An MMO called Mabinogi, but only because it's literally designed to suck as much time and money away from you as possible without you noticing. Steam says I'm nearing 5,000 hours, but more than half my playtime was from before it was on steam, so it's probably closer to 12,000 to 13,000 hours. I haven't even reached the end game yet.

At this point, I don't really play it anymore. I think from now on I need to start avoiding games that are gonna absorb that much of my time for so little progress. Definitely wasn't mentally healthy because I wasn't even enjoying myself a good way in, I was just addicted.

• Overwatch: 964 hours, still Bronze 🥉
• Elite Dangerous: 823 hours
• Eve Online: 504 hours, all in 2020
• Portal 2: 195 hours *Team Fortress 2: 143 hours

Honorable mention: Deep Rock Galactic with 135 hours in the past 4 months since I got the game.

Edit: formatting.

According to Steam:

Monster Hunter Rise, 754 hours

Back 4 Blood, 616 hours

Monster Hunter: World, 581 hours

Cyberpunk 2077, 470 hours

Hitman 3, 288 hours

World of Warcraft. In RimWorld, I have over 3000 hours logged. World of Warcraft? Conservatively, I would estimate 10,000. I haven't played since 2016, so I can't check, but that's in line with the /played time across several characters.

There are two games that I have spent a considerable amount of my life playing Planetside 2 and Path of Exile.

Planetside 2 released it was exactly the game that I was looking for. The experience of playing in an organised outfit was the best multiplayer gaming I've ever experienced.

Path of Exile is like a sledgehammer of a learning curve. Never had played an ARPG before this but once I got to maps my soul was taken indeed.

Before this left4dead 2 was the game that I had suck many hours into - what a game!

Kerbal Space Program

I have so many thousands of hours of rocket league across so many platforms at this point.

Worst part about transferring from console to PC was all my playtime data being lost.

Deep Rock Galactic at around 300h

Various versions of The Binding Of Isaac

Team Fortress 2. About 3000 hours and I haven't played it in years, I was addicted.

Kind of difficult since aside steam I have no clue on how many hours I have spent, especially for console games.

That aside, my most played game in steam are:

• melvor idle with 1500 hours (it's an idle to be fair, kind of runescape but it's only a UI, you leave it open farming)
• factorio at 700 hours (the entirety of the factory building genre is pure crack)
• risk of rain 2 at 400 hours (it's the perfect sequel and a damn fun roguelike where you stack items until your pc breaks)

Civ V: 2,444.5 hours, never played multiplayer, all but maybe 300h with communitas/vox populi

Runner up is Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous with almost 2000 hours

Rimworld, KSP1, Stellaris

War Thunder. Well over 2000 hours across two platforms. I regret every minute and every penny spent.

Rocket League has to be at the top along with Forza. Driving aimlessly without burning fuel in scenic views takes the chart

Stellaris

No Man's Sky. I think I'm around 800 hours on that one

Tabletop Simulator. In 2020 my weekly gaming group couldn’t meet anymore, until we discovered that solution. We still meet in person occasionally but we have been playing every week online. I’m genuinely not sure how I would have gotten through the lockdowns without it.

Hard to say, I've been on an OpenTTD (since Transport Tycoon), Dwarf Fortress (since .31), Minecraft (since Tekkit) and Factorio (since .11) loop for several decades now, with 1000s of hours in each. I tend to play one at a time, currently doing Enigmatica 6 Expert.

I must say, there are a surprising amount of factorio players on this threat, glad to see that!

Elder Scrolls Online, by far

FFXIV with over 5k hours.

Easily Rocket League. I think I’m somewhere around 2,000 hours at the moment.

ooh, astroneer is great! haven't played it myself but seen some gameplay of it. mine is Planetside 2 with about 2400 hours... most of that is from the past two years I'd say

Honestly? Skyrim. Played it a few times on different platforms. Different builds, different experiences.

1056h in Team Fortress 2, which is the highest I can verify at least. I'm sure I've put more time in Sims 4 over the decade but with multiple installs of pirated copies I have no way to verify that lol

If we count map editors then most likely C&C: Generals: Zero Hour or ARMA 3.

If we don't could editors then probably Halo 3 or MW2, maybe Stellaris.

Minecraft Factorio EVE: Online Cs:go LoL

Definitely Morrowind! The Elder Scrolls III. Oh, I might actually start it back up again at some point.. Maybe one should try the Tamriel Rebuilt mod.

I probably have years of playtime on Super Smash Bros. Melee for Nintendo GameCube

Before the community died off I had put just under 20,000 hours into Subspace / Continuum (mostly on EG). No, that's not a typo. I learned what addiction looks like as I grew older.

Between that, NexusTK, The Realm and an unhealthy obsession with SNES JRPGs I don't know how I managed to make it through grade / high school...

I would have to say it’s between:

• Halo 2/3
• Cod (so many)
• Minecraft
• Factorio - 180 hours

Minecraft was before Factorio and not sure how many hours. I’m sure a lot more than Factorio and the others were when I was younger and particularly Halo I was the best person around my circle by a mile, like levelling up to 50 with a new account in less than 15 games so I must have played for years m

CS:GO 5000+ hours wasted in my 20s

Dead By Daylight has consumed more of my life than any other game at 1600 hours (since 2018), and that’s still rookie territory. I’ve never been able to commit to a game for very long, maybe 40-80 hours max and that was only two or three games in my life. DBD just has a hold on me.

What, recently?

Historically, Destiny or Borderlands, probably the latter. But lately, I'm spending all of my time in Factorio.

I haven't looked at the hours stat; it'd probably only depress me.
