My friend just shared this with me: screenshot from Steam showing a playtime of 8000 hours for Final Fantasy XIV

FFXIV released in 2013. That's ~12 years ago, which is about 105,120 hours of human existence.

105,120/28,625 = 3.6723144104

Meaning you've played an average of 3 hours and 40 minutes per day, every day, for the past 12 years (and that's a slight under count because the game hasn't hit its 12th anniversary yet)

That's 5585 hours MORE than a full time 40hr/week job; nearly 3 whole years of pure labor.

All I have to say is congratulations, you beat the hardest game there is: capitalism. Enjoy your furry weeb paradise, friend.

I appreciate the praise but it belongs to someone else

My most played is 250 hours for a game from 2008

Omg, I'll share this with them and say they have rookie numbers haha

There isn't even 2k hours worth of content in XIV

I wonder what your friend does. My guess is they're an altoholic or they just RP every day, perhaps even ERP.

I guess some of it could be idling.

Pretty shitty that you immediately assume the worst of people, just for having a game they enjoy.

I'm not sure if that was a joke but I laughed.

"I bet that guy roleplays"

'Why would you accuse him of such heinous behavior???'

[-] _____@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

lol

I personally wish I could roleplay and get into it, id seriously e playing more ff if I could

I did it in person when I was in like the third grade. A girl four years older than me in my neighborhood would sneak onto the elementary school playground and just take turns describing what our OCs were doing in the story while we swung on the swing set. I can't remember any plotlines, only visualizations.

Yeah I've never actually RPed in FF and I think I'm approaching 2k hours now... Lots of existing, it's a chatroom with more dumbness and random adventures mixed in

I ask myself the same thing! I wish I had a singular game I loved as much as they love FF14
