Put 20 civs on them.

how much of that is play time

Agreed, I'm nearing 1400 but I would honestly say about 5-10% of that is not play time... I think I can safely say the rest is... I'm an addict, can someone help me.
My first time I played roughly 24 hours non stop.... children/job/life nowadays limit that or I would be in the 2K club

Honestly, i thank God, that civ vi didn't fulfill my expectations, not even close, and certain smaller and bigger issues, kinda killed the game for me. I have not a single doubt in my mind that i would have been part of the 2000 hour club long time ago.

VI has been out for what, 6 months? A full-time job (40 hours/week) is just over 2000 per year, so 2000 hours in VI so far is the equivalent of two full-time jobs. Not to rain on the parade, but that might be enough to indicate a problem. :lol:

I haven't bought VI yet, got about 70 hours in V, around 250 in IV, who knows how many in III as that was mostly disc-based. Most of any game on Steam is EUIV at 800+, but it came out 3.5 years ago. I think that's still a decent amount.

Quint... buy the damn game. We need more Civ 3ers around.

Civ 3ers are the best Civers.

Clearly.
 
3500 hours in CivV for me, 650-ish so far in CivVI. Almost none was AFK. Retirement is great!

Ah, another person close to 10,000 in Civ5... I thought I was the only maniac.

I think if you roll over it over to 10,000 hours Sid Meier personally shows up at your door to stage an intervention. :lol:

>10,000 in Civ 5 (the game was around for many many years!) and >1000 with Civ 6.

Wait, was that the doorbell? You'd better go check who it is...

I'll get the odd period where I leave the computer for what I think is going to be 5 minutes, and it turns into half an hour, but mostly my time does reflect me sitting at the computer puzzling out what I'm going to do to get myself out of my latest mess

I don't think that's unusual, even if most of it was AFK time. I bet a ton of people with multiple displays or virtual machines would have obscene time played counters from AFK time adding up. It's too easy to leave a game open on accident. I can't even count the number of times I've ended a turn of Civ on one monitor in lategame and then forgotten about it till the next day.

If I play civ at home these days, it's usually alongside a twitch stream, a ladder or review game of go on tygem, and possibly a hearthstone arena run or something. At work the AFK time would rack up even more severely... 1 monitor with python idle + bash, some griddy/gibbs/mcmc sampler running in the background, cnbc and bloomberg streams, REDIplus, cme clearport, 6th monitor civ or maybe poker sng or fanduel daily... I realize my case borders on insanity, but most gamers who play on PC have 2 or more monitors. Even like just youtube + Civ can easily sidetrack someone and then it's not unlikely you end up stumbling into bed during the middle of a turn, tired, deep into a long session of gaming.

Maybe I'm rationalizing a lil bit on my 1744 hours...
 
I have one monitor which I find is enough. So far, I have been pretty consistent in shutting down games when I leave my computer. Being retired does give me far more opportunity to play than before.
 
679 hours on Civ V (haven't played since 10/17/2016 -- must have been purging in preparation for Civ VI).

383 hours on Civ VI (last played yesterday).

Work, spouse, and life in general stick their noses into my business, so it may be a week between play sessions, and it may take me a month to finish a 400 +/- turn game. Can't play this way without map pins! I also keep written notes. In lieu of an "undo" button, I'm also teaching myself to quicksave.
 
1200 hours here and i feel as if civ6 was my job for the past couple of months. 3000 hours is too much for my - very nerdy - taste, no offense. ;)
 
Played most of a game in offline mode, does offline mode count your hours played?
 
Civ V - 2,341 hours as of this post. I didn't start until after BNW was out, though. I got it in mid 2014, I believe.
Civ VI - 394 hours so far. I go back and forth between V and VI currently.
Bonus: beyond earth - 94 lol
