MODERATORS
The Bethesda RPGs: Skyrim, Morrowind, Fallout series (although most of the hours probably into NV, which wasn't actually Bethesda).
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)
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."
Je parle aussi dragon. Foos!
Historically:
- XCom - Enemy within (with Long War mod)
- Kerbal Space Program
- Crusader Kings 2
- Rimworld
DotA2 and possible WoW next.
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
World of Warcraft and then Final Fantasy XIV.
And it's not even close.
Rimworld
Terraria. I don’t know why but the progression in the game feels so damn addicting. Mods add onto it by alot too
Europa Universalis 4, and it's not really a close margin. 1445 hr mark is when you've finally completed the tutorial and can start the real game.
Try Hearts of Iron 4 and the 1936 hour tutorial ;-;
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.
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.
That I know of (3000+): Team Fortress 2
Probably(500+): Super Mario 3, or Apotris
KSP
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...
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.
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.
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
Braben & Bells "Elite". The original one on the C64.
MMO wise, it has to be World of Warcraft. Played it nonstop when I was young.
2nd place is Oxygen Not Included.
Arma 3
To expand on this, DayZ, including Arma Mod. Over 1k hours
On and off for over a decade I've played the original Borderlands on xbox360, so definitely that.
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.
Kerbal space program
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.
And also Satisfactory. I think I kinda like it better than factorio
O! The pain! Cractorio for life!
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
It’s on my wishlist… but I haven’t had time to play anything else since I’ve spent most my time in satisfactory
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.
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
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.
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.
Probably Warcraft Rumble.
Craft the world, Valorant and AoE3
