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?


World of Warcraft with over 11k hours. Guild wars 2 is probably 2nd with over 6k. The highest on Steam is Warframe with 2329.
For WoW and GW2, it’s basically the same reason. I loved MMO games and the huge world you can explore. I found guilds in both that I vibed with, and still talk with some of those folks today.
For Warframe, the gameplay is top notch IMO. I didn’t mind the grind (I was a MMO player, after all) and the selection of warframes and loadouts kept things from getting too stale. I mainly played with one of my friends I met through WoW, and we roped some friends into playing with us from time to time.
I still get the itch from time to time to get into a new MMO to try and relive the experiences I had from previous games, but those days are most likely behind me.
