Easily 10k hours throughout the Diablo series.
Gtav on ps3 was a blast.
Dunno if counts as a game really.. But about 4k hrs of VRChat - love the place and the friends I made there!
Haven't checked in a while but I think my personal record is 1400+ hrs in Europa Universalis IV.
I have 1000+ hours in Forza Horizon 4 & 5, mainly due to weekly FOMO (new car every Thursday).
totally accurate battle simulator, i have a really strong morbid fascination ngl
~800 hours into PAYDAY 2
~1800 hours in various sim racing games, assetto corsa, project cars 2, dirt rally/DR2, rFactor2.
And some ~300 hours in Stationeers
Path of Exile. It literally captures you once you take a grasp on game mechanics and find an interesting character build.
Oh boy, theres a lot to talk about chatacter building.
Theres no ARPG game in the market with such complexity in planning your character. Dopamine hits when you reach your build's peak and while you chase for milestones, like upgrading gear, leveling, bossing, etc. Leagues are breath of fresh air, introducing expansions + new content, also possibility to start a fresh character in fresh ladder & economy.
Playing PoE with pals in a guild and sharing milestones, moments, items & currency, helping each other with progression sucks you even further in.
Its so addictive that I've had to stop playing it, because it takes so much of your time. But I don't regret playing it. Good times.

EverQuest 1. Diablo 1,2,and 3. Cities skylines. Forgot about terraria.
Breath of the Wild. I put about 300 hours into it.
World of warcraft. Still true. I only played up through Crusade even. But it ate literally dozens of days of my life. I wouldn't say I regret that, as it was a learning experience for me. But I would definitely not have played wow if I could go back.
ah i was struggling to come up with an answer, but it's probably still WoW for me too. solidarity, friend

Microsoft flight simulator thanks to slow internet and 200gb updates every time I play.
Stellaris almost 600 hours and Cities Skylines, around 400 h. Damn!
Looking at 600+ hours in Rimworld, and probably even more in Dwarf Fortress but 200+ since the Steam release, it wasn't tracked before.
That would be Elden Ring. Spent 200+ hours on that game (might sound like rookie numbers but that was my first open world game, was just a casual gamer before that).

Crudader Kings 2 at 1400 hours and Total War Warhammer II and I at 800 hours
hotline Miami, katana zero, ultra kill.
Minecraft. 2.5 kilo hours
Diablo 2 from launch, I won't even guess the hours because it's over 10k easy and that's just not good. Path of Exile says 4k+ hours as well. I'm an old fart though.

AI (Alien Isolation)
Chose to live the DINK life, loving it.
Metin2 my whole childhood. Then Minecraft and Counter Strike
Ark: Survival Evolved. I'm at just under 1000 hours, and Rocksmith 2014 I'm at 466 hrs.
Mass Effect Trilogy. Each game when I initially played had 3-4 careers of 50 hours. This was when one gameβs choices affecting another game to this degree was very new so I would be trying many different permutations.
Definitely the case if we include LE later on.
This depends on what you define as in game. According to Steam, I've spent the most time on NGU Idle at 3306 hours, but a large amount of that was spent with the game running while I was asleep or at work. For Steam games with the most hours, I've spent 840 playing Path of Exile but that doesn't include the 200 or so hours playing the standalone client. This is followed up by 440 hours playing Terraria (which doesn't include console version hours), and Realm of the Mad God which I have 325 hours playing.
If we include MMOs in the mix, I've easily clocked 1500 hours playing both World of Warcraft (between Classic and Retail up to and including Mists of Pandaria) and Guild Wars 2 over the years.
Funny enough, I wouldn't include any of these games in a list of my favorite games other then Terraria, so that's good to keep in mind :)
Diablo 2, mostly back in the early days, but resurrected is still fun
MF sorc and Uber killer pally ftw
