The Animal Crossing series is king when it comes to long games. The popular Nintendo social simulation game series is a timesink in every sense of the word. For example, it will take around 422 hours to complete everything that the latest installment, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, has to offer. This is an absurd amount of time that only a small fraction of Animal Crossing players will put into the game. But, even if you double this, you still would not reach the playtime of one Elden Ring player.
According to Redditor, u/JayzRebellion15, he has played Elden Ring for at least a thousand hours and he's not even done yet. As JayzRebellion15 explains, the game has a 999-hour time limit. This means that the internal clock maxes out at 999:59:59 and the system will not recognize a second more of playtime.
In theory, JayzRebellion15 could log in another 999 hours playing Elden Ring and we would not know.
Now, because this is the internet we're talking about, other Redditors jumped in to do some quick maths. As per the calculation of the more arithmetically-gifted gamers, the enormous playtime imputes that JayzRebellion15 has played Elden Ring for at least 7.35 hours a day since it launched. This pretty much means that JayzRebellion15 dedicates as much time to playing Elden Ring as most people do to work. The good news is that he probably does this for a living.
