Experienced game developer here: if you are just starting out wanting to learn how to make games then 1000000% focus on gameplay and not technology. Almost all developers I know who starts working on games end up basically just working on engine technology and never get an actual game done. I used to be one of them so I talk from experience! :) Nowadays I just use Unity and focus on the actual hardest part of making games: coming up with fun enjoyable gameplay that isn’t just a clone of somebody else’s game.
