How many hours do you actually spend playing games in a week?

[PrismRed]

What the title said, don't you find it weird that people who likes video games actually willing to spend their time on a forum, with bunch of strangers, instead of playing vidya games?

I play at least 2 hours everyday and around 8 to 10 hours every weekend, so 25 hours give or take on average, how about you guys?

It really does depend:

On my own: 20-40 minutes a day.

With an audiobook: North of one hour.

With friends or family: Around two hours.

Right now I'm unemployed, so I spend 5-6 hours on evenings gaming. 40 hours-ish I could say. During the day goes to chores and other stuff.

used to be a lot - 5 or 6 hours a day and on weekends sometimes close to 10 , but that was years ago , now its like i feel that i don't have the time even though i have zero social life and i work 40 hours a week since the mid 90's , as i have gotten older i have got lazy and get fatigued at work easily and just don't have the energy to do much. i still download a lot of games from pirate sites and on average i would play each one for maybe 2 hours depending on how good it is - i tend to go more for the 16bit style retro games.

At least 1 hour

Less than 2 hours (and it's mostly mobile games) a day except for Sundays. Working 12 hours a day is a bitch.

It depends, I work from home and my job requires me just needing my work phone and my work book for 2 things so most of my day can be fairly quiet if we aren’t too busy and I’ll spend my time playing games if I have a new one like I’m actually playing Black Flag Resynched right now and that will be a thing until the afternoon lol


Weekends, if I have no other plans and don’t need to go anywhere, I’ll spend most of the weekend playing a new game.


If I don’t have anything new, I can go weeks without playing until the next game I want.

I get about an hour during weekdays and a couple hours each day on the weekend. I love my son but he definitely has eaten into my gaming time.

 

[Nebulon_Galaxy]

Its a toss up from 1 hour towards 4 hours on the weekdays depending if I want to play video games or study. but on the weekends i can play well over 10 hours and get a lot of stuff done on that timeframe. Work is whats stopping me from enjoying my hobbies!

 

[PSVitaForever]

Too many (not in the last weeks, but I would like to play a bit more now that I must do something else).

On weekdays work days I mostly Play games at night but on Saturday I play whole day Sunday is my rest this for watching movies anime or cartoon.

It's funny you say that since, when I'm actively playing a game, I'm rarely to never pulling away from it to chat with people. When editing recorded footage, though, my work ethic is the worst.

It varies heavily based on what I'm playing/editing, but let's say my average is in the 10~15 range.

 

[lestagio]

It depends, but I'd suspect at minimum 10 hours, but probably more since I'd say I play 2 hours nightly pretty often, or sometimes on a lunch break, or in a meeting that I don't care about (lol). Sometimes I'll watch more movies or read more, and sometimes I'll just be gaming, and sometimes I have life to attend to. It really depends.

 

[Potapota]

Weekly average now is probably what I used to pull off in one free day when I was younger. A two hour gaming session is enough to make me feel a bit weary these days. Just sitting down for more than that makes me feel like I'm starting to slowly wither away. I feel like an old man lol.

 

[Mahopon]

If I play a game, I usually play for 1 - 3 hours, but there are also a lot of days when I don't play game at all. For example today I haven't played any games and instead read 9 chapters of Jukai (a random horror manga I found on dex), 1 chapter of Hen na Ie and 1 vol of Ruri Dragon. Also I plan to read Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun next, I already read it in eng years ago and now want to re-read it in JP.

 

[Nocturnalrisen]

honestly, it depends on how much i'm hyperfixating on a game.
sometimes i go the whole week without touching a single game, sometimes i play the game for like 2-3 hours or until my battery is extremely low. (i have alot of free time)
right now, i'm playing through persona 2: innocent sin so my gaming time is in the hours.

 

[KamakoKamako's icon]

On average I play about 4-6 hours a day, and I would play more if I could. Gaming is my greatest passion.

 

[Alkider]

Depends. As of right now I'm putting in way too many XD
Once school starts again It'll probably cut back to a couple hours If schedules don't conflict.
I might record game play and other stuff to do things with but for now I just want to enjoy the games I'm playing without pressure.

 

[CheesyExplosive]

sometimes 12/7.

 

[TruthandConsequence]

Too much. Way too much. Oh well, I enjoy my time, which is more than what others can say about their lives.
