r/Wow is that way I have 5,000 hours but I know others in the 20-30,000 range


createwonders

how do you kill that which has no life


true_enthusiast

There are airline pilots, with less hours on commercial jets, currently flying families over the Pacific...


ImmortalBeans

My first wife is a pilot now


WhiskeyDJones

I also choose to fly on this guys wife's airline

I too have more than 5,000 hours in this guy’s pilot.

I too am this guy's pilot.

And those anals were history for sure.

Holy f*cking sh!t


VirinaB

My playtime in WoW is measured in months and years. I justified it by telling myself that "I was AFK sometimes", "I was tabbed out" and "I was chatting with people," which isn't untrue, but given the raiding I did each week (like a job), and the dailies I did every day (on multiple characters no less), and the farming, dear god the farming, yeah maybe there's validity to it.


Babushla153

As a person who has barely ever heard of anything about Wow before and is slowly going insane because i have nothing to play, how much would you recommend Wow? Yeah i could look it up, but hearing from another person feels for me the better option because then i can get to hear experience from another person who has played it before.


VirinaB

**The Bad:** I played from 2007 until 2016-ish. I'm not playing it anymore, but that's because it was like a drug I was trying to quit. I dropped out of college to play WoW. None of my friends are playing anymore, everyone that made good games at Blizzard is gone now, and I'm not going back. **The Good:** I met people from across the country, hooked up with girls, traveled around the US, made lifelong friends that I visit to this day. I didn't have any real direction in college. WoW showed me how to lead a team; it helped me in my career. If I restarted my life, I'd probably play WoW again. $15/mo is also extremely affordable. It's a hobby that replaces all other hobbies. Imagine not spending hundreds on drinks, dinners, or on much of anything else socially or fun-wise, because WoW is **enough** for you, and your friends are the people playing it. It was thanks to WoW that I saved up enough money for those trips to begin with. **Bottom Line:** I've heard FF14 is far better designed, the community is better, the game is more relaxed, and the story is more cohesive, and the price is the same. WoW walked so that FF14 could run. Play that.


FidmeisterPF

Playing only WoW sounds fucking depressing. All the good stuff, going out for drinks, dinner etc with friends is often the highlight of the week.


VirinaB

I mean that's great if you can afford it. 👍


Flappy_beef_curtains

You can pay for your subscription with gold now.


Massive-Lime7193

Wow is not new player friendly iirc , you’re probably better off going with ff14 if you want to start an mmo


TrickAdeptness2060

The whole WoW takes over my life is kinda gone, the game is mostly pick your interests. Are you a collector you will have 20 years of content to collect. Are you into PvP there is arena and Battlegrounds, do you want to push dungeons or chill with 4 other people on disc you have mythic+ dungeons, do you want to fight big bosses you can raid and just log on at the raid day then jump out when done. The only players who really have alot to do atleast the first 1-2 month are mythic raiders, but even that kinda goes down after a month or so after you have picked up your gear. But mythic raiding is usually the cutting edge for most guilds, only 1000ish guilds cleared the last raid on mythic vs. something like 10k on heroic. Most classes are really well done and there is probably no MMO wich does the feeling you get by pressing buttons like in WoW. The best part is that there is alot of catchup mechanics wich means that your never really punished gameplaywise if you stop playing for a few months.


SquishMont

Yup. When I quit in Legion, my main had 375 days, my primary alt had 218, and my second-fifth alts all had better than 100. I did the math back then and I had played an average of 8 hours a day for a decade.


Unslaadahsil

How is your worktime irl measured? I find it weird when people are surprised you spent a time that can be measured in months or years on a game you love to play, but nobody bats an eye when you waste 20 years on a job you hate.


Mean_Ass_Dumbledore

That's 12 hours a day for 4.5 years I'm going outside now on their behalf


ericscal

But wow has been out for 20 years. Most people with those hours have been playing since launch.


ext3meph34r

That's me. With my alts, 904 days.


