I legit thought that middle one was a candle at first and was extremely confused.

That's if you get lucky of course, you'll be adding an extra 0 if you're unlucky.

Clockwork mansion is insane for how many paths are available. I honestly think it's the best level in the game.

1985 Super Mario Bros. This game (arguably) single handedly saved video games. All the later years were able to exist as they did because of this year.

Fun fact, the parts system has been around since the first game. The only thing 3 did different in that regard was to let you actually inspect the parts.

I started off reading this with the mindset of "I haven't played 3, but have played the previous titles so let's see what's up." Once you mentioned the twins I remembered that I have, in fact, played BL3, and I think that about sums up my thoughts and feelings on the game.

They are fine for d6's, unless you're rolling a lot of them. Definitely wouldn't work well for other numbers of sides though. Great for people who buy dice just to collect cool looking ones though.

The guy that made it used to design slot machines.

Had to scroll too far to find this one.

Honestly, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The game has like 7 difficulty options so you can choose what feels good for you (and you can change the difficulty at any time), but it's honestly pretty easy even on the higher difficulties (there are mods to make it more difficult but you can worry about those later). The game is pretty forgiving with frequent auto saves and manual saving available at any time so even if you die you don't lose much. Controls are basically standardized at this point, so it will be easier to pick up other games after the fact, and the variety of playstyles available will get you accustomed to a wide range of controller handling styles.

FF8 is my personal favorite final fantasy, and it would be a nightmare to try and explain the junction system to someone who hasn't played it. That said, it is actually really simple once you get it.
