I think this video showcases an interesting aspect of gaming that I never really thought about before. In their case, they play more games for a shorter amount of time vs spending a large portion of their time in few games.
Personally I’m on the side of spending more of my time in a select number of games. By far I have put no less then 3000-4000 hours in Minecraft. Logged by Steam, I got 1300+ hours in both GTA V and American Truck Simulator
More recently I’ve been really into Rocket League and Trackmania. These games are notable because I am constantly working to improve and get better at the game. As much replay-ability as much I find enjoyment in succeeding.
From time to time though, I do really enjoy getting into shorter, more story based games. Great examples being Portal 2, Road96, and Firewatch. What kind of gamer are you?
I got into FFXIV for the first time back in February I believe, and I’ve barely played anything else since. I played WoW back in high school and Star Trek online a few years back and told myself I was done with MMOs after that because of the huge time sink and how addictive they are.
But I love the FF franchise and the video clips of the various world maps were so compelling to me. FF always has a story I can get into, so I finally bit the bullet and now all my available game time goes into that.
