I've got over a thousand in Space Engineers, although some of that is from leaving it on overnight to refine materials. Or possibly exiting the game, but forgetting to actually leave the main menu. Does Steam track time when the computer is asleep?
But I've likely got close to ten times that number in Dwarf Fortress. I've been playing it off and on for close to a decade and a half now, and when I get into it whole days can just fly by.
Probably Diablo 2 back in the day. No idea how much hours were sunk into that.
I must prelude my statement with two facts of life: I was meant to be an MMO player, and controller is my way of doing it (yes, I know K+M is technically better, bite me)
That out of the way, 3667 hours in FFXIV
OK let's see your transmogs though
CK2 - 400h
Fallout NV (guessing most of this has been TTW) - 190h
Stellaris - 180h
Xcom 2 - 140h
GTA 5 - 99h
Cities Skylines - 95h
Skyrim - 90h
Civ5 - 85h
Xcom - 83h
The other games I've played are pretty much the standard play-through times. (< 70h)
Path of Exile - 1000+ hours
350 hours in FH5
Forza horizon?
Yep
I wish I could filter out idle and clicker games. My biggies are Factorio and KSP for non-idle games. Several thousand hours in each.
For me it's 7 Days to Die, at 1580 hrs.
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.
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?
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:
- Skyrim
- Morrowind
- Fallout (3, NV, 4, London combined)
- Ultima II
- Doom II
- Grim Fandango
I've played a little bit of Warframe...
