Timberborn. 4,677 hours. I enjoy my beavers.
What games have you put the most hours into?

League of legends, Counter Strike and Warcraft 3 custom maps are waaaay up there.
Factorio is catching up though
Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 months ago
TF2, Diablo II, and Ragnarok Online. 1k-2k+ hours each.
Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 months ago
World of Warcraft and then Final Fantasy XIV.
And it’s not even close.
frankwilco@lemm.ee 5 months 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 5 months 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

I’m approaching a thousand hours in Elite Dangerous. Quoting myself from a week or two ago:
It’s different to most other games, by not being goal-oriented except for the goals you set for yourself. No main quest line dictating progress. No mandatory tasks. No win condition. Instead, it drops you into a simulation of our entire galaxy roughly 1300 years in the future, where humanity has mastered hyperspace travel and spread through hundreds of star systems.
(To give an idea of the simulation’s scope: Around 85 million systems have been recorded by players so far, and those are a vanishingly small fraction of what’s out there. Space is big.)
I like that it offers a variety of activities to fit whatever mood I might be in on a given day. I can hunt pirates, mine asteroids, engage in a bit of piracy myself, find and collect bio samples, infiltrate rival settlements, venture into vast unexplored areas of space, discover Earth-like worlds that nobody has ever encountered before, defend humanity against hostile forces, photograph beautiful stellar phenomena, rescue stranded survivors, customize and finely tune my ship to perform beyond its original specs, team up with friends, pledge to a political power and expand their influence, or chill out as a space trucker and haul cargo to earn enough money for my next upgrade. It can occupy all my attention, or just be relaxing entertainment while I listen to music or an audiobook.
It’s an MMO in the sense of having a large game world (galaxy) shared by all players in real time, but PvP is optional. One mode exposes you to other players, while another limits you to NPC encounters. You can switch between them at will.
One warning: A space ship has more than a few controls to learn, and they’re better suited to a game controller or HOTAS than a keyboard and mouse. I use button combinations for almost everything beyond basic flight controls, since there aren’t enough buttons on a controller for everything.

surph_ninja@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Same, but my hours are definitely boosted by the times I’ve fallen asleep at the yoke.
simonced@lemmy.one 5 months ago
My most played game is hands down: Borderlands 2.
995h in it!edgemaster72@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Final Fantasy XI. Something like 400-500 days, so roughly 10k hours. Though I haven’t seriously played since 2011.
Bruncvik@lemmy.world 5 months ago
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.
steeznson@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I enjoy how old your picks are for the more modern games too! HoMM3 is a stone cold classic.
villainy@lemmy.world 5 months ago
The X3 games (Reunion/Terran Conflict/Albion Prelude) would be one game with DLC today, combined they’re my only 1000hr+ game. X4 is one game with DLC and is well on it’s way to that record.
jedibob5@lemmy.world 5 months 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…
dwindling7373@feddit.it 5 months ago
I’m not sure if it’s wow or League.
I played League for 10 years but in my adult phase, while League was mostly while studying so a lot more hours to burn.
thisisbutaname@discuss.tchncs.de 5 months ago
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.
Disquietus@sopuli.xyz 5 months ago
Skyrim over 2000 hours easily, 400 some into Assassins Creed Odyssey and Ghost Recon Wildlands; I have no idea how many I put into Vindictus, which is an MMORPG I played for more than a decade. For phone games I’ve probably put the most time into the Kingdom Rush series, best TD out there.
rollmagma@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Sigh… Rust
bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 5 months ago
Probably 2048 which is just a fidgeting toy for me.
remon@ani.social 5 months ago
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 5 months ago
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 5 months ago
Yeah, the amount of time you had as a student sure was amazing. These days it’s more like a few hours a months.
dogslayeggs@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Hang on. WoW came out in 2004. So in 6 years you played 3 years in-game? 12 hours a day, every single day for 6 solid years? Were you on disability? Because after sleeping, that doesn’t leave much time for work or school.
remon@ani.social 5 months ago
2 of those years were after I finished school and was just living rent free at home. During that time it was easly more then 12h a day. Though, a lot of that was just being logged in and idle while chatting on teamspeak or doing administrative work for the guild (we ran out own webserver out of a friends house for our forum/dkp system, etc). That’s how I learned programming.
There was also some account sharing, which was literally required to get to the top of the vanialla PvP ranking. Games were built different back then.
Vinny_93@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Rocket League, by far. 1500 hours or so.
Cyanogenmon@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Can’t say that without saying your rank.
Vinny_93@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Champ 2 in 2s currently, it’s pretty much the only thing I play.
Actually I’ve only been playing casual of late, I find the toxicity a bit lower there. You might actually have a couple of decent games with a nice team mate.
But I’ve been playing since it wad kinda new, I was among the ones who had to pay 20 euros just to buy the game on pc. I played it with a DualShock 3 with an XInput wrapper. When I started I didn’t even have a DualShock so I played mouse and keyboard. And I think some of the hours are just having the game open but not playing.
tpyoman@lemmy.world 5 months ago
DotA2 and possible WoW next.
XenBad@lemmy.world 5 months 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
GhiLA@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
That I know of (3000+): Team Fortress 2
Probably(500+): Super Mario 3, or Apotris
bluelion@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
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…
MonkRome@lemmy.world 5 months ago
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.
whotookkarl@lemmy.world 5 months 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
Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Braben & Bells “Elite”. The original one on the C64.
NastyNative@mander.xyz 5 months ago
Arma 3
mrmule@lemmy.world 5 months ago
To expand on this, DayZ, including Arma Mod. Over 1k hours
trslim@pawb.social 5 months ago
Same here. Over 1000 hours and like 80% of it is on Eden Editor.
NastyNative@mander.xyz 5 months ago
I have over 8000 hrs and like 90% is playing asylum. www.twitch.tv/videos/1861972534
That_Devil_Girl@lemmy.ml 5 months ago
I have 3,400 hours in Space Engineers.
About 1,500 hours in FFXIV, 1,400 hours in DayZ, and 1,300 hours in 7 Days To Die.
Then 900 hours in Empyrion Galactic Survival, 500 hours in Baldurs Gate 3, and 300 hours in Fallout 4.
The rest are well below 200.
