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.
Path of Exile and Counterstrike both are over 1000 hours for me.
Wow around 3k hours, swtor 1.5k, dcs world 2k, counter strike source 1.5k, arma 3 900, space engineers 850 hours and san andreas multiplayer around 700
Rocket League over a thousand, then Crusader Kings III about 600, then CS 1.6 and Monster Hunter World with 400.
CS 1.6 must‘ve started logging those stats after my „prime“ though, I basically played nothing else way back when lol
somehow skyrim still reigns far above all my other games in the sheer number of hours i put into it (1200h), teenage escapism really picked Tamriel as my digital safe space huh, second highest is terraria with 520h
i bet if my time spent across the various versions and mod packs of Minecraft was counted it would surpass both, but alas, no counter for that (though just adding all my wynncraft characters’ time together it’s over 150h)
According to Steam:
I haven’t seriously played any of them over the last year though. RL has been run into the ground by greed. GTA V was always greedy, but was still some fun to fck around in. However it isn’t really relevant anymore. PC2 was replaced for me by Assetto Corsa (5th place, 170 hours) which has great mods and better physics.
Also, this is only Steam. Combining Steam and Uplay numbers, Trackmania 2020 probably takes 2nd place. And LoL may also be top 3 even though I haven’t played in years.
Probably most hours I’ve spend where with Conquer Online back in the days before mysteryboxes where introduced. After that probably puzzle and dragons.
Luckily after those games I learned to question my time spent in these games. (Basically just one day after grinding tower of gods for umpteenth time to spend my 1k stamina/energy, I asked myself wtf am I doing with my life, was I having fun?)
After that my most played games have been Grim dawn, Sacred2, Monster hunter world, No Man sky, Incredible adventures of van helsing then various 2d fighters like Blazblue, undernight inbirth and Granblue fantasy versus that I play on locals.
Uh oh I have 517 hours in Planetside 2. That’s only counting Steam game time, and not using the standalone client before I played on Steam or time spent in the closed beta.
I have almost 1,000 hours in Final Fantasy XIV and I have only finished the main game and first expansion. Although I mainly played before the first expansion came out and got back into it in 2023.
Other games include: World of Tanks Blitz with 755 hours on Steam, not counting mobile; Lord of the Rings Online with 714 on Steam, not counting standalone client before it was on Steam; Elite Dangerous with 687 hours; Star Wars The Old Republic with 572 hours on Steam, not counting the standalone client before it was on Steam; Elden Ring with 360 hours; Mount & Blade Bannerlord with 180 hours.
Honorable mention: The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind on original XBox. I don’t know how many hours I sunk into that, but it was a favorite of mine.
Escape from Tarkov - 2500h Elite Dangerous - 800h Kerbal Space Program - 300h Satisfactory - 250h and still going up ^^
Over 6000 hours on Dota2, I became passionate about the esports scene, only to eventually realize that multiplayer competition have little to do with art.
Dota, 9,000+ hours. I don’t play it anymore though, toxic af
I now mostly play Path of Exile and World of Warships
LIVE FREE IN THE NC
I have but one question.
Do you wear spandex, OP?
Don’t have a number for it since I have it on itch.io, but I’ve put a lot of time into Celeste. Beating everything twice (including b-sides, c-sides, and farewell) took a while, but I’ve also put a bunch of time into the amazing mods it has, like Strawberry Jam and Glyph.
4000hrs in Dayz. No game like Dayz has ever been able to give me the same adrenaline rush, it’s just so intense.
Wurm Online must have been the one I sunk the most time into. Hey! Thanks for reminding me Planetside 2 exists!
On Steam… CS2 + CS:GO is probably at the top. I used to compete in league play. Practice, scrims, and matches and all that.
2nd is CS:S despite my last real session being 12 years ago, but that may be soon toppled by Elden Ring or 7 Days to Die.
