How long do you game for, per week?

I used to game for about an hour before studying, and half an hour after.

Currently zero and mostly always zero. I put 100 hours into dragon quest viii a few months ago though.

0 at this minute in time I used to play a lot of EA FC 25, but only seasons as I joined too late for Ultimate Team and I don’t really know how to play it. Plus I am trying to manage my way around games especially how much they cost, so I tend to buy a game here and there and will do so towards the end of the month if it can come at a bargain. With summer now here and football up and running there’s not any point in playing personally don’t want to miss out on the weather we are having outside. :dontknow:
When I am gaming, my average duration is an hour. It is an occassional activity in my leisure time, that is to say there are so many weeks in a year in which I am not playing games.

Weekly, 2-3 hours but when there’s a new update I tend to play a bit more! Honkai star rail and cookie run kingdom have had updates yesterday :biggrin:

May I ask you how many hours you spend for gaming? if I play, two hours are the maximum as a rule.
Lately I've been getting back into City of Heroes (used to play it about 20 years ago but after they closed the server in 2012 I had no idea anybody had brought it back until I found out recently.)
So I've been playing with my hubby, daughter, and youngest son. We've been doing about 1 to 1.5 hours per session, around 2-3 times a week.
This has only been in the past month mind you.

Other than that I don't game a lot. I'm usually too busy to game, but occasionally, say once every 6 weeks or so, I'll take maybe 2 days off and then play things like House Flipper or the Sims 4 all day, only stopping to cook meals, use the bathroom, and assist my family members if they need me. But I mean I don't do any studying or house cleaning or anything, the bulk of those 2 days is just gaming.

And then it's back to the grind.
I have played very little in the last ten years or so, but have consciously trying to get back into gaming because I've always enjoyed it. I'm focusing on PC gaming given that I bought a decent PC a few years ago. Currently on Helldivers 2, Fights In Tight Spaces and Two Point Museum, all of which are fantastic. My time gaming varies, but it's been around 5-10 hours per week for the last few months.

Love this, especially hearing that you're playing with your children. I only read a few days ago that the servers had been resurrected. Great that you've got back into it.
