MystikIncarnate, do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

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.

MystikIncarnate,

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.

I didn’t pick up any of the deep discount items but I did pick up a few items on my wishlist. I picked up Mouthwashing, WitchSpring R, Little Kitty Big City, the Nonory game collection and Okami HD. I already have the last two but I wanted them in the Steam library so I can play them on my deck.

And I’m still not very good. I blame being close to 50 on 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.

I’ve been playing a lot of ZZZ since I haven’t been on my computer for gaming all that much. Can’t recommend it if you can’t stomach gacha mechanics, the energy thing and weekly caps on endgame progression suck. I just enjoyed the main story and the character side stories enough to finish everything and grind up my roster to 50/60.

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.

AngryCommieKender, (edited ) do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

Ok, so I’m 44, and my parents literally played D&D and video games with us growing up. I literally don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t gaming.

That being said.

According to Steam:

Factorio: 4,330 hours

Dyson Sphere Program: 2,506 hours

Skyrim: 2440 hours

Stellaris: 2,237 hours

Dungeon Defenders: 1644 hours

Terraria: 1630 hours

Fallout 4: 602 hours

Also I probably have well over 10,000 hours in 2.5 edition, 3.0, and 3.5 edition D&D. Only counting actual tabletop time.

That’s also not counting a fuckton of games that I have played on various consoles starting with a TI-99/A and and Atari 2600 as well as most of the early Nintendo consoles. I branched out once I got to college.

My numbers are actually quite low. I know multiple people that have 20,000+ hours in their favorite games.

Bosht,

Oh my god yes Dyson Sphere Project. If you liked it and Factorio give Satisfactory a shot. It’s first person but an amazing experience.

gazter,

Satisfactory scratches that same itch, in a totally different way. Adding that third dimension throws a lot of Factorio people off, because it makes it ‘too easy’- if you build it wrong, it’s fine, just go up a level.

Nah fam, play some more. Just going over the top song gonna cut it off the first few tiers. Especially if you want your factory to look good.

DrDickHandler,

Finally someone mentions Factorio, especially since the DLC just came out.

MystikIncarnate,

I saw the OP and I was thinking “those are rookie numbers”

This is more like it.

Blackmist, (edited ) do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

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.

rbits, do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

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.

Gaffe, do gaming w anyone here have experience with portmaster games? help needed

Is the game data actually in the portmaster directory when you browse the SD card on a PC? I know many pm games require copyrighted data to run (half life for example)

A lot of these stock OSes are crudely translated from Chinese perhaps “ready to play” isn’t literal.

I’ve gotten several portmaster games working on ArkOS on my Anbernic devices, check their wiki it’s probably similar to the setup required on the anbernic stock OS

sleepybisexual,

Basically j copied the shell script and the folder.This was a game that didn’t need extra data. I put the files in from pc

DdCno1,

So you didn’t install the game from within Portmaster on the device itself?

sleepybisexual,

Stock os doesn’t have postmaster, nor support for the client itself to my knowledge

Bosht,

Disco_Dougie, do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

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.
