I have 1000+ hours in Forza Horizon 4 & 5, mainly due to weekly FOMO (new car every Thursday).

Edit: formatting.
Either skyrim or oblivion. probably Oblivion. It's the most immersive game world I've encountered. Emminently replayable.

killing floor 1
AI (Alien Isolation)
Path of Exile. It literally captures you once you take a grasp on game mechanics and find an interesting character build.
Oh boy, theres a lot to talk about chatacter building.
Theres no ARPG game in the market with such complexity in planning your character. Dopamine hits when you reach your build's peak and while you chase for milestones, like upgrading gear, leveling, bossing, etc. Leagues are breath of fresh air, introducing expansions + new content, also possibility to start a fresh character in fresh ladder & economy.
Playing PoE with pals in a guild and sharing milestones, moments, items & currency, helping each other with progression sucks you even further in.
Its so addictive that I've had to stop playing it, because it takes so much of your time. But I don't regret playing it. Good times.

Breath of the Wild. I put about 300 hours into it.
EverQuest 1. Diablo 1,2,and 3. Cities skylines. Forgot about terraria.
World of warcraft. Still true. I only played up through Crusade even. But it ate literally dozens of days of my life. I wouldn't say I regret that, as it was a learning experience for me. But I would definitely not have played wow if I could go back.
ah i was struggling to come up with an answer, but it's probably still WoW for me too. solidarity, friend

Over 750 hours in Total War: Warhammer II.
Probably 2,000 or so in Guild Wars 2.
Continuum. I have more than 10 thousand hours on my main account, 3 thousand more on alts I do not have access anymore. Most of the time was afk or just being online since it had a chat and very lightweight. You can see top players by usage time on the trenchwars server website.
Microsoft flight simulator thanks to slow internet and 200gb updates every time I play.
Stellaris almost 600 hours and Cities Skylines, around 400 h. Damn!
Looking at 600+ hours in Rimworld, and probably even more in Dwarf Fortress but 200+ since the Steam release, it wasn't tracked before.
Gtav on ps3 was a blast.
Crudader Kings 2 at 1400 hours and Total War Warhammer II and I at 800 hours
Old School RuneScape, by a lot!
League of Legends, no doubt (and no idea how many hours across my two main accounts). Just... yikes on a bike, that one.
Other tops probably Sims if I can count all the different games. Stardew and animal crossing are up there as well, I'm sure.
I'm over 10k hours on FFXIV, been playing since launch. Could get an exact answer when i get home. Next closest is Skyrim with around 1,500.
Edit: it's over 14k hours, more than 584 days worth. It'd be much more if I had more time the last two years but I can't do much than dailies with a 15 month old!
1200 hours on Halo The Master Chief Collection on steam. And absolutely countless more on Halo Reach on the Xbox 360.
That would be Elden Ring. Spent 200+ hours on that game (might sound like rookie numbers but that was my first open world game, was just a casual gamer before that).

Quake Champions for sure. Best competitive shooter I've ever played (and I've tried all the popular ones), great option if you like movement & aim centric games
Hard to say for certain but on Xbox it would have to be Halo MCC or The Witcher 3. I also played a lot of World of Warcraft back in the day so thatβs probably up there too.
I would guess I have multiple thousands of hours across the Halo and Pokemon series. My highest played steam game is dead by daylight (gross) at 1k hours. Deep Rock Galactic and PUBG are at around 500.
First Chivalry game was dope. Funniest pvp hack n slash ever. Can't even get mad when you die cuz the voice acting and emotes n shit was over the top hilarious. Imagine if "Were knights of the round table" from Monty python was a medieval call of duty that was it.
Chiv 2 is pretty good too but didn't get too deep honestly cuz I sunk in hundreds of hours on the first and retired.
GTA series in general, and GTA V in particular.
Guild Wars 2 by far, 10k hours. Followed by Wow and Civ 5.
Quake II consumed about a decade of my life. Alright, 15+ years.
Toram Online, 700+ hours. Not counting the time spent on the PC port though.
