Skyrim and Satisfactory.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Terraria. I don’t know why but the progression in the game feels so damn addicting. Mods add onto it by alot too

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Factorio 5k+ atm

Unless we count pokemon, played that to death when I was younger, would be willing to say I have "young person time" amount of hours in the Gameboy versions.

DotA2 and possible WoW next.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Old-school RuneScape, 12k hours, another 6k hours on rs3 pre-eoc. Over the course of 21 years.

I quit a couple years ago for good, but my main account on RuneScape was created in classic as a kid. I had about a year and a half of PLAY time on the account, mind you the vast majority of that was back when you had the hard 5 minute afk timer, so that was at least moderately active play. Then if you add my ironman account I have nearly 1/15th of my whole life logged into RuneScape. I don't regret it, my whole friend group as an adult stem from those friendships I made online during my young teen years. However, as a modern game as much as I have a place for it in my heart, I found I had more of a negative addictive relationship with it. Maybe I always did, but I didn't feel a negative mental effect at a young age.

I have over 1k hours in The Long Dark and 7 days to die. Around 500 in space engineers, darkest dungeon, binding of Isaac, enter the gungeon, grim dawn, and satisfactory. ~300 hours in ToME4 and Caves of qud each. That's just steam stuff though, there are a lot of games that I know are up there that aren't on steam.

I'm sure I have at least similar numbers to 500-1k if not much higher in Diablo 2-3, and I'm sure more than a few thousand in wow though I lost my og account after wotlk because I forgot the details when I quit so I'm really not sure.

Historically:

  • XCom - Enemy within (with Long War mod)
  • Kerbal Space Program
  • Crusader Kings 2
  • Rimworld
[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

My top four on steam are:

  • Garry's mod - 2800 hours
  • CS:GO (CS2 now) - 2100 hours
  • Terraria - 1000 hours
  • Team Fortress 2 - 555 hours
[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

If we're counting every Pokémon game as a single one, then that. Otherwise, probably Skyrim. I must have like 2000+ hours across all of its versions.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

MMO wise, it has to be World of Warcraft. Played it nonstop when I was young.

2nd place is Oxygen Not Included.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

World of Warcraft and then Final Fantasy XIV.

And it's not even close.

On and off for over a decade I've played the original Borderlands on xbox360, so definitely that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I think that Borderlands still had the best gameplay loop because of its more random loot system.

You didn't have the legendary items dropping from specific enemies, so instead of farming bosses for a specific item, you just run around playing the game. Every time you opened a chest it was exciting because there might be something good inside.

Oh, and the legendary guns could be stupid powerful. I got a Hellfire with my Lilith at level 25 or something, and it still melted enemies at level 70 because of the elemental effects.

If I could get that loot system with BL2's story and level design and the Pre-sequel's OZ kits I think it'd be perfect.

I have over 1500 cumulative hours invested in No Man's Sky and Minecraft respectively. I am a casual gamer. I started playing Minecraft in 2012 and NMS in 2017.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Kerbal space program

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

The Total War series, I have 300+ hours on Shogun 2, Rome 2, Empire, and Warhammer 2 each. Almost 100+ on most others. Probably have 1000+ hours on League of Legends too.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The Bethesda RPGs: Skyrim, Morrowind, Fallout series (although most of the hours probably into NV, which wasn't actually Bethesda).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I have crazy high hours on Skyrim because I replayed it in French and Spanish. It is a very fun way to get the cheapest language immersion ever (though your vocabulary becomes a little, um, specialized)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Votre français est très bon, mais vous avez un accent étrange. D'où venez-vous ? ("Your French is very good, but you have an odd accent. Where are you from?")

"Skyrim."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Je parle aussi dragon. Foos!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

And also Satisfactory. I think I kinda like it better than factorio

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

O! The pain! Cractorio for life!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

based on this, you should try Rimworld if you haven't yet. I've put over 1000 hours into it and i don't do that with anything

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

It’s on my wishlist… but I haven’t had time to play anything else since I’ve spent most my time in satisfactory

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

That I know of (3000+): Team Fortress 2

Probably(500+): Super Mario 3, or Apotris

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Over time: probably Contra on the NES, Tetris and Bionic Commando on the GameBoy, Operation Wolf and Sinistar in the arcade. DOOM, Duke3d, and XEvil on the PC. CS 1.6 and CS:S in college. The Gears series on the 360.

Then I had a decade or so gaming drought. More recently: Batsugun, Ketsui (Deathtiny and Death Label), Danmaku Unlimited 3, and Battlefield 2042.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Sadly League of Legends, probably Skyrim next, Overwatch and Terraria

I also play FGO since the NA server released(7 years ago) but I don't play more than 20min daily

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Dark Age of Camelot. 6000 hours on my main character, and I had more or less ten characters… I’ll never beat that amount of dedication into a game.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Around 2.6k hours in CSGO. Quit playing CS2 shortly after release :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Need a buddy to play with? I've got ~5k hours

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm a bit ashamed of it, but Overwatch, I really enjoyed the multiplayer and played with some cool people I met in game. Stopped playing when OW2 released.

My second most played game is Destiny 2.

Maybe something is wrong with me...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Monster Hunter World. I usually stop playing games after I roll the credits, but I have been addicted to min/maxing in that series since Tri.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Sadly as I get older I game less hours, so most of my games on this list are older. LoL, wow, Dota 2, modern warfare 2 (2009), Wingspan(online boardgame), PubG battlegrounds, counter strike 2, terraria. I haven't played fps, wow, or dota for years, but they still dominate this list. It's funny because if I made a list of my favorite games, it would include almost none of these, except terraria.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

When I played on PC more EverQuest, counterstrike, TF2, wow, Skyrim

After playing more on console ff14, elder scrolls online, pillars of eternity 1/2, and souls games (ds2, ds3, bloodborne, elden Ring)

I also like to play Indies and smaller games but those are the ones I keep going back to

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Braben & Bells "Elite". The original one on the C64.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Probably Warcraft Rumble.
