if you want to easily make games, try something like game maker or rpg maker. dont really need to be a programmer to make them.

If you're really serious about this, I guess C++ is a must. If you want to do opengl games though, there are bindings for lots of languages (eg. Java, which I find much easier to learn and use, look into JMonkeyEngine or jogl if you want to go that way), but the industry standard is C++.

It depends if you plan on writing the game engine, using a framework, or using an existing game engine.

Write your own game engine - Java, C++, or Objective-C/Swift (for iOS) with a graphics library like OpenGL (Any platform) or Direct3D (Microsoft)

Use a framework - LibGDX (Java), SDL (C++), XNA (C#)

Use a game engine - Unity3D (Javascript / C#)
