How many hours?

[teddy bear]

I'm curious to how many hours others have put into the game, for instance ive put a little over 800 hours into the game (replaying the Pacifist route, failed attempts at the Genocide route, Neutral routes)

Wow, 800 on this is a lot. I was shocked when I found out I had a bit over 30 when I'd done everything I wanted (a couple of different neutral routes, pacifist, genocide, and soulless pacifist). I mean I have 800 on other games I'm sure, since across 2 accounts I have roughly 600 hours on Civ V and there are other games on console I'm sure I've played more. Still, I would hesitate to say there's even 100 hours worth of content here, let alone 800.

It’s currently my second most played game on Steam at a measily 111 hours.... Yeeeahh... I don’t have the time to play games as much anymore sadly. But you know a game is good if I’m willing to sink that much time into it, mostly just playing Pacifist route and finding all the secrets and easter eggs, as well as a couple of genocide routes where I got to Sans but quit after dozens of failed attempts at beating him.

As I'm currently posting this comment, I have over 200 hours of play time on Undertale and by far it's the only game I do replay the most in my Steam account. My other games are simple short and sweet RPG maker games, two of which were big parts of my days as a high school student. And I do have a couple of free to plays in here.

I always have replayed the True Pacifist Route over and over because I can never come to kill anybody just to see the other endings. My only neutral endings would either be the Betrayed Undyne Ending or the Family Ending. I have done a few rounds of the Hard Mode. Other than that, it's just me redoing all the pacifist stuff and eventually, it came to the point where I installed Steam and Undertale on a different PC in my house to pull off the no save run. After that, there really isn't anything else for me to do with this game.

I have ~23H because everytime when i want to start playing it again Jiminy Judges and lectures me , also i can't make Asriel sad.( I did only one run and it was the true pacifist run). But with the switch i do get a second True pacifist run.

mmm i played the pacifist run on a pirated version of the game when it first came out and spent at least 48 hours on it? i initially was on a neutral route, but i had to do a system restore due to my keyboard acting up so i lost the game and had to start over lol

(never take advice from someone only knowing secondhand information about the game you're playing btw. i was confused on why my keyboard wouldn't let me move the cursor in the battle menu and my friend assured me that's to be expected of the game so i had no choice but to actually fight monsters even though they were probably actually thinking about the latter parts of the game.)

by then i learned about how to do the pacifist route so i did just that. (though to be honest most of the time i spent was either listening to music in an area or pouring a lot of time on snail racing because i wanted to raise enough money to buy the temmie armor.)

otherwise, my attempt at the genocide run is... not that long. i apparently only decided to be a genocidal maniac for two hours because i lost too much patience for level grinding. ;;

Cor, that's a slow and risky way to raise money! Buying stuff like Cloudy Glasses from Gerson, and then selling them at a higher price to Temmie, would've a much quicker and safer way to do that (although you probably know that by now).

As for me, I've spent 107.9 hours on the game so far; I was on 87.1 hours until last month - from three True Pacifist runs (including one "no-healing", two neutral runs (one "no-acting" and one "betrayal"), two genocide runs (including one "no-healing" again), and one Soulless Pacifist run. I've since done the "no-save" versions of each type of playthrough (with my neutral run being "no-mercy") - minus True Pacifist, obviously!

I do intend to get more neutral variations in the future, too; and also to do pacifist and genocide runs with other specific rules, such as "stick-and-bandage". I'll probably end up breaking 200-250 hours, eventually...

I've got ~25. Neutral run then pacifist run. I refuse to do genocide.
