[Xan Krieger]

1. Empire Total War - 609 hours
2. Total War Shogun 2 - 566 hours
3. Total War Rome 2 - 413 hours
4. War Thunder - 317 hours
5. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 162 hours

[TheMigrantSoldier]

Medieval II: Total War - ~500
Mount and Blade: Warband - 348
Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 291
Fallout: New Vegas - 245
Total War: Shogun 2 - 200

This is what mods can do to a man.

 

[infohippie]

Skyrim - 538 hours
The Witcher 3 - 218 hours
Kerbal Space Program - 134 hours

The next two are kinda surprising to me
Dragon Nest - 110 hours (An MMO I don't play any more and really only played for a couple of months.)
Far Cry 3 - 103 hours (That's really surprising, I had no idea I'd spent so long on just two playthroughs.)

 

[FakeSympathy]

1. Skyrim 112hrs
2. ACII 57hrs
3. KOTOR 46hrs
4. Mass Effect 2 40hrs
5. L4D2 38hrs

Oh shit...umm, you know that terrible survival game craze that happened between 2011-2014? Yeah, I was pretty much all over that. So at least 2 of my most played games were really shitty survival games. Anywho...

1. Grand Theft Auto 5- 199 hours
2. 7 Days to die- 145 hours
3. Infestation: Survival Stories- 127 hours
4. Nether- 105 hours
5. Elder Scrolls Online- 96 hours

To be fair, I have over 400 games on steam and spread my playtime pretty evenly between them. Usually between 12-20 hours on average.

The only other PC game I can think of having more than 100 hours is Overwatch, and I play that everyday for about 2 hours at least, so I assume that will climb pretty quickly.

 

[BarryMcCociner]

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

459 Hours on record

Crusader Kings II

431 Hours on record

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

226 Hours on Record

Mount and Blade: Warband

186 Hours on record

Elite Dangerous

136 Hours on record

Thing is, I know these figures are inaccurate because if you get hours in offline mode, then don't reconnect before you shut down your computer, those hours won't be tallied.

 

[Smithnikov_v1legacy]

Hmmm..

Skyrim-1449 (my wife plays it as much as I do)
Project Zomboid-312
Payday 2-117
Mount and Blade: Warband-92
State of Decay-72

 

[CaitSeith]

Skyrim - 233 hrs
Dark Souls - 221 hrs
Fallout 3 - 179 hrs
Mass Effect - 126 hrs
Portal 2 - 120 hrs

Minecraft - ???? hrs

 

[MrCalavera_v1legacy]

Team Fortress 2 - 652h
Deus Ex: Human Revolution Dir Cut - 132h
Shadowrun: Dragonfall Dir Cut - 114h
Crusader Kings II - 92h
The Binding of Isaac - 86h

Mind you, i have some of my games registered on 2nd account that i used to share with someone, so, for example Fallout New Vegas could easily jump on the podium.
Also, some of my hour counter might be a bit skewed when compared to actual playtime, since i sometimes just let the game process run in the background.

 

[1981]

1. 7 Days to Die - 2349 hours
2. Don't Starve - 196 hours
3. Borderlands 2 - 132 hours
4. Don't Starve Together - 127 hours
5. The Long Dark - 67 hours

Honorable mentions (games I never thought I'd play that long):

9. Reus - 50 hours
10. Plague Inc Evolved - 47 hours

Best newcomer (just got it in a Humble Bundle):

8. Rust - 49 hours in the past 2 weeks

You know I was looking at this and thinking how much time I have spent gaming. It was fun to do, but damn, was it a lot of time.

Lots of strategy here:

Civilization V: 941 hours on record, though I know I have probably over a hundred hours of unrecorded gameplay.
Civilization IV: 574 hours on record
Crusader kings II: 441 hours on record
Europa Universalis IV: 371 hours on record
Xcom: Enemy unknown: 281 hours on record

Other games I've played that have similar hours on record are call of duty: modern warfare 2 on xbox 360 (I can reasonably estimate something like 500-600 hours), pokemon heartgold (somewere around 275 hours) and mass effect 2 (200-300 hours). I have no way of knowing how much time I've put into the various halo games, crysis, minecraft, super smash bros brawl, nor how much I played of robin hood: legend of sherwood, but those games also might have similar amounts of time poured into them.

I have more games on steam that have too much time put into them: FTL (176), supreme commander: forged alliance (120), geometry wars 3 (115), magicka (114), xcom 2 (101) hours. Steam also claims I have played 280 hours of counterstrike but I cannot remember playing more than one or two matches before deciding that it wasn't for me.

And the weird part is, though I like all these games very much, I have games that I have played a lot less, 5-15 hours maybe, that I aldo look on very fondly.

I have a few games that I reflect on fondly till now despite having spent bugger all hours on too. There's little gems like Thomas was Alone. Also you kinda get bugger all out of playing that repeatedly.

Both Risk of Rain and Monaco left a fairly big impression on me and I still think about the good times I had sometimes, even though the hours spent are minuscule compared to my other multiplayer endeavours. The quality of the time spent is better than the hours I spent simply grinding F2P currency or rare drops.

I am very glad that steam didn't record time back when I played CS 1.6, CSS, and Killing Floor. For...shame based reasons.

But...

Killing Floor - 265
Solforge - 303 *
Clicker Heroes - 430 * These 3 are kind of misleading since I let them idle a lot.
Marvel Puzzle Quest - 431 *
Warframe - 1,128

Next 3 to substitute the 'idle' games...

Age of Empires Online (RIP) - 238
Infinity Wars - 206
Binding of Isaac: Rebirth - 191 (Binding of Isaac - 43)



Honourable mentions because of DLC separating it:
Dawn of War 2 + Chaos Rising + Retribution - 313

 

[Zaltys]

Skipping all the games that have inflated hours because I left them running on the background..

Crusader Kings II - 2260
Football Manager 2013 - 1120
Football Manager 2012 - 457
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 361
Mount & Blade: Warband - 165

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

Team Fortress 2 - ~2600 hours
Civilization V - 203 hours
Terraria - 181 hours
Xcom Ufo Defense - 158 hours
Project Zomboid - 85 hours

Team Fortress Classic and Counter-Strike 1.6 are also in my library, but I have no record of their playtime, since all of it predates Steam. If they do count, then by my estimation they have about 5000+ hours and 500 hours respectively.

 

[hermes]

1- Borderlands 2 - 118hs
2- Borderlands The Presequel - 86hs
3- Fallout 4 - 72hs
4- Grim Dawn - 49hs
5- Talos Principle - 46hs

With the realization most of my most played games are not on steam.

 

[gsilver]

Hawken - 118 Hrs - It's a mech game, a glorious one with stompy mechs
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - 99 hours - I know for a fact that I didn't play that much, since when I was playing it, I'd notice that the counter kept counting up for hours after I stopped... but I still sunk a ton of time into it.
Borderlands 2 - 76 hours - I played too much Borderlands.
Borderlands - 69 hours - I *really* played too much Borderlands.
Strike Vector - 68 hours - Lovely transforming jet combat!



//The world needs more big-budget mech games than just Hawken and Mechwarrior Online

 

[Arnoxthe1]

After looking at all these lists, it looks like Team Fortress 2 and Elder Scrolls/Fallout really stole the top places. Well, that and Civilization. Interesting...

 

[FluffehFoxEM]

Team Fortress 2 - 313 hours
Dota 2 - 196 hours
Garry's Mod - 153 hours
Warhammer 40K DOW2 Retribution - 97 hours
CSGO - 96 Hours
