What game have you put the most hours into this year

[DarkAvenger45]

Could be something brand new or an old favourite you keep going back to. Share it and roughly how many hours you reckon you're at, plus whether that surprised you when you actually added it up.

Still waiting for GTA6 for the big loss of human activity

This year has been a lot of Baldur's Gate 3 for me, probably around 140 hours. The funny thing is that I am not even close to being done with everything I want to see. Different choices can change enough of a quest that I keep thinking I will just replay one section and then somehow end up starting another campaign.

The best part for me has been the freedom to solve encounters in completely different ways. A fight that looks like a straightforward combat encounter can turn into stealth, persuasion, environmental nonsense, or a plan that works only because three unrelated abilities happen to interact. That kind of flexibility keeps the hours from feeling repetitive.
