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.

    Not a lot of single game no lifers on here… https://i.imgur.com/H9PWPxq.png Obv wallpaper engine, clicker, and perfect tower are idle things so most of those hours aren’t active so pretty much every other game I have is under 200 hours.

    Minecraft probs has like 5k+ tho.

    Deep Rock Galactic with about 1000 hrs.

    Best Co-Op game I’ve ever played with a marvellous community and its own subculture. It has been my absolute favourite game for a couple of years.

    Stopped playing though when they introduced the “flappy boots” minigame. I know it’s optional and there are mods to get rid of it, but somehow this has killed the entire game for me. Silly, but can’t help the feeling.

    In German I would say “die Luft ist raus” about this. Literally translated: “the air is out” and describes situations where something totally lost its appeal and is now just “meh”, although it was (very) appealing before.

    If you haven’t played it before and like co-op shooters: give it a try. You probably won’t regret it.

    Well, I’ll say the usual, CS2, TF2, and L4D2… with a combined total playtime this year of 60 hours… (most on TF2)

    Because… I’ve been playing this game… called Wuthering Waves., it doesn’t have any hours, only days, but if I had to guess… around 1200 hours. It’s a gacha game. Like Genshin Impact so… yeah, I’m a F2P though, and I’ve been enjoying it (with a few exceptions)

    Aside from that, Honkai Star Rail is second… with probably around the same hours… another gacha game. Then Zenless Zone Zero, as another commenter mentioned. Another gacha game.

    In my phone, I guess I play Clash of Clans and Pokemon Go occasionally.

    It’s was World of Warcraft before I quit.

    What other games had in hours, that had in days. Probably around 500 days, mostly standing around waiting for others.

    Now I play FFXIV instead.

    Much healthier…

    A nontrivial amount of my gaming time was reset by steam around 2010… IDK why, but there are games on my steam account that I know I’ve sunk over 100 hours into that show zero hours.

    Right now, one of my highest is satisfactory, sitting around 1500+ hours.

      Yeah, I used to play 1.6 and source. Then my family and job life had me quit playing for a few years. When I came back it said 1.6 hours for both. Cannot say when it happened though.

      Never got into GO, but I was probably just too old to compete at that point.

        Yeah, I have a ton of time into HL/HL2/CS:GO/Audiosurf/PvZ

        Pretty much all of that was lost.

        I did a quick Google search and according to some commenters on websites, the great reset was around 2010.

        I’ve been on steam since the early days, I think I installed it around the time that blue shift came out? I forget. But back then, if you had any HL2 title, and you put that into steam, you would get what is now known as “the orange box” (more or less). So, yeah, I got a bunch of valve games basically free and I’ve only expanded that collection.

        Recently I’ve tapered my spending on games because life/work/family doesn’t allow me a lot of time to play. Which is probably why I like satisfactory so much. If I get an hour, I can build my factory, save it half complete and go back and continue building later.

        The biggest thing that I feel like SF has going for it, is that they give you all the tools, tell you the objectives and let you figure everything else out. You have 100% control over how you accomplish the task at hand. You can save/quit anytime you would like, and there’s no demands to get things done in a particular timeframe.

        You can save halfway through a build, and you’ll come right back to where you left off. Most games now-a-days are match based, once you’re in a match, you feel obligated to finish the match, and there’s seasons or limited time objectives that you must play a minimum amount in order to even have a chance of getting… There’s just so much pressure, micro-transactions, and effort required.

    just pasted a screen snip so hopefully that worked. Not pictured: League of Legends which CS:GO only wishes it could be, Runescape (either of them) which is counted in months and Minecraft if it counted my hours would be 5 figures at least.

    I’ve got over a thousand in Space Engineers, although some of that is from leaving it on overnight to refine materials. Or possibly exiting the game, but forgetting to actually leave the main menu. Does Steam track time when the computer is asleep?

    But I’ve likely got close to ten times that number in Dwarf Fortress. I’ve been playing it off and on for close to a decade and a half now, and when I get into it whole days can just fly by.

    For the longest time, I could never understand how anyone could put more than like 100 hours into a game. The most I’ve ever gotten is 200ish, but that was from years of drunk Rocket League with friends.

    Then, in the same week, I got an adderall prescription and discovered Noita. I’m sitting at around 500 hours since June. That game has my soul.

    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 almost 4000 hours in Factorio and didn’t play it for 2 years. I swear this game is some voodoo lifetime stealing curse.

    4000hrs in Dayz. No game like Dayz has ever been able to give me the same adrenaline rush, it’s just so intense.
