World of warcraft. Still true. I only played up through Crusade even. But it ate literally dozens of days of my life. I wouldn't say I regret that, as it was a learning experience for me. But I would definitely not have played wow if I could go back.
Hard to say for certain but on Xbox it would have to be Halo MCC or The Witcher 3. I also played a lot of World of Warcraft back in the day so thatβs probably up there too.
I'm over 10k hours on FFXIV, been playing since launch. Could get an exact answer when i get home. Next closest is Skyrim with around 1,500.
Edit: it's over 14k hours, more than 584 days worth. It'd be much more if I had more time the last two years but I can't do much than dailies with a 15 month old!
Path of Exile. It literally captures you once you take a grasp on game mechanics and find an interesting character build.
Oh boy, theres a lot to talk about chatacter building.
Theres no ARPG game in the market with such complexity in planning your character. Dopamine hits when you reach your build's peak and while you chase for milestones, like upgrading gear, leveling, bossing, etc. Leagues are breath of fresh air, introducing expansions + new content, also possibility to start a fresh character in fresh ladder & economy.
Playing PoE with pals in a guild and sharing milestones, moments, items & currency, helping each other with progression sucks you even further in.
Its so addictive that I've had to stop playing it, because it takes so much of your time. But I don't regret playing it. Good times.
1200 hours on Halo The Master Chief Collection on steam. And absolutely countless more on Halo Reach on the Xbox 360.
Quake Champions for sure. Best competitive shooter I've ever played (and I've tried all the popular ones), great option if you like movement & aim centric games
Continuum. I have more than 10 thousand hours on my main account, 3 thousand more on alts I do not have access anymore. Most of the time was afk or just being online since it had a chat and very lightweight. You can see top players by usage time on the trenchwars server website.
I would guess I have multiple thousands of hours across the Halo and Pokemon series. My highest played steam game is dead by daylight (gross) at 1k hours. Deep Rock Galactic and PUBG are at around 500.
- RDR2 - 2,225 hours
- MGSV - 1,388 hours
- TW3 - 645 hours
I'm sure SMW is the real 3rd. place, but I don't have the numbers.
EverQuest 1. Diablo 1,2,and 3. Cities skylines. Forgot about terraria.
Breath of the Wild. I put about 300 hours into it.
League of Legends, no doubt (and no idea how many hours across my two main accounts). Just... yikes on a bike, that one.
Other tops probably Sims if I can count all the different games. Stardew and animal crossing are up there as well, I'm sure.
The Elder Scrolls Online
Pokemon Firered. One of my favorite childhood game.
Guild Wars 2; I'm at 6-7k hours or so. Been playing a lot less lately; I'm not sure if that's the recent content, or if it's me getting tired of it. I don't have a ton of objectives I'm interested in completing at this point; some "nice to have"s, but at this point any character or build I could possibly want to play, I have just about everything I need for. Mostly find myself logging in twice a week to do guild night with friends, and that's it.
Otherwise, GTA V, which surprises pretty much everyone I know except the friends I play with. It's just such an easy game to spend hoursblowing each other up or racing around or whatever in; really a fantastic game to play with friends.
Probably Planetside 2, an online MMOFPS game.
Next are probably: (Don't know in which order)
FTL: Faster than Light (with Multiverse Mod)
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim
A small multiplayer game called "Red Crucible 2" (browser based FPS game that runs in Unity Plugin, game's now dead)
GTA V
GTA IV
Note: I don't have the times on these games because I might or might not have "downloaded" some of them outside of official stores... so its just based on how vividly I remember them.
I used to love PS2. Fallen away over the years, but I have fond memories of being in 4 different team speaks at any given time relating messages. It was always a great time.
Iβve noticed a bunch of dev work has been done recently. Is it worth getting back into?
Overall i've spent countless hours in minecraft and csgo for a close second
Recently tho I've been playing a lot of bloons and risk of rain 2. They're both really addictive
Path of Exile, around 3k hours and it is still my favorite. Every 3 months you get to play again with a different twist, and Path of Exile 2 (just an update, but a huge one) is being worked on and will likely release next year.
I don't know how much time I've spent in Minecraft, but it's probably over 1000 hours.
Second place certainly goes to LoL. They reset the statistics at some point but my guess is also close to 1000 (at some point I had like 700 and kept playing for a while).
I don't play either of those anymore though.
Ultima Online for sure. Glad the time wasn't tracked...
Either skyrim or oblivion. probably Oblivion. It's the most immersive game world I've encountered. Emminently replayable.
Easily 10k hours throughout the Diablo series.
Over 750 hours in Total War: Warhammer II.
Probably 2,000 or so in Guild Wars 2.
Gtav on ps3 was a blast.
Minecraft. I spent a lot of time on it, especially when playing with friends on my server.
Metin2 my whole childhood. Then Minecraft and Counter Strike
I'd say Final Fantasy XIV, around 4000 hours
Near enough 3000 hours on destiny 2 and g-mod in second with 992 hours. And third is advanced warfare multiplayer woth 699