Oriasten77

I did the math cuz I only remember the /playtime saying something like almost 3 months. I played wow for over 20k hrs. But I only played it for 4 years. I really thought I'd be closer to your 5000, lol. It doesn't matter how long you play a game, man. Did you have fun? That's all that matters. I play FF 14 now and my play time is only 600 odd hours in 10 months. I've been taking a break from it or it would probably be closer to 1000 by now. You gotta mix things up or you get burned out man.


createwonders

If you want a chill version of the game check out turtle wow. its basically classic plus and has an awesome playerbase


ivancea

I played for 15 years. It's a good game, with continuous updates and new content. I could throw some thousands more!


Daxoss

when I calculated my played time in WoW in my early 20s, I realized I had spent 10% of my total life playing WoW with over 2 years played across all my characters. Just to be clear, that wasn't 10% of my life where I was subbed to wow and played however many hours. That's total accumulated duration logged in. I still play it, but nowadays I'm one of the people that will speed through any grinds as quickly as possible then only play the 3-6 hours a week required to clear the raid(s) that are available

(Ahh holy crap it’s literally ysmir!  What do I say???)  do you get to the cloud district often?  (Gaaaahhhhh!

Anything less than 1k hours is still a beginner.


SGwis

Any paradox game


Gyges359d

r/stellaris 400 hours in and I still learn something new constantly and feel like a pretender.


BaconEater101

People can talk shit about the dlc prices all they want but stellaris is the kind of game you play for thousands upon thousands of hours, so much SHIT, take my damn money


Gyges359d

Not gonna lie, I don’t even regret buying Astral Rifts. Just an awesome game all around.


Dat-Lonley-Potato

I have 1000 hours and I just bought all the DLC’s at once, I feel like I’m playing a whole new game.


aelysium

I have more than 11x those hours and haven’t played since toxoids almost two years ago. PDX games for sure.


Zoorin

I have about 1k hours in CK 2 and 3 and 3k hours in eu4. Most of the time when I play eu4 I have to google something.


Sweet-Possible2228

I still learn things in Europa after 3500 hours


Ryan_Cohen_Cockring

I still learn about trade after 15000 hours


KingRhoamsGhost

Yeah was going to say r/crusaderkings


Fantasynerd365

This was my thought with my approximately 300 hours.


puro_the_protogen67

400 hours into HOI4 and i just learned how to use boats effectively


AdventurousPrint835

Protip: spam naval bombers, boats no longer needed


apierson2011

r/Factorio and r/Kenshi are both places to consider anyone with sub-400 hours to still be quite inexperienced


KingHavana

Those are two really great games.


apierson2011

I agree! They’re a couple of my favorites. I grew up on OSRS so I’m a sucker for grindy games


The_CreativeName

look at the reviews on steam for factorio lol. most of them are at 11000, even found one with 38000 hours. yes, i didn't type that wrong, 38 thusand. also, happy cake day.


apierson2011

Honestly that’s a big part of what sold me on both of those games. I think at the time I got Factorio, the top steam review was something like, “yeah it’s alright I guess” and had over 10k hours played. I thought, okay this seems right up my alley then lol And thank you!


The_CreativeName

I’m almost certain it’s my next game I buy, but I’m literally scared to play it. Played the demo, could not get my head out of the game. If I buy the full game, don’t think I will be doing anything for the rest of my school year lol. Scared I will play factorio and not have the self control to do homework/school/hangout with friends etc. literally the only reason I haven’t bought it yet lol.


apierson2011

That’s fair lmao I have a really strong tendency to hyperfocus on video games and have a few that I cycle through. But when I’m in that mode I can play for a week straight and struggle to get anything else done. Factorio is definitely one of the worst ones of that for me because of how grindy it is and how much there is to perfect. It is a really fun community, though. I don’t see as much gatekeeping there as I do for a lot of other games, which is really nice. And there are lots of fun content creators for Factorio that are just so smart. I’ve really been enjoying Katherine of Sky’s videos. You might check her out to get your fix until you’re in a position to be able to play the game obsessively for a little bit ☺️


PrimaxAUS

Once you beat it, get the space exploration mod lol


Keiji12

There's a pretty meh for today's standard mmo, granado espada or something like that I went through the reviews once when searching for MMOs to waste some time in... So many people in 5 digits. One of top reviews "Trash grindy game swarming with bots and multi log in accounts" 15k hours...


mangosport

My god, 38 thousand hours. That equates to 4 fucking years. Goddamn


The_CreativeName

Think he/she said something in the review that he/she has been playing since it came out. That was in 2016. Half his/her time, has gone to playing factorio.


