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.
Can't access my time spent right now, but between Warframe and idle/incremental games, THOUSANDS of hours.
Does that count as cheating?
NGU Idle, almost 4k. Warframe, about 2300 roughly.
(I lied about not having access.)
Definitely Minecraft. I don't play it much anymore but when it was a kid I used to play it all the time.
Probably being paying that game on and off for 15 years. I have to save a pocket money in order to buy it, I think it was about £12, no I have a mortgage.
I have nearly 4000 hours in cs
Saw a dude with over 10k hours. Crazy
All my games with over 100 hours playtime. Outside of those, probably Minecraft which must be over 2000 and some console games, maybe a couple Zelda games and Persona 3 FES at 100-200
edit: if you're looking for recommendations, I definitely say Spelunky 2. Try to go for all the achievements and it's a super difficult grind. Probably the hardest game I've played but very rewarding
Easily minecraft. I love just fiddling with making random machines or decorating or optimizing pathways. Sometimes i just want to run around with a flaming sword and kill every cow i see
I really enjoyed Risk of Rain 1 but I don't get why people like Risk of Rain 2. They completely changed the game and it plays like shit. Is it only possible to like it if you didn't play the first one?
I played the first one when it came out and I still liked the second.
I played RoR1 a couple years after release, RoR2 on release, and RoRR on release. I still like 1/Returns better than 2, but I like 2 as well. They are honestly pretty similar in gameplay, but I think the 2d style leaves a lot more room for boss moveset creativity.
I only played RoR 2 and i never understood RoR 1.
Maybe you're right - two different audiences?
I really did not enjoy Risk of Rain, RoR2 however I played many hours of.
I played RoR1 first, years before 2 was even announced. I still like RoR2. It's been better and worse with different updates, it's definitely a lot worse with the DLC and much better with certain mods. Both games are kinda broken and unpolished under the surface, they're really not so different
I haven't played RoR1, but loved RoR2, but I also tend to prefer 3d games over 2d. I haven't played since the latest xpac, so I don't know if they fixed the things they broke or not.
Elite dangerous 3k+
The division 1 3k
The division 2 1k
Escape from Tarkov 15k
I like punishment
2k hours on DotA2. No regrets. It’s an amazing game. I loved “studying” that shit. Optimizing my game.
I was never really that good but that isn’t the point
I used to have about 4000 hours logged in tf2 and counter strike source, but they dropped thier playtime database at some point since then 😅 so now my top one is rocket league at around 600 hours
Minecraft.
Not tracked on Steam but Deus Ex (Randomizer mod), The 7th Guest (speedruns), and a few hundred hours in Overwatch
Before this I used to play certain games exclusively, often for 10+ hours a day (beefy laptop at work and then home).
QuakeWorld - '98-2003
Ragnarok Online - 2003-2008
WoW - 2008-2012
EVE - 2012-2014
Definitely WoW overall, but I don't know how much time. Minecraft is around 300 I think. Factorio is a fairly recent addition for me, but is leading my steam library now, with Terraria in second. I assume RuneScape would be a contender as well. Maybe ESO too... I used to have a bit of an MMO problem.
Man, years ago I grabbed an add-on for WoW that made a database of everything across all characters. It tracked gold, items, etc, and playtime.... I was not prepared to see i had over a year of playtime.... Which granted, includes AFK and time in queues, but still.
About 1000 hours in Elite:Dangerous, my most-played Steam game. Kinda bums me out that it was all 2020-2022 gameplay for the first 900 hours but I haven't had time to get back into.
Valheim continues it's slow burn at about 400 hours since 2020.
No times on Xbox games, at least not from the OS. Fortnite has probably become my top game there. Whatever. It's not just for my entertainment. Assassin's Creed Odyssey I think had somewhere over 200 hours in the save file time. I'd love to know how many hours I put into Forza Motorsports 4 when custom paint schemes was a technological feat. Ace Combat 4/5/7 also have a ton of replays for me since the bonus medals are so tangible. Far Cry 2 doesn't have a ton of hours, but I was definitely infatuated with it circa 2010. That night time desert still calls to me
I also put well over 1000 hours in. Real disappointed they seemingly gave up on it. The one thing I wanted was to walk around my anaconda aimlessly while I pass my destination at 20c.
