- Character, object and scene design - Graphic Art and Graphic Design
- Overall game development - Computer Science or Computer Engineering
So when you say "Video Game Design", you need to know which area of video game you want to get into first. Most games these days are driven by something call a Game Engine (features, physics calculation etc), if you want to be doing this type of work, you probably need to achieve a Master degree in Computer Engineering, specifically in the area of Virtual Space engineering.
Good luck

Story design will you learn on a small basis while learning 3D Design.
But if you want to be a story design starting to write books is better.
Game Programming is not game design. It is Game Programming.
I do not know what he ment, but game design is either a story writer or a 3D modeller.
** A master degree is never needed. Just good to have, you can come as far with only a bachelor.
