Poll of the Day > How many games do you think you can/do play through in a year?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I sorta kept track last year but was missing some, I think it extrapolated out to low 20s. This year I'm gonna shoot for 30 but that might be a lot. Doing the math that's like 17 hours a week if I assume a game averages out to 30 hours. I could definitely do 17 in a week but doing 17 every week sounds pretty crazy. But I also have no life so we'll see

You can do it, Chewy. I believe in you.

I average around 5 a year. I lack the motivation to do more.

I dunno probably like 4-5

a lot of my time is spent playing games Ive already played, or its games that dont really have a traditional end point

I was including ones that I've already played, but my count is basically only stuff that actually has a strict beginning and end. There are definitely a few more multiplayer games and stuff of that nature that I play in a typical year on top of my count

Also TBH I wish I could convince myself to play only like five games in a year. That's probably about the number I play that I feel like end up being genuinely great. But since I have a backlog of stuff I'm always thinking well I might as well try to get through as much of it as I can

4 or 5 sounds about right. But I play a lot of sandbox type games that don't really have an end. If you count playing those until I get bored then... a lot more.

Same. I've easily put enough hours in over the last year to clear 30-40 games, but most of those hours have been spent replaying older stuff and/or playing sandboxy type things. I'm not sure I actually completed more than 10 last year, despite all the pandemic free time (most of which went into Animal Crossing and PSO2).

Somehow I forget how much time I put into AC even though that was my most played last year. Between that, Minecraft and Rocket League I probably put in enough hours to beat at least a dozen games. I'll probably barely play any AC this year but I don't know about the other two.
