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?

There are a lot games i played over 100 hours. Every big mmorpg i played in the past has for sure over 100 hours. That would be Guildwars and Elsword for me. But since i'm a big jrpg fan, there are a few games that just take over 100 hours. Persona 5 for example. I played the original Persona 5 and Persona 5 royal, so about 200 hours on this game. The Trails of the cold steel series has quite long games, 3 out of 4 took me over 100 hours and i played them all one after another, so it took me about 400 hours to finish this series. I played Genshin impact for 500 hours i guess, but forget about that...i'm finished with this. I played maybe every Fire Emblem entry for over 100 hours, reaching on Three houses about 400 hours and on Engage already about 250 hours. Final Fantasy X is my favorite FF game i have played so much. Over the years for sure about 10 times, so i guess i played to 300+ hours. So there are a few fighting games i played for a long time, my favorite in the last years is Soulcalibur VI. I played Soulcalibur VI for about 800h i think. I still would say i play a big variaty of games, but i invest in some of them a bit more time. But i doubt i reach 1000h in any game recent game, only in the mmorpgs, but that was a long time ago.
