WoW, Grim Dawn, Don't Starve (Together), Stardew Valley, Terraria, Skyrim, Borderlands

No hard numbers here, but probably Medieval 2: Total War.

Every few months I get the urge to play and log more hours doing a few campaigns.

[–] childOfMagenta@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago
[–] Duallight@lemmy.today 4 points 3 weeks ago

Team Fortress 2 easily. Been playing since 2008. It scratches an itch that no other game can scratch. Ironically though, my second favorite fps game is also TF2 (Titan fall 2)

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

I have a lot of hours of Morrowind and Doom 1&2, as well as Warcraft 2 and Ultima Online, but I dunno the hour count

[–] GhiLA@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

That I know of (3000+): Team Fortress 2

Probably(500+): Super Mario 3, or Apotris

[–] iamdisillusioned@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Stardew Valley and Core Keeper ;)

[–] XenBad@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

My top four on steam are:

  • Garry's mod - 2800 hours
  • CS:GO (CS2 now) - 2100 hours
  • Terraria - 1000 hours
  • Team Fortress 2 - 555 hours
[–] tpyoman@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

DotA2 and possible WoW next.

[–] Wotan@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Elite, the original one, on Commodore 64.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 3 weeks ago

World of Warcraft is the absolute winner in my case. I have no idea on actual numbers, given 99% of my time was in private servers, with a very brief stint on official. Only one of those private servers is still around, with my character from Warlords of Draenor times still there.

Outside that, probably Skyrim (many hours playing pirate versions, modding it with more lethal combat, more lore-friendly armors and "actual" civil war, among other things). I wonder how many hours I've spent on Dwarf Fortress, as I've only played the freeware version, starting with 0.34, before trees had height.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Probably counterstrike back in the day, possibly battlefield 2 including the Project Reality mod. That was back when gametime wasn't really tracked and I had a lot more spare time Possibly WoW, but I only played for a couple of years or less and for a few hours a day at most.

Currently my highest is Forza Horison 5 with like 1200 hours. Have a few others with 500+ hours although a few are inflated at least 100+ hours because the game locked up on closing and counted as played for several days multiple times.

[–] EarMaster@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

According to Steam the top 3 are:

  1. Oxygen not included
  2. Civilization 5
  3. Factorio

But that of course does not include the games not running from Steam and pre-Steam games. So World of Warcraft is somewhere in there too. And the final Top 1 must be Transport Tycoon Deluxe (even if you don't include OpenTTD).

[–] Varyag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

As much as Monster Hunter is my favorite series of all time, and I have about 1600 hours combined total over several games, it's still not caught up to my total of over 2000 hours in Warframe. Love that game to bits but yeah I think I played it enough.

Most other games I play, that I played a lot, hover between 100 and 300 hours each.

World of Warcraft - over 11k hrs

Guild Wars 2 - over 5k hrs

Warframe - 2200 hrs

Minecraft - who knows... a lot

[–] joe_archer@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

DayZ, I have around 3000 hours in it.

[–] Bruncvik@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Civilisation, the original one. Got it in the 90s, and none of my computers was without it. Even now I sometimes launch it for a guick, half-day game.

I'm sure other Microprose games from that era, in particular UFO: Enemy Unknown, are on my top 10 most played games.

From modern games, I probably spent the most time playing Civ4 and Heroes of Might and Magic 3.

I'm a bit ashamed of it, but Overwatch, I really enjoyed the multiplayer and played with some cool people I met in game. Stopped playing when OW2 released.

My second most played game is Destiny 2.

Maybe something is wrong with me...

[–] simonced@lemmy.one 3 points 3 weeks ago

My most played game is hands down: Borderlands 2.
995h in it!

[–] remon@ani.social 3 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Probably still World of Warcraft. When I quite around 2010, I had close to 700 days /played time on my main, and another 400 days between various alts.

[–] slugworth@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Definitely WoW for me back in the day too, in the 400 day range across my main and alts. These days No Man’s Sky in the 400 hour category. Things change when you become a parent, but I still try to find time to play games.

[–] remon@ani.social 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Yeah, the amount of time you had as a student sure was amazing. These days it's more like a few hours a month.

Sadly as I get older I game less hours, so most of my games on this list are older. LoL, wow, Dota 2, modern warfare 2 (2009), Wingspan(online boardgame), PubG battlegrounds, counter strike 2, terraria. I haven't played fps, wow, or dota for years, but they still dominate this list. It's funny because if I made a list of my favorite games, it would include almost none of these, except terraria.

