Pick three project and complete each one from start to finish, then ask yourself if you still want to create games. This can be creating a clone of games to see if you can actually do it since you do need to start somewhere. I would recommend creating a clone for learning purposes ( in order ) of Flappy Bird, Super Mario (NES) first level, and Mr Jump Levels 1 to 3. Even at a slow pace each one should take no longer than 30 days each if you dedicated a few hours every day to it.
If you can successfully replicate these three games (doesn't have to be perfect) this should give inspiration or more knowledge to accurately judge and answer the question since you will have your own practical experience and know what it takes to accomplish the projects.

Great point.
The question is, really, whether you enjoy the actual process of making the game. And the best way to figure that out is to make a game.
