you need to write everything yourself in C#.
On Unreal engine, I made game main menu on the third day of video tutorials from YouTube..

Learn programming off of youtube or some other website then learn an engine like unity or unreal.

It depends on the type of games you want to make. If you are trying to make indie mobile games then look into Unity Game Engine. If you are looking to learn game dev so that you can work in AAA high graphics games learn Unreal Engine.
