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.
I have no life. Also my /played in WoW is in months if not over a year.
This is the first time I've ever come across another PS2 player out in the wild. I played on PS4 so I don't have exact hours but I stuck with it for over 2+ years back in 2017. One of my most played games for sure.
Don't have a number for it since I have it on itch.io, but I've put a lot of time into Celeste. Beating everything twice (including b-sides, c-sides, and farewell) took a while, but I've also put a bunch of time into the amazing mods it has, like Strawberry Jam and Glyph.
I have around 500 hours in PAYDAY 2. Awesome game, too bad that the developers are unable to stop trying to go bankrupt...
Rimworld: 1000 hours
7 Days to die: 500 hours
Valheim: 350 hours
Against the Storm: 300 hours
Skyrim: 275 hours
About 4.5k for dota haven't played in years. I'll never play another game that much again and I'll probably never play dota again.
Path of exile. 5k on steam but easily double that since they have their own client. Grim dawn. About 350h. Path of exile 2. What? 295 hours already? No waaay. Diablo 2. Duh. Last Epoch. 250h ish if I were to guess.
4000hrs in Dayz. No game like Dayz has ever been able to give me the same adrenaline rush, it's just so intense.
EverQuest - 8k+ (don't actually know since I've been playing since 1999 across many TLPs)
Phantasy Star Online 2 - 6k hours ( including JP servers and global)
Warframe - 4k hours
Guild wars 2 - 3.3k
Destiny 1&2 - 2500h
GTAO - 800h
No man's sky - 550h
The culling was nice until they ruined it, hunt was nice until they finally ran me off with their monetization efforts, valves deadlock is climbing my playtime ranks though. It's now 7th place at 224 hours.
Space station 14 - 265 hours
Elite: Dangerous - 265 hours
Space station 14 doesn't show up because it is a play test
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
STARBOUND!!! Dude you're the only ever person I've run into. That was one for the first games I supported in Early Access and hold a special place in my heart. I somehow lost my original save on that game and was utterly devastated. At some point I'll go do another run bit damn did that hit me hard. I had countless bases, my shop was so decked out. Ugh.
Almost 1000h (~970) in Deep Rock Galactic
Rock and Stone!
edit: over the course of a few years on and off. Playing since Beta/early access :)
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
Wurm Online must have been the one I sunk the most time into. Hey! Thanks for reminding me Planetside 2 exists!
for the last year or two its a tie between elden ring and cyberpunk2077. I actually just completed them for the first time in this last week.
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 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.
Europa Universalis IV: 2000h
Team Fortress 2: 3000h
On Steam... CS2 + CS:GO is probably at the top. I used to compete in league play. Practice, scrims, and matches and all that.
2nd is CS:S despite my last real session being 12 years ago, but that may be soon toppled by Elden Ring or 7 Days to Die.
Who knows how much time I've spent in LoL or WoW but I'm sure it's in the "several thousand hours" magnitude for each.
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.
Just reached my 300th hour in Deep Rock Galactic, so far I'm loving it :)
I know it's a bit off topic, but is PlanetSide 2 approachable for new players still? I loved the original and tried the sequel when it came out but didn't get much of a chance to play it. I'd be interested in giving it a shot
I have a lot more hours on Counter-Strike Source than that, but that was before Steam started counting hours. I also played a ton of Sims 2 and 3.
1800 hours in Noita. Just last week started what's become a perfect god run (circle of vigor and transmuted all polymorphing liquids) to get the golden necklace and consider it beaten.
Really funny that this game isn't even on anyone else's list. I guess I really am special, haha
I don't have crazy hours in it, but Noita is a game I tend to recommend to people. Hey, you! You! Person reading these words! Go play Noita!
You don't gotta no-life it, just go play it a little! It's fun!
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
Well, I seem to like 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.
My steam top 10 in hours
