You should look in the Programming and Development forum for answers on this, but some basics:
Ren'py is as good of an engine as any to use so long as you want to make a visual novel-type game with perhaps a few minigame bells and whistles. It's very easy to use and practically infinitely extendable with python. It's only worth bothering with other engines if you want to make a video game where the porn isn't the focus: Making something more complex than a minigame or two with Ren'py is possible, but onerous.
As for visuals, Daz3D is popular and you can get quite far with free assets that are laying around with no modeling skills required. But if even that is too complex a place for you to start, Honey Select has a studio tool you can use to pose characters that even a complete incompetent like me can use to make scenes of acceptable quality, and plenty of adult games are made with it:
