One of my 80's on WoW has like 74 days of play time on it. Since I dont play very many other games, and the fact that I have no other high level characters, all the time adds up. Though I do have quite some time on the Age Of Empires trilogy.
Since you mine and use professions to get both money and skills, if you're the type that likes to just jump right into the action it probably isnt for you. (Most MMO's probably arent either)
IMO, if you enjoy the whole idea of being in space piloting a ship, etc, etc, you might be able to get past the whole "this game is a second job" feeling that some people get.

Sure, because the 50 or so people saying "Oblivion" instead is a lot less boring, just because its a different game?WrongSprite said:
he indeed has a point (and we all laughed about the vid because it is sooo true), it can be excel in space, and the beginning is very tough (we got better tutorials in the recent expansion), but considering he isn't very into the multiplayer aspect of a game (and eve being an mmog makes it just that) it is to be expected he doesn't like it.Xeverick said:
The whole game is basically player driven (whole economy is playerdriven except for some stuff npcs sell), there are huge battles between literally houndreds, even thousands of players (biggest count was at about 1500-2000 in one single system, which actually was still playable). The whole game is single-sharded, the pvp is adrenaline producing. But the whole game is hit or miss (with "hit" being a coin at 2km and "miss" the enviroment around it).
If you want to try it, throw me a PM and I can give you help.
Since I do not play MMOs, I have to say that all Jrps I have played take me at least 100 hours to complete.
WoW would be my biggest one (if I was allowed to include it) but next would be SSX Tricky - All Gold medals and Uber boards on every character. Then lost my save data when our house was robbed, and did most of it again.
Others would be Jet Force Gemini, Banjo Tooie (played through both several times) and Heroes of Might and Magic 2 and Worms 2 (both of which I spent many, many childhood hours playing hotseat games of with friends and family)

I did play Final Fantasy Eight from start to finish. So that's what, 10 000 hours right there?
Other than that; Mass Effect, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Super Mario Brothers on Gameboy Colour, and Way of the Samurai 3 top my list (but Samurai is a DISTANT fifth).

Tales of Symphonia... can't believe how much I played that game, it's not even funny.
I mean I did the midlife crisis title! That was dire!
(Summer 2004 was loooong)
Oh and replayed it to get all the relationship paths. Kratos was my favorite. Certain annoying People died.

Fallout 3 and Oblivion have in total taken away 600 hours of my life, and i still haven't found all the stuff in oblivion yet.
Rome Total War, Sonic 3, and Doom 2. Quake 3 and Soldat are notable mentions, along with any Dynasty Warriors.
