      I think I was quite lucky with my games but I would love to be able to spend 1/3 of my life on one game, I usually play a single game a lot for max 1 month and then don’t think about it at all for at least 3 months

        For me I focus on like 2 or 3 games over the course of a couple months usually and some games fall out of the rotation and some games have stuck in

        Right now the silly hyperfixation is playing a ton of Skyrim and planetside

          I am on modded minecraft and a few multiplayer games that depend on others being there right now. I mostly get the most out of games with a clear line of progress when playing single player as it stops me from from wandering to where i get lost and bored of the game

      Dayz and Rust are the only two that broke this mold for me. If Rust still had Linux support I’d be playing it rn. Instead I’m killing pvpers on the coast and forcing freshies to eat the corpse 😅

        My top 5 in hours spent descending would probably be:
        0. Minecraft (Won’t count it since everyone of us has probably played it for many hours)

        1. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky
        2. Every other Pokemon game (+ rom hacks)
        3. Super Mario Sunshine
        4. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat (CoC)
        5. TES Daggerfall (Unity)

        considering which games I found most memorable, there’s probably some games I’ve played more but I forgor 💀.

        Honestly I cannot complain about what I grew up with and still play =3

          Great taste in games!

          My top 5 in descending order

          1. Fallout New Vegas (I had a perfect completion with the courier owning New Vegas every special weapon collected and completed dlc that was lost to my last hdd)
          2. Fallout 3 (Same but I ate the baby)
          3. S.T.A.L.K.E.R Call of Pripyat (Though I probably have as much time in vanilla anomaly at this point)
          4. CounterStrike 1.6 (I kinda hate to admit this)
          5. Team Fortress 2 (Probably more then 50000 hours and I still suck. I took a break after I started team whipping with spy. I played recently and I’m nowhere as good)

          Memory is kind of a lame thing because I’m pretty sure there was a year where I only played Dark Cloud 2 but I’m pretty sure that’s lost to trama

          As awful as the triple a scene has become. Games like Shadows of Doubt and HiFi Rush give me hope that there’s still new fun to be had out there. But yeah the games we grew up with were pretty solid even though New Vegas was a snip and ship.

              If TF2 is at 5. with 5.7 years then OP has spent at least 28.5 years in just their top 5 games that’s actually crazy, congrats OP!

            Have you played Call of Pripyat with Misery? It is so good. I would have to call it my favorite gaming experience of all time. I put a ton of time into Shadow of Chernobyl with mods too. It’s been a long time though, maybe it was Oblivion Lost?
