How many hours (or days) have you put into your most-played game on PC, and how do you feel about that number?
on the right column of your Steam profile page. Any hour you logged on Steam after March 2009, when Valve implemented the feature, is tabulated here.Yes, I like first-person shooters.I get weirdly sentimental looking at this page and I don't know why I care so much about its integrity
I think it's normal and noble for us to want our time spent playing PC games to be meaningful in retrospect. My fellow editors seem to think so—when I brought up this idea, associate editor Ted Litchfield shared a memory of hunting down idlers in Team Fortress 2 surf servers out of spite. And associate editor Lauren Morton takes her game organization a step further than me, sorting her entire Steam library by hours-played, a thing I forgot you could do.
Hours-played is the closest thing I have to an objective measurement of how much I valued these games. I find myself obsessing over it like a trophy cabinet I can't stop fiddling with. I'm bothered whenever I walk away from a game and leave it running for 10 or 20 minutes, knowing that it's diluted the accuracy of this permanent record of PC gaming. I don't mind playing games on the Epic Games Launcher, but it does sting to know that my playthroughs of Chivalry 2 and Darkest Dungeon aren't neatly tabulated in the same place. .
I check in on this page every few weeks, usually to confirm the impact of a recent game I've played and see where it falls. This year both Spelunky 2 and Hunt have claimed the #4 and #6 positions in my list, with the latter being one I played throughout 2021 before
