Is that the place where people get excuses why the other languages suck?

I hope not.
I just searched on Google "Why python sucks" for a clever answer, and this happened to be the first result.

Python has saved me so many times. You don't even have to know any python to start programming in it.

That's how every programming language works.

Here is a prime example of how Python users have poor logic just like the language its self.

I once learned that some people with saltwater fishtanks don't like people with freshwater fishtanks. I wasn't surprised because I've seen what coders do with programming languages.

Python for quick, dirty code. Saved me many times.

I started from Java and am currently branching out from there. As others have said, Codecademy is a great site for beginners. Code.org is a newer one (I believe) that I've heard is helpful as well.

I started off with HTML, and now I know the basics plus a little more through using codecademy and school courses

I looked at co decadent and started with Python. A lot of people told me it was easy and it is. Gonna do Java next.

I suppose I should put this out there, but ROBLOX is a fairly good game-creating thing. It uses Lua.

Just be aware, the community kind of sucks.

Hoping to learn everything that I could prepare. What should be the easiest language to learn that involfes 3D Structure Graphics?

When I was first learning to program, using Python, I believe I used something called Panda3D (didn't look it up, not for sure that's correct). They used Panda3D (or whatever) on many Disney games such as Pirates of the Caribbean Online.
I'd say if you're totally new to programming and want to make a 3D game, Python was soooo simple.

Don't know why I could directly edit that. Anywho, do most games use C++ or Java? I have been aiming to make a 2D Platformer at some point but I don't know what code to learn along side using UE4

UE4 is only compatible with C++.
The language you want to learn totally depends on what you want to do with it.
Mobile applications mostly use Java (though you can still use C++). PC and console games are mostly built using C++.

In the end, C++ is the best language, agreed by my C++/Java professor in my university. But don't let that discourage you from using other languages (Java, Python, C#, etc) because C++ is fairly more difficult than said others.
