On “how working game engines?”

Start by making a renderer. Cherno's game engine series Chili's DirectX tutorial Once you can draw sprites and triangles on the screen, come back here and we'll tell you the next steps.

You also have ChiliTomatoNoodle's DirectX tutorial, which gives you a good foundation for 3d rendering: Link

On “How to make 3d games without using game engine”

You start by picking up an API like OpenGL, DirectX, Vulcan, etc. Then you need to use that API and create a basic framework for yourself so you can load and render stuff on the screen. I would highly recommend ChiliTomatoNoodle's DirectX tutorials, they're very good. Or if you like OpenGL better you can try TheCherno's OpenGL tutorials. Good luck.

On “OpenGL vs Direct3D11 first for beginner graphics engineers aiming to learn Vulkan?”

For me DX11 works Great. I use (https://github.com/kevinmoran/BeginnerDirect3D11) code and (https://www.amazon.in/Practical-Rendering-Computation-Direct3D-11/dp/1568817207) Book as Learning Material. ([video also gives good introduction. The Main Reasons to Choose DirectX 11: Clean API without Version Management: DirectX 11 offers a clean API, eliminating the need for version management like in OpenGL (GL version 3.3, 4.3, etc.). Clean Shader Code: Shader code in DirectX 11 is clean and consistent, avoiding syntax changes between GLSL 3 and GLSL 4 in OpenGL. Clean Buffer Management: DX11 provides clean buffer management, and detailed insights can be obtained fr…

On “I'd like some advice on how to start getting into this”

There are 2 resources that were the cornerstones for me: Pikuma and writing a 3D software renderer from scratch (great instructor and videos) https://pikuma.com/courses/learn-3d-computer-graphics-programming Chili 3D hardware series. This is focused on D3D11, but it's gentler then stepping directly into DX12 or Vulkan. https://wiki.planetchili.net/index.php/Hardware\_3D\_(C%2B%2B\_DirectX\_Graphics)\_Tutorial\_0_Tutorial_0) [video
