I no longer want to be a programmer, I want to be

/shrug - I do code and art, my brother does art and code. It's a subtle difference, but you cannot master one without having a good understanding of the other.

I'll always be a better programmer than my brother, and he will always be a better 3d modeller than me, but without understanding the issues that each other face we'd have no useable skill at all.

It's important to achieve a basic level of skill in each discipline of game production before specialising in one, otherwise you'll never achieve your potential because all the aspects inter-relate with each other.