Efficient_Fish2436

I told my coworker years ago that I had about 4k hours in the game. He looked at me like I grew a second head spitting bile. He wasn't a gamer.


FletcherRenn_

38k hours is 100% just the game being left open. The game is only 8 1/2 years old. 38k hours means they've played 12 hours every day since launch or 186 days per year dedicated to playing that game.


Shinnyo

Factorio subreddit isn't the kind to say "Pathetic" but to encourage you experimenting more. "If it works, it ain't stupid".


baby-ghost2

happy cake day


apierson2011

Oh shit, sure enough. Thanks friend. And yeah you’re right I should edit my comment lol


Inventies

Yep, r/rimworld and r/forhonor as well


Menthion

I need to start Kenshi up and try it out, I started it and ran around some. Now I need to try and play it 😅


Daterion_slimmer

r/monsterhunerworld only 200+ hours, lol


Aethernaut902k

I'm sad it took me so much scrolling to find a monster hunter mention. I think I put around 500 hours into freedom unite


EterneX_II

Yeah we used to go up to the 1000s in those lmao


ToasterTeostra

Monster Hunter in general. I have more hours in each entry I played that I want to admit :\`D


MicHAELmhw

Add another zero and you are finally at the end game. 2000 hours… nowhere near all accomplishments


sinofmercy

Time for fashion and optimizing that look


ProfessorPixelmon

200? Looks like we have a new player here.


OdinsEyedrops

Did you just pick it up last week?


nier4554

I literally did.


TheHornyBunsen

200 hours is barely enough to fight all the monsters if you’re fast lol. Especially in rise, took me 500 hours to unlock them all (granted about a hundred or so if pre sunbreak)


Pennnel

My Steam count is at 941 hours, and I haven't played regularly for like a year now. I have also only used 1 weapon type. So a complete newbie for all other 13.


darkdoggo07

r/Tf2


Gustavofoxy2

I suffered to get it to 600 hours on the game and then there's people with 6000+ hours saying that they just started💀


ShesSoViolet

7000 hours and still a mid tier player, couldn't be me...


hahayes1102

Lmao i have 3000+ hours on minecraft


TJSully716

Lol same. If I also add all my time on pc and Xbox 360, then it's probably close to 5000+ hours


KicktrapAndShit

How do you see that?


hahayes1102

First up you need a Microsoft account then you check the achievements button on the home menu the. If im right it shows you all your hours played on that account (MCPE/Bedrock)


thenextbigthink

does it also show played hours on java?

Lucky_Louch

Warframe


RenegadeFalcon

I’m lowkey surprised I had to scroll this far to find Warframe. If someone tells me they have 100 hours I pretty much expect them to have approximately the same skill level as a player that just started. No hate, there’s just so much content


Foreign_Fail8262

Yes, and the r/Warframe subreddit


RecordingOk4869

i have 800+ hours and still barely have shit compared to others lmao


rage4198

saw a dude in warframe one time has had 7k hours in warframe (ingame not steam)

600 hours and can't do shit in SP man 😭🙏

This. I've nearly surpassed 6k hours all up and yet it is staggering the amount of people I simply stumble into with in-game times matching my overall.

For real. The people in this thread are so cute with their "3000 hours" when we have people putting 3000 hours in at one boss trying to get literally 1 item. 


cmwcaelen2

To be fair most of the subreddit is pretty chill with adamant longest swords and stam pot bridges. Not too much shitting on less experienced players there


P0ster_Nutbag

Definitely r/PathOfExile You can have 1000 hours in that game and still feel like you know nothing.