The Thargoid war seemed pretty exciting. I did some ground-based ship battles and was decent at it, but I couldn't commit the time for a space battle, for a titan battle, or for a foot battle. I can't say I want to walk around my ship, but I'd take it if it meant a more realistic transition between ship and foot, though. I still pop in for quick pirate hunting at nav beacons. I'm always getting fomo about the latest credit farms but have given up on owning a carrier. I appreciate the bio exploration as an expansion on long distance exploration since the payout is comparable to casual combat, at least.
But yeah, ultimately, it's a fairly empty game. Lots of space, little variation. Obviously I enjoyed it enough to put 1000 hours into. No regrets there. But I was very into the lore and community stuff so it was as much roleplay as it was gameplay
I basically dropped it once they stopped doing regular community goals. Those were fun since you ran into a lot of people. One of my best memories of the game is getting to a random small station in a CG and needing to wait in the surprisingly orderly line of ships and BSing for 30 minutes. How mundane sitting in line was while being in a damn space ship lol.
My personal top playtime games with hours:
Minecraft - untracked but I can confidently state 10,000+ hours.
War Thunder - 4,700 hours
CS:GO/CS2 - 1,900 hours
Dota 2 - 1,700 hours
Gmod - 1,400 hours
Civ V - 800 hours
Factorio it's over 6000 last time I checked
Almost 2k here
I bow to you master. I'm incing close to 1000.
The factory must grow.
Playing it with my boyfriend, I have about 500 hours, about to head to aquilo for the first time, wish us luck!
On steam, CS:GO with 2k+ hours. CS2 is shit tho.
Other than that, literally countless months in Minecraft.
I've been saying the same thing! CS2 is the worst update to a game I've ever seen
I, and a lot of other people, have extreme lag (max 40 FPS permanently, 1s+ lag spikes) on Maps like Train and Basalt. I upgraded from a 1070 to a 7800 XT. AND STILL ONLY HAVE MAX 100 FPS INSTEAD OF THE 200+ I USED TO HAVE. The contrast is HORRIBLE. Even CTs in front of a white wall are hard to spot now.
Subtick is ass. Where you were minorly impacted by higher ping in GO, you're royaly fucked with low ping now.
There are no useful console commands anymore. Want to see clip brushes? Go fuck yourself.
The worst part? There's no Linux build for the "legacy" GO version!
They still have 1.6 online as seperate game. They still have Source online as seperste game. BUT THEY REPLACED GO. RIGHT OUT OF CLOSED BETA. WHY NOT JUST MAKE IT PUBLIC, SCALE CS:GO SERVERS DOWN AND CS:2 SERVERS UP???
And, of course, way fewer maps and no dangerzone. Valve tests Alpha-Software on us, for years now. That's fucked up.
I don't play as much anymore, but I have roughly 1200 hours in Diablo 3.
In Steam, my top most hours played are: Sims 3: 945 Mad Max: 609 Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: 230
Xbox doesn't tell me the time played for all of my games, but I know for sure I have a stupid amount of hours invested in Dead Space 2 and LA Noire. It does say I have about 650 hours in Resident Evil Revelations 2, but that's because I really enjoy Raid Mode.
Rocket league, easily 10k hours then escape from tarkov with nearly 5k hours.
World of Warcraft
On my first character alone it was 370+ days at some point, and I retired her when the first time expansion came out. Safe to say I've spent years on that game, even though I don't even remember how long ago I quit.
Yep, my main has around 400 and I don't even want to think about adding up all the many alts and dead HC characters at this point ... They don't call it world of warcrack for no reason. I will say I have had a ton of fun with it over the last 15 years. I've only played casually witha few very brief stints of raiding a little more seriously.
Edit : Apparently I do not know how to embed images
GTA 5 (online side) - 1,622
Oxygen Not Included - 1,308
Path of Exile - 1,251
7 Days to Die - 865
Warframe - 705
Elite Dangerous - 672
Rimworld - 505
On Steam*:
Not counting idle games, which have an artificially inflated playtime:
*Not counting games on other platforms (minecraft) or games obtained through extralegal means (spacewar!)
**Also most recently played
Shout out Planetside. Haven't logged on in a while, I wonder how many hours I have in it. I've got over 2k hours in Civ V, over 1k in xcom 2, csgo, halo mcc. Who knows how many hours in Minecraft and fallout that were never logged
