I discovered today that my most played game on Steam is Astronner with about 500 hours, and my second most played is Surviving Mars with about 500 hours.
How on Earth does one spend 557 hours on Final Fantasy VI? I’ve finished it at least a half-dozen times over the years since it came out, and I doubt I’ve spent that much time with it. And at least one of those sessions I got everyone to max level and taught them every spell in the game. I suppose I have not taught Gau all the possible Rages, but doing that sounds insufferable.
Edit: Are replies broken? This was a reply to a comment, but it showed up as a separate comment.
On steam it’s dota 2 with about 3k hours but really my most played game is the old f2p Combat Arms. I nearly exclusively played that game after school to bed for like 4 years, I probably had over 6000 hours logged. Still talk with the friends I made there a decade later.
World of warcraft. Still true. I only played up through Crusade even. But it ate literally dozens of days of my life. I wouldn’t say I regret that, as it was a learning experience for me. But I would definitely not have played wow if I could go back.
I had over 300 days logged on my main, vanilla through cata.
For me, and I think most people with an obscene amount of time logged - we weren’t there for the game, we were there for the guild. It’s been years since I played, but I’m still in regular contact with some of those people - WAY more so than old friends from school and such.
Those folks were my digital family - I don’t regret those hours for a second.
