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.
Stardew Valley: 421 Soace Rangers HD: 375 Cities Skylines: 363
Felt like more at the time, for all three. Guess I didn't used to game as much as I do now. I've owned X4 for two weeks and I'm at 107 hours, so it's on pace to smash those numbers.
I've played a little bit of Warframe...
Blockland... played a lot, for years. Before Minecraft, before it came to steam. It turned me onto Tribes.
Stellaris for me…
skyrim, 307 hours
If you want to go waaaay back before there was even time tracking, it would no doubt be Maplestory and Warcraft 3.
For games I can provide concrete numbers for, it's Anno 1800 at nearly 500 hours, Stardew Valley at over 400, and Rocket League at nearly 300.
I’ve spent a lot of time on the XCOM games. Installed 2 recently and having almost as much fun as the first time (this is like the 10th).
I’ve tried Risk of Rain 2 a few times. Like the comment I left about Rim World below, it just doesn’t click with me and I love shooters. Wondering what I’m missing that everyone else sees.
Yeah XCOM 2 is one of my top games by playtime. That game has stolen so many nights with "one more mission". Then they went and did that kickass expansion.
I tried War of the Chosen but find the story confusing. Did they allude to these additional factions in 2 or do they just drop you in the story as if in mid stream?
My numbers seem low compared to a lot of people here, but I also own almost 4,000 games on Steam, so I don't spend tons of time on a single game.
Also, here are my stats for 2024:
Terraria, 480 hours. Every time Im done with the game a new major update comes out and I start a new playthrough.
Assetto Corsa (in VR). Civilization was mostly my ex-wife. eFootball PES is kind of a weird one, but it has really great mods that have now been spun off into a totally free singleplayer game called SP Football Life.
Your mother (and I) play Counter-Strike 1.6
I have like 2500 hours in destiny 2. ☹️
2k in tf2
Best war themed hat simulator on the market
Dota, 9,000+ hours. I don't play it anymore though, toxic af
I now mostly play Path of Exile and World of Warships
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
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)
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.
Well, I seem to like first-person shooters:
but realistically, I have like, many dozens of games with like 30-80 hours played, I'm really into variety gaming.
The only exceptions to this are RuneScape (OSRS and RS2 back in the day), World of Warcraft (I played a ton of Cata until maybe a year before Legion), Starcraft 2, League of Legends, and Osu.
EverQuest has about four years sunk into it back in 99. If we're talking steam, it's probably TF2 with about 1400 hours
Over 700 hours in Skyrim. I don't know how that happened as it's not my usual game type. I usually go for shooters like Half-life or Serious Sam,b or puzzles like Portal or Talos Principle.
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.)
The Long Dark, I start a new sandbox every winter. 650+ hrs. I have other games I played for much longer but haven’t played them lately.
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 over 400 hours on Rust which is just 6 months after playing the first time. But there are players with over 10,000 hours in this game.
