Really?

The teachers make it out like your screwed if you don't have certain subjects as choices.

Like I said the other day 'Miss, If I wanted to design video games for a company like Rockstar or EA Games for example, what would I need?' and she was like 'Art, ICT and TD' and then because I was rubbish at TD she basically told me I could never do it then without that.

It can be actually yeah, Everyone has said for years I'm good at art though and a few teachers said it'd be a shame if I didn't do it for GCSE but from what I've seen... it looks like ALOT of work.

Pretty much, the teachers overstate their importance tbh. I don't know if you're planning to stay on at school/college after GCSE's but A-levels are far more important. As long as you have decent grades in the core subjects, the employer wont be all that bothered about what else you got.
