So, you're tasked with introducing someone completely new

>and get them to become basically proficient with vidya, enough to play most games on their own.
impossible
Normies are fucking stupid when it comes to vidya

This, fuck normies

I'd literally hand them Skyrim. There, get used to moving and looking in first person, exploring, quest systems and loot / inventory management.

After that it's up to them to decide to learn how to play strategy, sims, etc. But I think any basic RPG is enough to get people going on console games.

I'm pretty sure the person would just be overwhelmed and drop the game in less than an hour.

I just did this with my baby sister actually

>Turning 27 soon, have been moved out since I was 20
>My youngest sister (just turned 18) has apparently been playing the shit out of my 64 that I left behind
>Got her a 2DS for Christmas one year and she apparently bought herself a few VC games and Link Between Worlds
>Last year she got a laptop
>ThinkingNoises.jpg
>Take an old hard drive and fill it up with anime, emulators, games, etc
>Write short little notes in each folder telling her how to run the games, doing a short little history, describe it, etc
>Work on this over the course of a few months until it's all nice and ready
>Give it to her with my old wired 360 pad
>Two weeks later shes texting me all excited about how she's already beat Chrono Trigger and started FF6
>She watched season 1 of Hero Academia in a night
>She wants me to give her more anime and games (I gave her a "best of" deal, I have a lot more than what I copied over to her to not overwhelm her)
>Mom sends me angry texts saying they can hear her watching and playing games from her room in the middle of the night

And that was how anon started the slow transformation of turning his qt3.14 4H-doing, wrestling team coaching, Straight A-getting baby sister into a fujoshi

Fucking hilariously she just started Yuru-Yuri and I thought to myself how much she looked like Sakurako back when I watched it, and she pointed out to me "hey look I'm in an anime"

At least I'm not the only one who saw it
