I discovered today that my most played game on Steam is Astronner with about 500 hours, and my second most played is Surviving Mars with about 500 hours.

    If MMOs count, EVE Online at well over 12,000 hours over the last 20 years.

    If not, nethack has probably consumed close to 1000 hours of my life.

    Almost certainly World of Warcraft. I don’t think I even liked it for most of the time I spent playing it. I’ve been annoyed about the overall direction since basically Cataclysm, and IMO Burning Crusade laid the foundations for most of my major complaints, although I didn’t realize it at the time. I have decided that I’m opposed to the “expansions add a new tier of everything that invalidates old content” model of expanding games. If creating diverse content that is still enjoyable at level 60 is too hard, then maybe games just don’t need to be expanded indefinitely past their original level caps.

      I couldn’t get into GW2, but I put a ton of hours into Guild Wars. My top three are probably Star Trek Online, Guild Wars, and Borderlands. Honorable mentions for Nethack and Command HQ.

    Steam says Borderlands 2, but I must’ve accidently left it running or somethingbecause I definitely haven’t played it that much.

    Next would be Sunless Seas and Frostpunk at around 200 hours which sounds about right.

    Off of what I have record of - Stardew Valley. 387 hours on Steam, just over 200 hours on my Switch, and my current file on my phone is at 87 hours - not including previous files that I do not have anymore.

    That being said, there are games that I bet would be up there as well but they don’t record time so I have no way of knowing.

    Minecraft, which has over 200 hours on my Switch alone despite most of my play time being on PC or my phone.

    Starcraft: Brood War Super Smash Bro. Melee. I don’t play these two much, anymore, but when I was young and didn’t have much else of a life, these took up an incredible amount of my time.

    I like games I can just pause and walk away from for a bit. Or just play while watching videos. So the hour counts are never really accurate. But I can safely assume in the past few years its Rimworld. It’s my game I can play while doing other stuff. But if I crank up the speed it’s engaging enough to focus on if I want to.

    Lifetime totals it may be Minecraft though, I usually go back to it every few years. The urge comes and goes.

    Im not sure about total hours…

    But several thousand in WoW. Back during release and for at least 5 years i played like 8 hours per day on avg. I would guess.

    I would estimate 10000 - 12000 hours. Maybe a bit more.

    I dont play it anymore though.

    The game i have most time played on, on steam, would be Gfim Dawn. That game is amazing.

    Probably Minecraft. But I haven’t spent an insignificant amount of time in Garry’s Mod either.

    Mine should be Monster Hunter with roughly 2-3 k hours across the series. But single-game most played hours should be Final Fantasy XIV with a little more than 1.5k hours.

    To be honest: Im not proud of any of this. Most of the time was accumulated when I was much younger and I wish I would’ve had the courage to engage in meaningful encounters with other people instead. Gaming used to be my main escape mechanism, which helped me get through some rough times, but held my personal progress behind by a good margin. A little playing on the side won’t hurt though, nowadays.

      I’m over 10k hours on FFXIV now… but on the plus side it’s where I met my wife and some good friends, so the hours I put in paid off.

        I can totally see how that did happen! It’s at least a pretty social and positive community. Not like I regret the time spent, it’s more like that I regret the missed opportunities I had in RL because of my anxieties. I’m so happy that you found your wife in FFXIV, that means you get to spend your lax time with them, which is amazing!

    seems like the only game I ever play these days is the Halo Master Chief Collection… just play through all 6 campaigns then start over again
