What's the most replayable game you ever played?

Elder Scrolls Morrowind, countless hours spent and then realizing there are mods and world editor.
Also Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines by Troika ... I played through it too many times.

VTMB was truly a great game. It's a shame that Activision set a strict release date and Troika was forced to release the game unfinished. This hurt sales but Wesp fixed it up with his mods.

Surprisingly high replayability for a game that is not that open ... it still fascinates me.
My mind is gone and my body follows.
 
Hard choice, but if I had to pick one it would probably be my favorite game of all time:

Super Metroid on SNES.
 
Obviously the Fallout and Elder Scrolls series from Bethesda each has so many different quest lines and back stories to keep you going for 400+ hours.

Total War games of course OG Rome being my Fav but the OG Shogun will always have a special place as well.

But those have been mentioned by others.

Mount and Blade is another you can just go on four hundreds of hours without tiring of them. Like with Bethesda strong modding here helps as you can get tons of full length mods that make the game seem entirely new again. (especially when those are completely random like Star Wars, or the western mods)

Going a bit older you've got Age of Empires 1 and 2 can play that forever as well as the old Blizzard ones of WarCraft 1,2, and 3 as well as StarCraft (never did by 2, still annoyed at the loss of LAN)

I think the bonus of the Total War and Mount and Blade games is that you don't get cutscenes you've seen hundreds of times like you do in the others. That's my main reason for leaving out Mass Effect as well. The game itself is replayable but having to watch the same cutscenes over and over and over really gets old.

Not to mention the simple joy of heading forth without any specific goal, entering the random undiscovered cave or fort to clean from the undead and discovering another story there.
 
Rust

1210 hours so far.
 
Tornado: Operation Desert Storm

I've been thinking of trying to get a Win95-98 unit tossed together just to play it again.
 
Unreal Tournament and UT2004 even more.

I am with a couple others as I still Play UT2k4 and UT III

Men after my own heart. I have more than 2,000 hours in UT2004 and over 1,200 in UT3.

Honourable mentions go to Fallout: New Vegas, Skyrim, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution, each with over 100 hours behind them. If Bethesda ever adds procedural content generation to one of their games I am so screwed...

UT2004 is also highly moddable for both LAN and single player fun ... I remember bullet time mod, different bot swarm mods, experience points + leveling + weapon upgrades mods, gazzilion weapons mods ... good times
 
No one mentioned mmo's. Do they count for this topic ?
Lineage 2 would be for my number 1
Skyrim with mods would be my second
 
non online (because you can't say a online game is has a replay ability :laugh: ) i'd say TES I Arena/II Daggerfall/III Morrowind/IV Oblivion/V Skyrim, i did fall in TES when i was 13 :laugh: , altho only a mere 750hrs (for now on TESV )
Final Fantasy XIV has 590hrs but ... it's not replayable ... it's playable continuously ... oh well dungeon are replayable ... (altho .... world of warcraft on 10 yrs i probably did quite a lot on it ... , or Eve Online ... also a pack of hours on those ... but for me they don't qualify as replayable :roll: )


i don't wish that ... that would crapify the mod (sponsoring ... why not, as long as they don't impose any kind of limitations/obligation/bethesdaification )... because ... Morrowind without modding community ... would not be Morrowind (same goes for Skyrim also ...or any bethesda games aside DOOM 2016 ) bethesda has done only base and all the rest is from our mighty modders that grace the game from their talent...

well ... Skywind would not be Skywind if it was a mere original Morrowind remake, altho even in skyrim you can do the old character dev sys and spellcrafting ... but require extensive work nonetheless (nothing unreachable ... Skywind modder are not bethesda's ) and nope i would not see them using ressources given by bethesda even if sponsored by them. (Bethesda game studio is not Bethesda softwork anymore .... :cry: )

which server of ff14 u play on?
 
CSS, Diablo 2, Generals Zero hour, Dota 2.
 
Like a lot of people, i find the bethesda games since Morrowind (and fallout 3) really replayable, particularly elder scrolls ones as the different character classes makes you play the game differently

Stalker games are too, i recently reinstalled Call of Pripyat and have been playing it a bit, still awesome

I also started playing Warthunder again (planes, not done much tanks) i hadnt played in a while and its been quite enjoyable getting all the new planes
 
FFS nothing beats Tetris :D
 
mine is Dark souls 1 iv finished it so many times iv lost track and have played it for years i have about 1200 hours in it between console and pc
 
Civ 5

and a game nobody else has said
(goes to show how damn old I am getting)

SimCity 2000
 
Diablo, Diablo: Hellfire, Diable 2, Diablo: Lord of Destruction. Never played Diablo 3. :)
 
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (speedrunning)

Imho the first Diablo is still the best of 'em all.
I think so too. It was dark and gloomy. The deeper you descend the more eerie it gets. I also like that enemies don't respawn in Diablo I, so you can clear all maps/levels. Gameplay, story & environment/atmosphere are more important than gear/item farming. I remember how I managed to beat Butcher and Diablo with no gear at all. BTW Butcher was the most awesome and badass enemy in Diablo series:
