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.

    Almost certainly World of Warcraft. I don’t think I even liked it for most of the time I spent playing it. I’ve been annoyed about the overall direction since basically Cataclysm, and IMO Burning Crusade laid the foundations for most of my major complaints, although I didn’t realize it at the time. I have decided that I’m opposed to the “expansions add a new tier of everything that invalidates old content” model of expanding games. If creating diverse content that is still enjoyable at level 60 is too hard, then maybe games just don’t need to be expanded indefinitely past their original level caps.

    500 hours is also my sweet spot I think - I don’t think I have any games with significantly more than that. Here are the games I have ~500 hours in (that I can remember off the top of my head):

    Breath of the Wild
    Civ IV
    Dark Souls
    Monster Hunter World
    Skyrim
    Warframe

    If entire series count though, it’s gotta be Civ, by a landslide.

    Its either champions online or star trek online. Played them both for years and by and large did at least minimum grind on the events.

    Absolutely WoW, but Path of Exile behind that with 1900 hours…

    Runescape by a country mile. Spend whole days with that on in the background, grinding away. 15+ years and still play almost every day.

    Over 2k in Rust and Mordhau, but probably Morrowind. I sank some serious time into that on Xbox as a kid.

    Im not sure about total hours…

    But several thousand in WoW. Back during release and for at least 5 years i played like 8 hours per day on avg. I would guess.

    I would estimate 10000 - 12000 hours. Maybe a bit more.

    I dont play it anymore though.

    The game i have most time played on, on steam, would be Gfim Dawn. That game is amazing.

    World of Warcraft. Estimate around 15 000 hours.

    League of Legends. A tough one to estimate. Maybe around 3 000.

    Then its Diablo 2 or Warcraft 3. No idea which one is left outside of my top 3 tbh.

    According to Steam it’s Left4Dead. That said, Steam only began tracking use in 2009. Not only do I expect my Left4Dead hours to be much higher as I played that mainly at launch in 2008, but I also think that game would be a distant second to Counterstrike Source which I played heavily around release while I was in university.
