but yeah i would rather just learn basics of some language first and see if you are patient enought to learn programming for few months maybe year after that learn about reversing for awhile to get in this stuff and after that build something like this

This has to be the worst paragraph ever written to man -- or that I've recently seen. I'm going to rephrase and reorder what was said so he can actually understand it.
Pick a language to start with (I suggest just looking a wikipedia code-snippets and find something you like). I'd personally start with something easy (C#, Java, VB, Pascal/Delphi -- Slightly harder than the latter listed). Gets books / references on this language, and pretty much learn the concepts of programming; as you start to grasp those, you'll be able to transfer your skills (logically breaking things down, and how to do them) to another language. Once your confident your proficient in a language, you can choose to remain with that language or start expanding into other languages (once again, see the list I originally started).
Once you feel your confident in your programming abilities, I'd recommend starting C++ and you'll start to gain new concepts which you weren't able to achieve in other languages (Examples -- don't let this confuse you it's not too important: Pointer logic (assuming you didn't choose Pascal or Delphi), Understanding the heap and stack, code-injection, possibly assembly, etc).
It's always best to learn -general- programming and then try applying that to Conquer first rather than learn coding with the mindset "LOL SUP FIRST THING I CODE WILL BE THIS 1337 ASS BOT".
And now for the unmotivational part of this post:
Programming isn't for everyone. I've known people who for whatever reason took computer science in grade 10 (programming) and continued to take it into grade 12; and I had to blatantly explain to them; "Why are you even taking this course when you clearly have failed to grasp the basic concepts in your first and second year?"
