Do you count AFK time?
If not, Factorio, with ~500 hours active time.
If so, Clicker Heroes, with 2900 hours, but only about 50 of those were not AFK.

Warframe. The grind sucked me in hard. Was a lot of fun too. I have accumulated 3300 hours.
Eve Online but a lot of it just spent 'station spinning'.. Other than that Arma 3 and Dark Souls 3.
Was a lurker on Reddit, want to contribute more on Lemmy. This seems like a nice easy post to start.
My top 5 starting with most hours:
FWIW ... as someone who's gone from lurking to posting in a few places, and in fact in real life at times ... go for it! ... it's fun and makes the place more fun for you and everyone else!
yeah I can already see myself having a bit more fun with it, and it seems to be a little less toxic here. It is difficult finding existing communities to follow though
WoW by a long shot. Iβm guessing around 10k hours in total. Iβve mostly quit by now due to time constraints, but I recognize that when I do play, I neglect lots of other things.
EVE Online... I have at least a thousand hours in that game. I haven't played in years, but no game since have satisfied the same depth of mechanics and unique community.
Probably Morrowind at this point. Lately I've been doing a new modded save with Ashfall to give a new and ever-present twist to the core gameplay. Can't believe stuff like it still comes out for a game from 2002.
I just hit the max (999 hours, 59 minutes) in yo-kai 3 for 3ds a few days ago.
My top three according to steam are:
Although the game I've played the most over all my years and outside of steam is definitely Deus Ex. I've put a lot of time into it exploring the single player, playing the multiplayer, and messing around with mods since it came out in 2001. The same would go for Unreal Tournament 2004 which I easily had over a thousand hours in back in high school, before steam was a thing.
Easily:
EDIT: First post in a two years-old lurking account. Hello, world!
I haven't played it in a year, but I do have 1928 hours in Europa Universalis IV.
No Man's Sky, easy
Did you start playing at launch or did you pick it up later?
Later, much later. Although I have seen it at launch and was already smitten, I didn't have the hardware for it for the longest time. Only started playing around 2021
I got 12750 hours on my Old School RuneScape ironman, probably another 10000-15000 hours across all my other accounts the past 20 years :P then I have good 5000 hours on CSGO and 2500 in Final Fantasy 14 online.
If we just talk about the last few years:
There is a soft spot in my heart for SuperTuxKart too, despite the current project leadership.
yoo i tried xonotic for the 1st time today, was absolutely epic. also tell me more about the supertuxkart situation?
This is going to sound weird to the Lemmy crowd I'm sure, but Madden NFL 08 on the GameCube/Dolphin
I've got almost 700 hours in osu! but I'm pretty sure I'd have more hours in Super Smash Bros. Melee by now. Hard to say for sure since I can't effectively track it
I jump around games quite a lot and don't generally stick with one for tons of hours -- but I think Stardew Valley with over 200hrs is probably my highest. That game can definitely be addicting.
Itβs a toss-up between Richard Burns Rally and Dirt Rally 2. Iβve played a ton of DR2 over the years but since I started playing RBR in 2004 when it came out, itβs quite possible that all my return visits to it add up to more hours overall stillβ¦
Team Fortress 2, with over 2100 hours logged. More back on the Xbox 360 copy and when it was free during the Mac Update.
Destiny 2, although I played for like a year total and stopped playing in 2020
I have like 137 days in GTA Online and Iβve barely played it in like 2 years
Skyrim. There is a distinct lack of Skyrim in here. I find this odd...
Probably Minecraft or LoL. But it has been a long time since I played them. Nowadays, I mainly just play indie roguelikes.
Enemy Engaged series, I had about 800 on one save game at one point, but I've had many new ones since then.
Quake 3 Arena, uncountable. Possibly thousands.
GTA Online on PS3 about 1000 I think.
Destiny... I dunno but a lot (I have platinum), possibly also over a 1000.
GTA IV, played it through about 10 times so possibly 300-500.
The Sims 4 by a quite substantial margin. It's not what I would call my favourite game. But it is one that I come back to again and again and again.
I can't remember 95% of what I did on EVE Online for the like 3 months I feverously played it, but it's sitting as my highest played game. Though I guess there was a lot of afk mining going on. For actually always active gameplay it's terraria. If I logged minecraft hours, it would probably be up there.
Shoutout to the oddball Graveyard Keeper being in my top 5. It's really not a game with enough content to play 200 hours, but I did it anyways. Finished my...5th? full ending + DLC run a few months ago.
Unreal tournament 99. Probably more than 10,000 hours. I used to play it so so much. Nothing else even comes close
I put in about 2000 matches worth of games in league of legends within about a year when i started playing it at 2014. but since about 2016 i only put in about 500 games at most, kinda quit playing it. Also put in at least like 3k+ hours into world of warcraft, and alot of time into minecraft and around 1k in FFXIV too
Probably RuneScape, then followed by Counter Strike Source.
If you count "how long have you owned it and played it", then it would be Mario 64 DS. Bought it when I was a kid and have replayed it numerous times. Dunno how many hours total that would be.
It's been years now since I last logged in, but Eve Online. Thousands upon thousands of hours warping between gates. Sometimes I miss it, but then I remember the times I would set the alarm clock to get me up in the middle of the night so that I could join in on Corp/Alliance ops and I'm like nope. I enjoy the healthy lifestyle I have now.