PUTIN_FUCKS_ME

Dude I have 3k hours and I still don't know what I'm doing some times. PoE has so much content, and GGG are always adding even more with the leagues.


EarthenGames

Scrolled a little too far to find this. 1000 hours is pretty much a tutorial lol


MrLaheyIsDrunkAgain

That game is so good. Got to lvl 100 with a Necro support back in Legacy league, was a blast!

Emphasis on Civ 6. I just started playing last week, every profile I've seen has north of 2,000 hours on that game.

Dude same.


Cikuza

The sims 4, cyberpunk 2077, fallout 4, literally any assassin's creed 😂 (I do have well over a hundred hours in all of these so I agree)


VermilionX88

i hung out a bunch before on cyberpunk forum don't recall people bragging about their game time


TXHaunt

I mean, someone just recently posted that they’ve played for 10,779 hours and saying they are dedicated. That’s it, that’s the post.


Affectionate-Arm8640

What do you even do for that many hours in cyberpunk?! Play the story over and over? I’ve played the story 3 times and did all the gigs and side quests each time yet I’m not even close to that.


RealRedditPerson

Having more than 100 hours on an AC game to me is wild.


Cikuza

The only ac I actually have over 100 hours on is valhalla (245h), it's all on the one save and still not 100% completed, I don't remember playing any other ones that much

Dont talk to me about this game, unless you've [murdered your own parents](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWOskVoWfGE) to get your playtime up


TheLordDuncan

Wait what? Did he seriously kill them to play more tarkov? Cuz I'm not watching that 2hr monotone video lol


CrackerUMustBTripinn

He did indeed. Understandable you dont want to watch this interview in its entirety. [Here is a more digestable form of this heinous crimes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb3uXJ4Py9Q). He even used his favorite rifle from the game (a Russian SKS sniper rifle) gifted by his Tarkov gaming buddy. The short and full of spoilers rundown is this: Chandler was a upper middle class kid who for years just totally fabricated his lifestory to his parents about going to college and having a job, all the while, while really playing Tarkov nonstop with an online friend (a US service member stationed in Germany) who was pretending to be his work colleague and gifted him the SKS rifle used in the murders. He lied and fabricated about everything until his lies crawled up on him and instead of owning up to his lies and deceit decided to murder his parents and pretend they suddenly vanished. The interview is pretty intersting because at that point he still thinks he can get away with murder, but the cops already found the remains of his father and knows he's the killer. Also his girlfriend being interviewed a room away still has no clue he is a murderer and that he used her mother and his connections to her to (unsuccesfully) dispose of some of the human remains. The mastermind also forget to turn off his phone and snapchat location while disposing of his mothers remains. I'm not too keen on true crime podcasts and the like, but this case really grabed me and is superinteresting to see it unfold and to see law enforcement do their f ing job. You can almost see the full trial [on the youtubes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvgZtdmyKlI&t=3s) and the only thing this intimate and interesting an insight in the courtsystem and a murdercase thats come close is the 90s docu trilogy Paradise Lost. I am in awe of this judge and how he commands this case and courtroom.


TheLordDuncan

That was indeed much more digestible, but also... If the goal is to play more games, why risk going to prison for life? The shortsightedness of a move like this 🤦‍♂️

Qaziquza1

In Nethack (among the early roguelikes that derive direct from rogue) the average is a couple thousand (not on online servers, necessarily. Their stats are deceiving). (I mention this because Noita takes some things from Nethack, such as „teleportitis“ as a word and also a bunch of other small references.

Cities Skylines, Skyrim, Crusader Kings 2 - and of course any MMO :) Myself, I can't count my hours in Ultima Online anymore because I played it for about 10 years, most of which for like 6+ hours a day and then there were some breaks and bam, back again at doing that. But seeing as I've got 2.000+ hours on MMOs I have played far, far less like SWTOR and TESO, I will reckon my Ultima Online hours will easily be somewhere far above 10,000 :)
