If you want to design, then you dont need anything, except the ability to get peopl to help with your game. If you want to actually program, I would recomend learning Torque Script well, and then learning C++. On the other hand, if you want to create art in addition to designing the game, you will want to learn to use a 3D creation software, and understand the exporter, as well as understand 3D art in a whole. you should also learn to create 2D art.
hope that helps,

Even the runtime scripting language is 'C like'.
