Just as the title says.

My most played game of all time is Garry's mod with over 240 hours. Close runner up is Fallout new Vegas with 234 hours

My most time spent in a single franchise is easily Fallout. Nothing even compares

Fallout 3: 115 Hours
Fallout New Vegas: 220 Hours
Fallout 4: 71 Hours

Grand total: 406 hours of Fallout

Runner up is Age of Empires series aiming at about 300-ish hours

Easyly Warthunder alongside Armoured warfare, them first i have some 700+ hours on. Spread over a few years that is. Armoured warfare i have some 280 hours on.

Most played game is Skyrim, judging from how many playthroughs I've done, from Xbox 360 to PC.

Mount and Blade Warband is up there with hours as well, 353 of them.

The Dawn of War franchise has seen the most playtime thrown together, however, with 545 hours split between the games. I suppose that's what happens when you have free time between schoolwork with friends readily available.

Most played game is Battlefield 4 with 500 hours put in, though I reckon my time on Smash Bros. Melee and Counter Strike probably come close.

Probably Second Life

On my steam, my mostplayed game is Left 4 Dead 2, with 685 hours, but I have not played it in years.

If you combine all my From Software games (Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2 and Bloodborne) you probably have 300-400 hours.

Most played game is probably either Dragon Quest IX for DS or Battlefield 3 for Xbox 360' but I am not sure about my most played franchise.

I've put 514 hours into Payday 2, followed by 197 hours into Fallout New Vegas and 131 hours into Borderlands 2.

Before I quit WoW, probably that. Something like 50-60 days.

After? Xcom, 320 hours.
Diablo 3 with a close second of maybe 200-ish.
TF2 with a distant third at 150ish

Fallout3
Borderlands1
Borderlands2
Battlefield2142
Fallout2
Fallout1

I don't care to estimate the number of hours, but I reckon it's a close run thing between Skyrim (for obvious reasons. So much to do, and when you've done it all, go back and do it all differently. Rinse and repeat), Star Wars Battlefront 2 (it's been out for 10 years, I still played it reasonably regularly until the new one came out) and maybe Halo as a whole between 1-5, Reach, ODST and Wars, campaign and multiplayer.

Franchise, probably Halo, unless you can lump all the various Star Wars games together, then them,

Franchise, Pokemon. Though the last few have left me cold and I've not done above bare minimum.
Title, Okami. Easily 300hrs.

Yee guys have nothing on us MMO heads.
Looking at 250 days played across all characters on Warcraft. Thats not mentioning conan, warhammer online, aoin and star wars online

Franchise is an interesting one. Definitely a battle between Eldar Scroll and Battlefield series there. Probably 250 hours on TES, unsure of BF being honest.
Shout out to SF2 on the SNES too. Many many a teenage hour sunk into that!

On steam it's Crusader Kings 2, at... over 1000 hours. To be fair, I was heavy into modding it for a while, which requires a lot of letting it run to see if various things work right (they never do)

Outsideof steam? Dwarf Fortress. I have no idea what the would actually be, but I've been playing it in all sorts of ways since 2008.

For ones that I know how long, I'd say Tf2, with around 120 hours.
After that is Mount and Blade: Warband, which has 67 hours into it.

I don't know how long I was playing Civilization IV for, but it would likely be more than 100 hours. I've been playing it since I was 9.

HOW ON EARTH... How can you have spent nearly a YEAR OF YOU LIFE on 1 game? I shall never understand. You sir, have WAY too much free time

Been awhile since we've done one of these.


Ark - 1100
Rift - 1085
Total War Franchise - 786 between Empire, Shogun 2, Rome 2 and Attila - probably more than double that if you take into account my non steam playtime in earlier games
M&B Warband 645 + 139 in regular M&B and 2 in With Fire and Sword
Skyrim 503 - probably a couple hundred at least each into Oblivion, Morrowind, and Daggerfall .
Civilization Series - 349 on Steam, but no idea how much aside from that. Probably have more hours in this franchise than any other considering my obsessive playing of Civ 2 as a youngster
Dragon Age Franchise 276 on Steam, probably three or four times that for the franchise. Stupid Origin.

Oh snap, and I forgot about Alpha Centauri, that probably adds another 500+ hours onto the Civ series.


Sleep is for the weak.


God, the worst part is that all those hours into Ark - six months. I really like dinosaur survival games apparently.

Civilization 4 and 5. Must have clocked insane ammounts off hours on it given mods and whatnot.

Other then that I guess I've put quite a bit of time in leauge of legends (including "quitting" three times).

My most played on steam (discounting stuff that runs in the background) is TF2 at 900ish hours but I haven't really played that in ages. The all time record which will never be beaten would be Dark Age of Camelot although I have no idea what the actual hour count would be ( a lot...).
Franchise wise mine would probably be Red Orchestra.

Dawn of War and Souls series probably have the most game time although I did spend hours on Herzog Zwei and Final Fantasy VII back in the day. I have no idea of specific hours though sorry. FF7 was around 100 though from what I recall.

Well, I have over 1000 hours in Civ 5 according to Steam.

However, that would probably be beaten by Mechwarrior Online, but I don't have a count on how many hours I've played that.

As far as franchises go, again, it would be a toss up between Civilization and Mechwarrior. Been playing Civ since the original, and Mechwarrior since Mechwarrior 2.

2369h of Dota 2

Are you 10 years old?

Even though I consider myself a person who plays a lot of games, I only have 450 hours in CS: GO, and around 350 in Mount and Blade.

That's like... 20 finished games? Whoa!

On Steam it's TF2 with 220 hours in, but I've got a lot more in Battlefield 4 on the Xbox One I believe, and my most played franchise would either be The Elder Scrolls, or Age of Empires.

Everquest. How many hours? I could not even begin to count considering I've played it almost everyday for 16 years.

HOW ON EARTH... How can you have spent nearly a YEAR OF YOU LIFE on 1 game? I shall never understand. You sir, have WAY too much free time

Im still in councelling over it.....

Nah, had some fun times back in the day and met some really great people thru it.

Sid Meier's Civilization III

got be around 400-500 hours

Heh's a Korean living in Ireland, duh

1589 hours on Dota 2. Of course that is only time spent actually playing, not including time spent queueing etc. steam has it at just shy of 5000 hours.

I've got 4-5 days in Smite...
