Hours clocked on a game

[AngeL]

How many hours on average do you clock on any given game? And would you say that you take pride in the hours you have clocked for that game?

Just a curious question...

[HEART]

this kind of tells you that info. just plug in your url info.
I don't think it works for private profiles though.

mmmm i meant the hours you invest in a game so sort of like why do you play a game for so long ?

also i'm not looking for help im just wanting to understand if people take pride in how much hours they have clocked and why ?

[HEART]

oh ok, I'm sorry. I misread.

[AngeL]

its algoods :)

[HEART]

really depends on the game. I try to 100% every game I play, thus my high achievement percentage and perfect games:games owned ratio. I usually stop playing when this happens, the rare exception being Skyrim and others.

no pride in hours, I could care less what that number shows to others

[AngeL]

ahh ok thats interesting...

is there a reason why you play games?

If I play a game for more than 10 hours, that means I really like playing it. Less than that, with no recent activity, means I probably idled those games to get cards. Other than that, the hours don't really matter much.

The games I would replay over and over again:

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (obviously)
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Killing Floor 2
Left 4 Dead 2
Saints Row: The Third

Because it took that long? I'm not usually in a rush to finish a game.

Ok fair enough... which games would you say you enjoy the most?

[HEART]

is this for a paper or something? because that's what it sounds like.

No, no pride; I'm more or less neutral on the matter. Though sometimes the opposite is true: the numbers can be an embarrassment and sometimes I'd prefer if Steam didn't have that feature at all--if for no other reason than people will often jump to incorrect conclusions or form faulty opinions based on those numbers.

Yehr that is a fair enough statement, but why do you play games?
