Question for devs: How many hours have people spent playing crpg in total?

[Riddaren]

If someone who runs steam warband while playing crpg could post their hrs and number of gens across all characters we could make some kind of estimation, at least among people in the thread.

Well. You can easily estimate anyway.

For example, on an average 21 hours per week for 4 years:
21*52*4 = 4368 hours

Or 3 hours per day for 4 years:
3*365*4 = 4380 hours

[Prpavi]

About 3-4k hours.

Probably got 10k+ hours... so much looms

I doubt that.. even 8k sounds impossible. 10k in 4 years would mean almost 7 hours every single day, not possible.

The sad truth is that too many of the people here really wasted a good amount of their life time. If we say that in one year you have about 5600 hours of free time and take that as an example of time played, than that's more than 1% of your entire life time and now calculate that for all your games combined.

Time to do something better...

Life is full of downtime.

Like sleeping, if you lived to be 67 you would effectively (with an average ~8 hours sleep cycle) have spent 23.45 years in bed, meaning you only "lived" 43.6 years of your total of 67.
.. or sitting in traffic, which is about ~48 hours every year in the US.
.. waiting in line is about ~1 hour every day, which amounts to 2/3 years of your life.
.. you spend about a year of your life sitting on the toilet.
.. with an average work week of 40 hours you spend about 10.3 years of your life working.
.. average American watches TV for 2.8 hours a day, amounting to 80486 hours (~9.18 years) in total.

Life is nothing but a series of moments, the rest is downtime I'd prefer some of that downtime to be gaming rather than the other stuff then!

around 3,5 k for sure.
that said i'd rather play crpg instead of watching stupid TV that brainwashing you with idiotic arguments.
Sometimes i am forced to watch it sadly and it's outstanding how many people out there is still watching THE BIG BROTHER , seriously....at least show boobs but all you get is blabbering and fighting and wtf staged things.
NO , i prefer to nudge random virtual characters in crpg , thanks.

thb I consider 8 hours of my day spent in the office at work the biggest time waste of the day...

[Mlekce]

i played this in first year for at least 5 hours a day,sometimes 8-10 hours easily. I spent a lot of time in singleplayer,and at least 3k hours in multiplayer.
Saddest thing is after spending this much time on one game i am still noob.

[Switchtense]

I guess about 1500ish hours. Maybe a bit more, maybe less. No idea really.

Possible. I got a steamfriend, he got around 700 hours in Borderlands 2 BUUUT!
Now ~10500hours in Killing Floor! I cant remember the release date of KF2 but it seems possible...
