Ask Lemmy

I had >5000 hours in WoW by 2007, haven't checked since.

After xfire started supporting java games and before it ceased to exist, I clocked in some 2000 hours into Minecraft. I suppose 4000 hours into it isn't an unreasonable estimate.

1000+ hours, Port Royal 2, over the last 6+ years. I just love expanding my trade empire.

Hearthstone for me. I don't know the hours, but I've been playing since it launched, and I'm close to having 1000 ranked wins on all classes (Death Knight still needs a lot) and I'm not even that good, so I've lost even more.

Add in messing around with Battlegrounds, Tavern Brawls, and ugh, Mercenaries on top of that.

I can't even imagine how many hours that was.

On the new PS5 firmware beta, it lists my most played games.

Rocket League is at the top with 1,027 hours. 😬 Though I haven't played it for a couple of years now.

4 figures:

• Skyrim. I don't regret it. It was like escaping into another world and with mods is endlessly varied. Some of the mods were genuinely moving and stuff like The Forgotten City or Enderal are food for the soul.

• Fallout 4. Don't regret that either. A much needed escape and with mods it's endlessly varied. Also enjoyable building settlements.

• New Vegas: same as skyrim.

• Star Trek Online MMO: regret it. It wasn't fun after the first hundred hours, it was like feeding an addiction at a very low point in my life. I returned after many years, and had much the same experience. Doubly sad because Trek has given me so much joy over the years.

Guild Wars. When i was younger it was my life, played almost 18 hours everyday for years. Then less when the game become outdated in 2012 with Guild Wars 2 drop. Played second game too but didn't last more that two years. Probably in 12 years I have 25.000 hours totally from both games. Now I'm playing something else but with so much less enthusiasm, and actually I am about to drop any game to looking forward to the real life.

2,732 hours in Rust. I'm not proud of it

I have like 10000 hours into Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 i guess between 7000 and 8000.

Also have lots of hours into counter strike, don't know how much but it's also a lot.

720 hours in Battlefield 2042, I know I'm not proud of this either.

I remember being amazed when I hit 100 hours in Final Fantasy VII, thinking that a game could never match it. Then I put 12,000 hours into World of Warcraft over about 12 years, so I guess I lacked imagination. I don't think in the rest of my life I will ever be able to beat that with a single game.

Over 5000 on Battletech (2018)...very active mod community, has several complete overhauls to make the game an almost new experiance

1302.2 hours on DayZ. Havent played since april though. Its a game ill play 30 hours a week until a server reset and then I wont touch it for months.

Destiny 2 and elden ring have been my latest ones though with 469 hours on ER and 365 on destiny 2.

Thousands upon thousands of hours in Civilization games through out the years. Hundreds in Minecraft and Terraria also.

Oh, and Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Another game with hundreds of hours in.

3000 hours in counter strike and in minecraft it gotta be over 5000 hours, but there is no way to check

I've got a little over 1,350 hours in Fallout 4, probably that many across Fallout 3 + NV, and gawd knows how many in Minecraft. Nothing record breaking.

Literally hundreds or even thousands of hours playing gran turismo games, especially now. I've spent 12 hours on multiple occasions making liveries, not even racing.

Not sure exactly how many hours, but it's League for me. Low 4 digits I think from the 4k games I've played over the years

Of those that are tracked, anyway, for me is Arma 3 with 1500+ hours. It barely beats out TF2 by 2 hours.

Untracked would probably be Ultima Online. I played that game for over a decade.

When Super Mario 64 came out, I stayed up all night until about 8 the next morning playing it because I wanted to beat the whole game before going to sleep.

Over 200 hours on Death Stranding. During lockdown it was like therapy. Not into MMOs. Possibly more on other games but that is the one that surprised me most when I saw how long it took to platinum it. And then game+ing it too.

I’ve never really been more than a casual gamer. However, my answer is probably RuneScape. I had a pretty heavy run of it in like 2004.

I wonder if my account is still out there somehow

870 hours in Destiny 2

EverQuest. I damn near flunked high school from all the binge sessions. The last time I logged in it was well over a year /played. Waiting on random spawn timers was wild.

~260000 and counting
