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 wish I could filter out idle and clicker games. My biggies are Factorio and KSP for non-idle games. Several thousand hours in each.

    4000+ hours in (edit a strategy game) as I used to be the top streamer until the publishing company fucked me around. 3500+ in Diablo 3 as I was able to Leaderboard with a solo Monk… LB’ed and didn’t earn any XP in groups… all solo!

    The only game I’ve been playing consistently for the last 7 or so years is stardew valley. I like other games, but sdv is the only one that I’m always happy to replay.

    3300 hours on Destiny. I love the game, I’ve made long friendships through it, it’s not perfect, but it brings me joy.

    That’s steam but the games I’ve put the most time into are:

    Minecraft, must be over 10k hours.

    Halo 1, 2, 3 and Reach, pretty sure over 10k hours combined.

    There’s surely some game I’m forgetting right now, just woke up.

    There are also several mobile games I must have put thousands of hours into over the years.

    The following are some of my most played

    Minecraft - Surely about 3k Hours Surviving Mars - 1k Hours Astroneer - 1.5k Hours (Mostly plaud in Early Access, newer versions kinda suck) Shapez.io - 500hours Maybe Portal 2 - 250hours

    I got suckered into playing 800+ hours of GTA Online and paying thousands of SEK for shark cards over a year or two before I realized what a terrible game it is.

    I was addicted to it, and paid money every month to buy shark cards.

    When my work situation improved however, I took a few steps back and realized that I had wasted a lot of money on it and that I was only chasing the dragon that was just out of reach, kept away from me by carefully crafted mental mechanics of the game.

    I was disgusted and refused to participate further.

    I uninstalled it right away and have never looked back.

      I never spent a dime on it, but I did play for over 3000 hours before rock star blocked linux. I enjoyed the grind rather than the reward, so it sort of became my little safe-space game when I was really stresses out. could always just go hang out with my buds for a few hours and grind out a million bucks. I’m still kinda torn up about the anticheat situation tbh, I would gladly play alone if there were any way to play the same game. but story mode just doesnt compare for me, completly different game :(

      Super proud of you internet stranger. Addictions fucking suck and are hard to break. Congratulations!

        Yeah, I never let it spiral out of control, but I did let it take all of my lessiure money for a year or two, not fun.

        But educational.

    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…

      Always more active than I think, always less active than I want considering my main method of play is leading public platoons. It’s great if you can concentrate into a hex and get people supporting each other. It’s shit if you’re just in a Sundy telling squads to ghost cap 4 hexes at a time to cut stuff off.