Who knows how much time I’ve spent in LoL or WoW but I’m sure it’s in the “several thousand hours” magnitude for each.
Well, I seem to like shooters: Image
but realistically, I have like, many dozens of games with like 30-80 hours played, I’m really into variety gaming.
The only exceptions to this are RuneScape (OSRS and RS2 back in the day), World of Warcraft (I played a ton of Cata until maybe a year before Legion), Starcraft 2, League of Legends, and Osu.
I have over 400 hours on Rust which is just 6 months after playing the first time. But there are players with over 10,000 hours in this game.
EverQuest has about four years sunk into it back in 99. If we’re talking steam, it’s probably TF2 with about 1400 hours
2k in tf2
Best war themed hat simulator on the market
I have like 2500 hours in destiny 2. ☹️
Spelunky 1 and Spelunky 2 by far. 1000+ hours in each I still never got to the Sunken City :-(
Beyond that: Dwarf Fortress, Road Rash/Road Redemption, Oblivion, The Halos (1-3)
No idea what Steam has to say, but I’ve played more games for longer than Steam has been around, so here’s a guess of mine in no particular order:
My games with over 1k hours (approximately):
Skyrim - 5,300
HITMAN - 1,350
Forza Motorsport 6 - 1,200
Other games with > 400 hours: Fallout 4 (mostly modding), Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Oblivion, all the Bungie Halo games, Red Dead Redemption 2, Battlefield 4, Minecraft, Dark Souls III, Elden Ring
Holy shit a hitman fan! I’ve played all the games in the series since the original. Only one I haven’t purchased is 3 since they got really shitty with DLCs and garbage. Amazing games for replayability though.
Some of my all-time favourite games. When Hitman 2016 came out I used to do silent assassin suit-only speedruns of Sapienza, honestly one of my favourite challenges to do since I usually suck at video games. No idea how I got good at that one very specific challenge, but being good at something feels pretty good! I estimate 75% of my playtime is probably in just Sapienza. I also really liked Hokkaido too. The patient zero mission on that map was one of my favourites.
If you get the chance to pick up Hitman 3 on sale I’d recommend it still. The regular levels are all great. I agree that the DLCs and stuff were annoying, but I still got them anyway and don’t regret it. More content for Hitman will always be a plus with me. I won’t buy the cosmetic stuff though, that’s not worth the money to me.
I used to have about 4000 hours logged in tf2 and counter strike source, but they dropped thier playtime database at some point since then 😅 so now my top one is rocket league at around 600 hours
Probably either Left4Dead 2 or the latest Hitman game
L4D2 still going strong?? I try to hop on casually but always get shit servers. Used to play a ton.
I haven’t played it in awhile. But last time I did, it still seemed to be doing good on the custom maps I used to play. Like Helms Deep.
In roughly chronological order: Doom (who knows how many hours), Quake\Quake Team Fortress Mod (countless hours), Diablo\Diablo 2 (countless hours), Quake 2 (hundreds of hours), Quake 3 (thousands of hours), CounterStrike Mod (thousands of hours), Day of Defeat Mod, CS 1.6, Team Fortress Classic, Team Fortress 2 (thousands of hours), World of Warcraft (years of play time), ARK: Survival Evolved (1000+), Day Z mod (1000+), Day Z (standalone, 1000+) 35 years of gaming… I’m sure I’m missing stuff, I’m not even including consoles.
Stardew Valley: 421 Soace Rangers HD: 375 Cities Skylines: 363
Felt like more at the time, for all three. Guess I didn’t used to game as much as I do now. I’ve owned X4 for two weeks and I’m at 107 hours, so it’s on pace to smash those numbers.
Blockland… played a lot, for years. Before Minecraft, before it came to steam. It turned me onto Tribes.
Me when they take out mesh naps, kill return to blockland, and then abandon the game…

I also have like 150 hours in PlanetSide 2. But it’s because I left it running one day on accident and it counted all the extra hours as “playing”
