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.
I believe the game I have the highest number of hours in is League of Legends, but I don’t know the exact amount because at a certain point riot changed their API and the tracking site I used reset. But the highest it was ever at was 2,376 hours. The highest games I currently can still track are Skyrim with 789.5 hours and Skyrim legendary edition at 241 hours, then Stardew Valley with 953 hours, Fallout New Vegas with 612 hours, and Final Fantasy 6 with 557 hours(this was one campaign.). Everything after that is sub-500, but I give an honorable mention to Dark Souls 3, at 441 hours.
Minecraft was before Factorio and not sure how many hours. I’m sure a lot more than Factorio and the others were when I was younger and particularly Halo I was the best person around my circle by a mile, like levelling up to 50 with a new account in less than 15 games so I must have played for years m
I'm over 10k hours on FFXIV, been playing since launch. Could get an exact answer when i get home. Next closest is Skyrim with around 1,500.
Edit: it's over 14k hours, more than 584 days worth. It'd be much more if I had more time the last two years but I can't do much than dailies with a 15 month old!
This depends on what you define as in game. According to Steam, I've spent the most time on NGU Idle at 3306 hours, but a large amount of that was spent with the game running while I was asleep or at work. For Steam games with the most hours, I've spent 840 playing Path of Exile but that doesn't include the 200 or so hours playing the standalone client. This is followed up by 440 hours playing Terraria (which doesn't include console version hours), and Realm of the Mad God which I have 325 hours playing.
If we include MMOs in the mix, I've easily clocked 1500 hours playing both World of Warcraft (between Classic and Retail up to and including Mists of Pandaria) and Guild Wars 2 over the years.
Funny enough, I wouldn't include any of these games in a list of my favorite games other then Terraria, so that's good to keep in mind :)
This is actually a good question if I'm answering it entirely based on feels, not actual data.
Biggest game overall, single player plus multiplayer? Halo series. Maybe Destiny 1&2 too.
Biggest PC game? Probably Neverwinter Nights (2002). (This predated Steam, so fuck the statistics anyway.)
Biggest game I'm spending shitloads of time right now? TRAIN SIM WORLD 3.
Must be Civ IV - that whole series makes you lose track of time - start a game and that’s the whole weekend gone; even now Civ IV with the Realism Invictus mod feels like it’s got tonnes of gameplay still left in it for me.
That said, OpenTTD has been an enduring favourite of mine for the past few years and because of its flexibility it might surpass it in the long-term.
Hard to say for certain but on Xbox it would have to be Halo MCC or The Witcher 3. I also played a lot of World of Warcraft back in the day so that’s probably up there too.
