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

Over the past year? Probably Vampire Survivors.

As of late? Doom (the 2016 reboot).

Of all time? I’m actually not sure, especially if you include my pre-internet / pre-always-being-spied-on-and-tracked history. But probably it would be one of the Street Fighter 2 iterations.

I don’t think I’ve even played 450 hours total of games in the past 25+ years, though. So, I’m probably a bit of an outlier around here.

I have around 500 hours in PAYDAY 2. Awesome game, too bad that the developers are unable to stop trying to go bankrupt…

banana_lama, do gaming w Is there any (single player playable) game with $10 which has made you point any go "haha" or given you an equivalent feeling because it was that enjoyable for every moment you played it?

My recommendations are:

  • Metal Gear Solid 5
  • Hollow Knight
  • Ori and the blind forest
  • Death standing

And if you’re interested Grand strategy games are a time sink like ck2 or Stellaris

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.

I don’t have an exact number but it would have to be at least 5000 hours I’ve sunk into Minecraft. Been on and off the game since 2013, I’d get bored of the current version and switch to Beta (fairly sizable community on r/goldenageminecraft), I’d do some worlds where I’d obtain stuff in older versions that weren’t obtainable later (whole wiki on Discontinued Minecraft items/blocks/structures/entities), of course I’d do modded.

I think the thing with Minecraft for me is that I spent all the time learning the game back in high school when I had more free time than I do as an adult, and I can nowadays play it extremely casually (~3 hours/week).

Its hard for me to get into new games (most recent game I got was Dredge) because I have like 2 hours a session to learn it, and it might be a few days between sessions.

Bosht,

I feel you man. It’s few and far between where there’s a game you can easily drop / pick up on a whim with limited time. The only one that comes to mind would be Powerwash Sim but Infully realize that’s not for everyone. Wish I wasn’t so exhausted I’d go try to pull a list for you. Maybe Cult of the Lamb? Anyway, hardcore Minecraft fan myself. Consider it one of my fave zen games. Enjoy man! Merry Christmas!

JustARegularNerd,

If you do have any Zen games to recommend that don’t have a long learning curve, let me know!

Other than Minecraft, I’ll casually play some old iPad games on an iPad 2 I still have.

For example Path of exile: 3100 hours on steam, on standalone client it should be much more.

I have over 6,000 hours in Dota2.

specterspectre,

I bet you’ve been cursed at in every living language. At 600 hours I called it quits. That was maybe 8 years ago. Couldn’t hack it. But, godspeed to you, great creep slayer.

specterspectre,

Flashed back to the great war.

finitebanjo,

Dang, I was feeling real smug looking down on these people with my 4134.1 hours.

grandel,

Me too!

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.

mbinn, do games w Would "suggest price" be a positive option for steam?

Also, if you wait long enough, those games become heavily discounted during seasonal sales.

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

EverQuest has about four years sunk into it back in 99. If we’re talking steam, it’s probably TF2 with about 1400 hours

My most played game over the last few years has been a timer I use to study for my statistics degree. With the steamdeck, I find myself hopping from game to game just to see how my oldies run. I might play 20 hours a week across 20 different games. Then do a 9-5 stint with the pomo timer on to do get projects going.

If you have ADHD The Legend of Pomodoro is not the cure but it makes getting difficult things done manageable. It’s pretty much an idler.

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

I have over 400 hours on Rust which is just 6 months after playing the first time. But there are players with over 10,000 hours in this game.