[–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

WoW, CS 1.6, Warframe, and ARK

I think something like 5k hours into Warframe, 15 years into WoW (at least 2 of my characters have 1+ year of playtime--so 17k hours just on those 2; and I max-leveled every class of character up until Battle for Azeroth) and so far, 2 years into ARK. Just over 3.5k hours of playtime between ASE and ASA.

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

When I played on PC more EverQuest, counterstrike, TF2, wow, Skyrim

After playing more on console ff14, elder scrolls online, pillars of eternity 1/2, and souls games (ds2, ds3, bloodborne, elden Ring)

I also like to play Indies and smaller games but those are the ones I keep going back to

[–] ramsgrl909@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

I put the most hours into Awesomenauts during college... really miss games that time

[–] RampageDon@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

The Binding of Isaac

[–] NeryK@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Guild Wars 2 has been my theme park MMORPG of choice on and off for the last 12 years, with >2500h. I have also spent ~1000h on Elite Dangerous.

[–] LewZephyr@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

7 Days to die. 1600 hrs on steam Call of Duty. 1200 hrs on steam

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

steam says I played Fallout 4 for 436 hours, but that seems very high. not sure if that count is accurate.

[–] jedibob5@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

The most that I have proof of is Europa Universalis IV at a little over 1k hours, but I wouldn't be surprised if my time on Guitar Hero 3 in high school surpassed that by quite a bit. I played a lot of Guitar Hero in high school...

[–] Shieldtoad@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Old School RuneScape, Gran Turismo 5 & 7, The Crew 1, 2 & Motorfest and I think Midtown Madness 1 & 2 are also high on my list of most played games.

[–] Coskii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

In no particular order:

  • Ragnarok online
  • Darkspace
  • Monster hunter (multiple games)
  • Dj max (multiple games)
  • Garry's Mod
  • Aliens VS predators 2 (1998)
  • Halo
  • Warframe Phantasy star online (and 2) Path of Exile Morrowind probably.

I have few hundred hours in Minecraft. And probably something like 180h in Witcher 3 GOTY. Recently I 100% Yakuza 5 with 120h on the counter, and it was (mostly) fun, because game is packed with many different minigames, so it wasn't repetetive.

[–] bundes_sheep@lemmy.one 2 points 2 weeks ago

Skyrim and Satisfactory.

[–] Blxter@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago

I have over 3K hours on rust on PC. If I include all the hours on Xbox when I was younger it would most likely be either destiny 1+2 or Rianbow Six Siege but Im not sure how to find all that info since alot of R6 was on Smurfs

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

Maplestory and Warcraft 3 almost certainly hold the first two places from an age gone by, but I don't have numbers for those.

For games that I do have numbers for, Anno 1800, Stardew, and Total War Warhammer (especially if you combine the trilogy).

[–] KillerTofu@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Elden Ring and StarCraft2

[–] erin@social.sidh.bzh 2 points 3 weeks ago

Star Citizen (no joke, I have put more than 2000h in the Alpha...). But because some people may say Star Citizen is not a game (I'm not agree with that statement), the second game I have played the most is warframe (1500h)

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 2 points 3 weeks ago

One of the Paradox strategy games by a comfortable margin. It'll be one of the Crusader Kings or Victoria games. I've got a weekly game night with a couple of friends that was originally just CK, but has for a while now been working extremely slowly through a megacampaign. You can take the end of Crusader Kings and make it into a mod for the start of Europa Universalis, then repeat the process into Victoria and then Hearts of Iron. You need to set some rules for yourselves, because an experienced player doesn't need even a third of the CK timeline to demolish all AI threats, but the games are already good roleplaying fodder anyway so you can set rules that play into that. We're currently about three quarters of the way through Victoria

Outside of those, Noita or Deep Rock Galactic. For a while, those plus a podcast were my go-to "zone out brain off" relaxation, so the hours racked up

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

XCOM: War of the Chosen

Overwatch (gave up on blizzard a couple of years ago though)

[–] not_that_guy05@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Civ all games and Apex legends with like 6k or more hours.

Apex is from day 1 launch day.

I would love to know for sure. I've put hundreds of hours into Final Fantasy 8, Final Fantasy X, Morrowind, and probably Halo: Reach too.
