I’m curious what game you guys have sunk the most hours into. Mine has to be RuneScape, I don’t know the total hours because I’ve had so many accounts over the years I don’t even remember half my passwords, but it’s definitely in the thousands of hours now. I’ve played on/off RS2, OSRS, and RS3 since 2004.
I’ve also probably sunk anywhere from hundreds to 1000+ hours into Skyrim and Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura, though I don’t know the counts there either since neither were through Steam. Embarrassingly enough I’ve never completed either of those two games - I get sidetracked making so many alt characters.
What about you guys? & What got you hooked on said game?
GTA Online is my most-played game according to Steam, but that time is largely skewed from how rough the game was upon its original launch. Rather than put up with nearly hour-long loading times whenever I wanted to play, I used to simply leave the game running overnight. And as a result, I’ve got a few thousand hours in that game.
Project Zomboid is a distant second according to playtime, currently around 900 hours, but I think I’m catching up to it in terms of time I’ve spent actually playing the game.
Something about sandboxes with cars and guns that just scratches a certain itch for me.
I’ve also got at least a few hundred hours on iRacing, but because I haven’t linked that to my Steam account, I don’t know the exact amount of time. And I’m not going to look back through my race history to add up every minute of virtual track time.
