    Probably 2k+ hours in EQ1, although i don't play it any longer. Maybe 800 hours in WoW, also don't play it anymore.

    Any game in the Civ series - they are time warps. I start playing, I look up at the clock because I notice I'm hungry and it's 3 days later.

    Factorio is my current Achilles Heel - several hundred hours in that in the past year alone.

    Dragon Age (replayed a few times, for me that is a lot)
    Dark Souls (took me 262 hours to beat the first time)
    Lord of the Rings Online is the only online game I played for a really long time. I played around 4,000 hours I want to say. Obviously there would be a lot of AFK in there but that's my guess.
  • kjempffkjempff Member RarePosts: 1,760
    Eq is #1 by a huge amount (1000+ days /played)

    Diablo 2
    Warcraft 2 & 3
    Might & Magic 1-6, Heroes of Might & Magic 2 & 3, Arcomage
    Dungeon Defenders
    WoW
    Baldurs Gate 2
    The Settlers 2, 3, 4, 6
    Unreal Tournament, Duke Nukem 3D, Doom
    Descent
    Colin McRae Rally 4
    Crash Bandicoot
    Creeper World 1
    Railroad Tycoon 2 gold, Colonization, Civilization 2
    Deus Ex, all of them (August 23, 2016 go go go)


    ...and the really old and the ancient...
    Lemmings
    Emerald Mines
    Sim City
    Bubble Bobble
    Super Mario 30 years ago: deliver newspapers/mow lawns to make money, find a friend whose parents were away for the weekend or not caring, rent a nintendo box saturday morning, rush home, play for 23h 40m straight (take turns sleeping), rush to take the box back, make more money for the next session. And thus were a gamer born.


    ...and a long list of substandard or wannabe mmorpgs...
    Most were not interesting to me because they were: pvp focused (I like pvp in other game types), story driven themepark (good for a rpg but has no place in a mmorpg), lacking longevity & content, superficial (dumbed down), and generally just insignificant when compared to the mighty eq or even the mediocre wow.

    City of Heroes for me. Spent five years on that one. Whenever I wanted a bit of peace and quiet I'd go to the Shadow Shards and fly around there, sometimes took a trip to the Storm Palace just for the scenery!
    lunawisp was my peacebringer in City of Heroes. She lives on, in memory, as my gaming id

    Kerbal Space Program
    The original Warcraft I and II games, not the MMO
    TF2
    Star Wars Galaxies
    Phantasie I II and III (Going way back on these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantasiehttp://
    Command and Conquer (The original and the red alert version)
    Quake
    Falcon 3 (We played over modems and loser had to pay for the call)

    Other than Kerbal, no recent games can hold my interest for very long.  I dont know if it is due to the "been there done that" feeling because of my age and decades of gaming or there are they just cater tot he wrong demographic.

    2. Asheron's Call
    3. Anarchy Online
    4. SWG
    5. Swtor (before f2p mostly. It's dead to me now).
    6. DAoC
    7. CoX and Champions Online likely about equal.
    8. Others

    You stay sassy!

    Morrowind 
    Anarchy Online
    Earth & Beyond.

    Not one game after these three has held my attention like they did.
  • shane242shane242 Member UncommonPosts: 95
    in order of how much time I have played overall (no clue how much of it was "enjoyable");

    WoW
    ROSE Online
    Diablo 2
    Soldier of Fortune 2
    MU Online
    Diablo 3
    World of Tanks
    Path of Exile
    Halo 2
    Rift
    Grim Dawn
    Wildstar

    Anything below that is < 200 hours played


  • TintagilTintagil Member UncommonPosts: 214
    This is an interesting question to me because the answers aren't necessarily the games I've liked the most. However, in terms of hours of enjoyable gameplay my top contenders are UO and WoW. I've been playing both on and off since their respective releases. I have also accumulated hundreds of hours in Terreria over the last couple years, which surprised me because I bought it on a whim. I never realized how much I loved digging holes.
  • WizardryWizardry Member LegendaryPosts: 19,332
    Well i separate them into two categories,single player and grouping.

    Single player without doubt most time spent was in Unreal Tournament.
    Grouping i enjoyed the most FFXI.

    However i have played tons of games i really liked,i still just mess around with very old strategy games like Langrisser 2 and Bandit Kings of Ancient China etc etc.I really liked the Sorcerer King but darn game keeps crashing.I also really like Dishonored and 100% guarantee i will be playing the new one when comes out for many hours.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
