Longest Games You've Beaten!

FFXIV playtime: 339 days, 1 hour, 37 minutes. Or over 8000 hours.

Now, that's a meaningless figure because its just login time, not actual playtime which is why I'm not adding it to the site. A lot of leaving the game logged in when not being used. It also counts 23 content patches and 3 expansions, all played as released, which takes longer than doing them when they are old content.

I have 167 hours in Hollow Knight, and Persona 5 Royal is a close second, with 140 hours. I beat games with around 20 hours, according to HLTB. But I don't exactly know my times with most games, I deduce them because for some reason consoles mostly don't tell you your time

Updating my list:

1. Elden Ring (PC) - 122h45m
2. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition (PS4) - 102h51m
3. Battletech (PC) - 86h59m
4. Pillars of Eternity (PS4) - 80h
5. Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire - Ultimate Edition (PS4) - 77h28m

I was sure the next time I would be updating this list it would be to include Higurashi. But then I tried to beat Elden Ring once more and it took over all my gaming for like 2-3 months. My time for Elden Ring does not include the 42h from a previous (retired) playthrough.
When I eventually get around to finish Higurashi it will either place first or second place (currently).

Here are my 10 longest time on mostly Singleplayer games (Not including Multiplayers and MMOs):

1. Persona 4 Golden - PC - 176.2 hours (+164 hours on PS Vita)
2. Persona 5 - Ps3 - 165 hours
3. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition - Ps4 - 158.2 hours
4. Persona 5 Royal - PC - 157.1 hours
5. Elden Ring - PC - 152.7 hours
6. Pokémon Sword and Shield - Nintendo Switch - 140 hours
7. Cyberpunk 2077 - PC - 135.5 hours
8. Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy - PSP - 123.3 hours
9. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - PC - 115 hours
10. Dissidia: Final Fantasy - PSP - 87.9 hours

I did not include Destiny 2 (around 1394.6 hours), Minecraft (around 1000 hours across all platforms), Animal Crossing: New Horizons (215 hours), Monster Hunter: World (171.7 hours), Mortal Kombat 11 (150 hours), Terraria (143 hours on Vita + 63.5 hours on PC), and so on. Since these games were played with friends.

Updating my list. Yet again. 2nd time in March 2023. What a month.

Well ... so this happend. A visual novel on top of my top five longest games. Who would have expected that to happen? Took me 2.5 years.

1. Higurashi - When They Cry (PC) - 131h
2. Elden Ring (PC) - 122h45m
3. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition (PS4) - 102h51m
4. Battletech (PC) - 86h59m
5. Pillars of Eternity (PS4) - 80h

this is a complicated one, as i don't have a lot of concrete hours for the games thatI've spent on the most time on.
For Minecraft, I put 2000 hours to try and round every single hour of minecraft i might've ever played. The highest actual satistic I have is over 1000 hours on Windows Bedorck Minecraft, plus 500ish on Switch and however more I've played after that, the statistic is probably actually around that 2000 I put.
Now im not sure how accurate the switch progress tracker is, but the games ive spent the longest in on that console aside from minecraft are Pokemon Shield (450ish, but thats not including other playthroughs) Animal Crossing New Horizons (also 450ish) (which I have finished, but logged as retired) Smash Ultimate (400ish), Super Mario Odyssey (200ish) and some others. It's EASILY the console I've spent the most time on. I sadly don't really have concrete data, and all my playtimes are estimates nowadays.

I'll only be counting singleplayer games, since you can't really "beat" multiplayer games. I counted game compilations together because I only consider them completed once I've finished every game in the collection.

10. Octopath Traveler - 63 h 9 m
9. Hollow Knight - 67 h 59 m
8. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle - 75 h
7. Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam - 76 h 40 m
6. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony - 77 h 5 m
5. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles - 80 h 44 m
4. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy - 86 h 37 m
3. Super Mario 3D All-Stars - 95 h 1 m
2. Teardown - 104 h 54 m
1. Pokemon Omega Ruby - 109 h 42 m

100 hours and I still can't beat the last boss on Skull: The Hero Slayer.
