Nobody who is capable of finishing a game alone thinks it's easy. How could it be? The programming touches on so many highly complex areas, you need both visual art and music, on top of having to engage with what's going to be a completely new area for most: game design. From the perspective of a developer, not a player. If you're doing 3D, say hello to even more advanced programming topics, plus an entire world of 3D art techniques. You don't do it because it's easy, you do it because you enjoy the journey. If you actually want to produce a video game for commercial reasons in a reasonable time frame, hire a team or partner with like-minded people. Cut your scope in half, or more.
