Not sure if this goes here or not? but ive dabbled a little here and there with different things but i lack like every skill to make a game. Im wondering what aspect or skill is worth getting better at, for gamedev?

I cant code, i cant draw/3d art, i cant make music, im bad with ideas, etc.

Where do i even begin or what would you advise?

Pick a game engine. Godot is pretty sweet. Get started and follow a tutorial.

Choose whether you want to do 2D games or 3D. If 2D, start learning pixel art. If 3D. Learn 3d modelling software like blender. There is plenty to learn, but you can do it, so just start. Maybe pick a ridiculously small scope project to start and learn.
