I was looking at my playtime for some games and realized I have over 450 hours in PlanetSide 2.
I've been wanting to find a new game to sink some hours into so I'm curious what Lemmy plays the most.
EverQuest has about four years sunk into it back in 99. If we're talking steam, it's probably TF2 with about 1400 hours
This is the first time I've ever come across another PS2 player out in the wild. I played on PS4 so I don't have exact hours but I stuck with it for over 2+ years back in 2017. One of my most played games for sure.
I have over 6,000 hours in Dota2.
I bet you've been cursed at in every living language. At 600 hours I called it quits. That was maybe 8 years ago. Couldn't hack it. But, godspeed to you, great creep slayer.
2k in tf2
Best war themed hat simulator on the market
For example Path of exile: 3100 hours on steam, on standalone client it should be much more.
Fuck yeah Factorio! You should give Satisfactory a shot!
I don't have an exact number but it would have to be at least 5000 hours I've sunk into Minecraft. Been on and off the game since 2013, I'd get bored of the current version and switch to Beta (fairly sizable community on r/goldenageminecraft), I'd do some worlds where I'd obtain stuff in older versions that weren't obtainable later (whole wiki on Discontinued Minecraft items/blocks/structures/entities), of course I'd do modded.
I think the thing with Minecraft for me is that I spent all the time learning the game back in high school when I had more free time than I do as an adult, and I can nowadays play it extremely casually (~3 hours/week).
Its hard for me to get into new games (most recent game I got was Dredge) because I have like 2 hours a session to learn it, and it might be a few days between sessions.
I feel you man. It's few and far between where there's a game you can easily drop / pick up on a whim with limited time. The only one that comes to mind would be Powerwash Sim but Infully realize that's not for everyone. Wish I wasn't so exhausted I'd go try to pull a list for you. Maybe Cult of the Lamb? Anyway, hardcore Minecraft fan myself. Consider it one of my fave zen games. Enjoy man! Merry Christmas!
Ok, so I'm 44, and my parents literally played D&D and video games with us growing up. I literally don't remember a time in my life that I wasn't gaming.
That being said.
According to Steam:
Factorio: 4,330 hours
Dyson Sphere Program: 2,506 hours
Skyrim: 2440 hours
Stellaris: 2,237 hours
Dungeon Defenders: 1644 hours
Terraria: 1630 hours
Fallout 4: 602 hours
Also I probably have well over 10,000 hours in 2.5 edition, 3.0, and 3.5 edition D&D. Only counting actual tabletop time.
That's also not counting a fuckton of games that I have played on various consoles starting with a TI-99/A and and Atari 2600 as well as most of the early Nintendo consoles. I branched out once I got to college.
My numbers are actually quite low. I know multiple people that have 20,000+ hours in their favorite games.
Oh my god yes Dyson Sphere Project. If you liked it and Factorio give Satisfactory a shot. It's first person but an amazing experience.
I have around 500 hours in PAYDAY 2. Awesome game, too bad that the developers are unable to stop trying to go bankrupt...
Over the past year? Probably Vampire Survivors.
As of late? Doom (the 2016 reboot).
Of all time? I'm actually not sure, especially if you include my pre-internet / pre-always-being-spied-on-and-tracked history. But probably it would be one of the Street Fighter 2 iterations.
I don't think I've even played 450 hours total of games in the past 25+ years, though. So, I'm probably a bit of an outlier around here.
Path of exile. 5k on steam but easily double that since they have their own client. Grim dawn. About 350h. Path of exile 2. What? 295 hours already? No waaay. Diablo 2. Duh. Last Epoch. 250h ish if I were to guess.
EverQuest - 8k+ (don't actually know since I've been playing since 1999 across many TLPs)
Phantasy Star Online 2 - 6k hours ( including JP servers and global)
Warframe - 4k hours
Guild wars 2 - 3.3k
Destiny 1&2 - 2500h
GTAO - 800h
No man's sky - 550h
Holy shit I have no idea how many hours I have in GW2 but...yeah, a lot. Man I keep wanting to get back into it but it's so hard to, for me at least
My steam top 10 in hours
I've played "Unturned" a lot few years back. I have 2100+ hours in it. Realistically it'd be around 2000 or a little bit under.
Similar story here. For me what killed my enjoyment of it was the developer teasing and announcing Unturned 4.x but taking so long to polish it, that Unturned 3.x got abandoned.
He's come back to Unturned 3.x since I stopped playing, but the fun's no longer there for me anymore. I enjoyed the crap out of the arena gamemode and the creative servers (I basically played it more like a sandbox than a survival PVP game) but neither really have players anymore.
I have like 2500 hours in destiny 2. ☹️
I have no life. Also my /played in WoW is in months if not over a year.
It's ff14, and the actual playtime is none of your fucking business.
About 4.5k for dota haven't played in years. I'll never play another game that much again and I'll probably never play dota again.
Dota (and mostly every multiplayer competitive) is very addictive on make you think you are learning something new while you are just trying to solve the new patch.
Spelunky 1 and Spelunky 2 by far. 1000+ hours in each I still never got to the Sunken City :-(
Beyond that: Dwarf Fortress, Road Rash/Road Redemption, Oblivion, The Halos (1-3)
for the last year or two its a tie between elden ring and cyberpunk2077. I actually just completed them for the first time in this last week.
My top 10 (in order of most hours played) on Steam:
No idea what Steam has to say, but I've played more games for longer than Steam has been around, so here's a guess of mine in no particular order:
My games with over 1k hours (approximately):
Skyrim - 5,300
HITMAN - 1,350
Forza Motorsport 6 - 1,200
Other games with > 400 hours: Fallout 4 (mostly modding), Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Oblivion, all the Bungie Halo games, Red Dead Redemption 2, Battlefield 4, Minecraft, Dark Souls III, Elden Ring
Neverwinter Nights, probably 10k plus hours over the last 22 years, and Dead by Daylight (1666 hours).
Great games, both. I DM a weekly campaign on Neverwinter Nights.
Elden Ring is getting close to 1600 hours for me 😅 and I have about 1200 in Stellaris. But I probably played Jak and Daxter and Metroid Prime for thousands of unrecorded hours as a kid.
cracktorio
Minecraft and some of the Touhou games (I haven't been keeping up with the newer ones). I don't have those getting time tracked on Steam. Stardew Valley is the next most-played, and my highest played on Steam.
I also sank SO MUCH time into Nintendogs as a kid I think it is worth a mention.
If idle games count, PokéClicker.
Top 12 by play time. Definitely wouldn't have guessed some of these were up there. I'll often leave a game running while doing something else, which skews the results. I'll have to check what gog galaxy says later.
I liked Starfield as well man, I'm with you! Fallout 4 as well =]
1800 hours in Noita. Just last week started what's become a perfect god run (circle of vigor and transmuted all polymorphing liquids) to get the golden necklace and consider it beaten.
Really funny that this game isn't even on anyone else's list. I guess I really am special, haha
