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.
For me it’s 7 Days to Die, at 1580 hrs.
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.
350 hours in FH5
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.
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.
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
Rocket League 4,485 hours
I have over 6,000 hours in Dota2.
Dang, I was feeling real smug looking down on these people with my 4134.1 hours.
Me too!
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.
“CYKA BLYAT VODKA VODKA VODKA”

Flashed back to the great war.
Deep Rock Galactic with about 1000 hrs.
Best Co-Op game I’ve ever played with a marvellous community and its own subculture. It has been my absolute favourite game for a couple of years.
Stopped playing though when they introduced the “flappy boots” minigame. I know it’s optional and there are mods to get rid of it, but somehow this has killed the entire game for me. Silly, but can’t help the feeling.
In German I would say “die Luft ist raus” about this. Literally translated: “the air is out” and describes situations where something totally lost its appeal and is now just “meh”, although it was (very) appealing before.
If you haven’t played it before and like co-op shooters: give it a try. You probably won’t regret it.
That’s not very rock and stone of you
I love the expression! Sounds close to “out of steam” in English which is used similarly… nothing underlying has changed but the enthusiasm or “special something” is gone
Solitaire 2: Collectors Edition. 175k hours
lol not even 25 years in the game, what a noob
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…
How is good old Planetside doin?
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.
Last time I played was for the anniversary and I actually found an active outfit. Was nice and more active than I thought
