Most hours played in a game!

I have 2300 hours in CS:S. I would guess I have twice that or more in Enemy Territory - I played that 30 hours straight once and permanently damaged some nerves in my hand. Stupid...
 
In Steam my most hours recorded is with CS:GO at 2671 hours played. But I have many other titles that were not recorded, like CS:S was initially without measuring your playtime.

On Dark Souls I have 2 charakters that I grinded up to NGXX+ and I have 400 and 600 hours on those not counting my side characters. I also played a lot of Diablo II, WoW from classic up to Cataclysm and many many hours went to Guild Wars and Battlefield Bad Company 2. So I´m not sure if CS:GO is actually the title I played the most...

It's about 2000 hours I think because I also played a lot steam offline, steam only counts the hours when you have internet connection.
 
If there was a way to determine the amount of time I spent in Duke Nukem 3d, and Quake 2 ground zero, it would be amazing.

I played these 4-8 hours a day from 1996 to 2004, with extreme sessions intermixed, lol.

We had 3-4 players locally, with our fun times being jumping into other's servers, until they decided we were cheating, and kicked us out.

We never loaded a cheat; that's for losers. I've still never loaded a cheat, that wasn't part of the game. We use cheat's now for Q2 to improve play, in our lan games.
(Give all on load, then a give all for each kill; makes for a rocking game)

We still have gaming weekend lan parties where we play those games for 10-12 hours at a time.

Got to be careful there my friend! Most people can't handle long times being awake, only a few can or people that do certain things or get there bodies used to being awake long periods can handle such situations! Please be careful when not sleeping, Even though COD has a lovely campaign :)

with at least 40% of that time spent in loading screens :laugh:

GTA 5's loading screens are pathetic, especially in 2019.. Heck, I've got the game on an SSD (Samsung 850 pro) and it still takes forever!
 
I know for certain that I've played Tomb Raider II more than any other game I own, but it's impossible to put a figure on it. If I were to hazard a guess, it would be around 1000 hours, closely followed by Half-Life and it's various sequels/remakes. Many of the games I have on Steam I've played outside it, like when Black Mesa was free.
Also, I'm not sure how accurate Steam's figures are, what with so many different PC builds and reinstalls since 2004, when Steam was born.
This graphic is very misleading, actually. Besides, I usually take months, if not years to finish some games and I never do multiplayer due to the w**kers online.

Some games you really can't play online because of those people in my person view such a game would be "CSGO"
 
I guess its time for a little update

New Steam UI I hate your guts btw... why does everything have to be so BIG

This one surprised me quite a bit just now. I reckon I can add some more at some point, still haven't seen it all.

But right now I find most of my playtime is happening outside of Steam's library. Lots of GOG / no DRM stuff, lots of Apex Legends, and now Fallout 76 which, I have to say, is actually not shit anymore and I can totally see myself quadrupling the current playtime (which is around 40 hours).
 
Apparently Borderlands 2 which is fine by me because 2nd was TDU2 which was terrIble and most of my time “playing” was at the Casino...

1. Civilization II at least 9000 hours I didn't have friends in middle or high school.

2. Counter Strike Source - 6813hrs

3. Civilization V - 3589 hours

4. Wow - around 3000 hours by memory

5. Cities Skylines - 1633 hours
 
Managed to rake in over 500 hours in Apex Legends. Didn't even realize I played it that much.

The only game i ever played over 300h i think.

 
Actually I play Skyrim for 8 years now and everyday when u I got home I would get on the game and I would start a new game when I was bored but when mods came in I stared to play it more and more
 
For Steam games (idle games excluded), FF IV has the no. 1 spot.

1586655709042.png


Overall Final Fantasy games have too the top spot, been a fan of the series for over 20 years and I've spent hundreds, if not thousands of hours playing FF games on consoles before they've ported to Steam in recent years. Also I played Diablo II & Heroes III hella lot as a teen.
 
From 2002 to 2020, Magic the Gathering online clients (Arena being the most recent one) easily get top spot for me. Followed by World of Warcraft, followed by FFXIV. lol
 
Rocket League is by far on top at 779 hours, followed by The Witcher 3 at 224 (guess that shows just how much of a completionist I can be), Fallout 4 (197), Divinity: Original Sin (147), Skyrim (130), and 121 hours in Dragon Age: Inquisition. The original Half-Life and it's various remakes (HL: Source and Black Mesa) is probably up there though; I must have played the original ten times back in the day, played through HL: S when it launched, played Black Mesa when it soft-launched with no Xen, and just finished the final version (holy [bleep], that reimagning of Xen! Best level designs I've seen in quite a while!) last week. Also probably at around 100 hours in BotW right now. A lot of hours of CS back in the 1.6 (and earlier) days, a bit of CS:S too, and I think I've launched CS:GO a grand total of one time.



Btw, isn't it rather odd for a mod to call out people for "making things personal" when all they do is say that with 24 hours in a day, the OP's reported play times are impossible? (Or was there a thread cleanup despite the mod saying it was pointless?) I don't judge anyone's choice of pastimes or how they live their lives - none of my business, after all - but claiming play times significantly exceeding 24 hours a day for more than 8 years straight? Yeah, that's just not possible. Games like these require more attention than it's possible to share between two simultaneous games or whatever might be done to inflate numbers like that. I don't care why the OP said so or how they might have arrived at those numbers, but they're nonetheless impossible.
 
I don't keep track, but I've spent at least 3 years playing Diablo II few times a week, for probably 3-4h. That had to be around 2000h. I was a teenager, I had time.
In last decade:
Steam says 321h in Skyrim.
Probably slightly more in Oblivion and Morrowind.

I have to say... some of the figures I see here are just hard to grasp. I honestly envy people who are able to allocate so much time to a hobby (assuming we're all amateurs here).
Slandering other users, and not knowing there lives if pretty pathetic,
No, it's not. It's giving opinions based on best of knowledge. No other way.

Personally, I really don't care that you spend all your free time gaming. It's not the most productive hobby, but it's far from the worst as well.
If you said you're cooking, painting or solving math problems for days non stop, it would still look rather awful and extremely unhealthy.

Also, you've clearly created this thread to brag about how much you game and how much you're able to spend in front of your PC without sleeping.
So I assume you wanted some feedback from a wide audience. Otherwise you'd tell this to a friend or write it down on a napkin.
You don't like the feedback? That's your problem.

Wait, what? For the VR version alone? Holy balls, you must be entirely acclimated to VR by now at least. Do you ever get sick? Also, you're making sure you're getting your money's worth from that headset! I'm impressed.
