I'd say between 40-50 hours a week.  PC mainly, sometimes PS5.

I am semi-retired, I will not put a vote in becuase of this.

Edited my post above. I am semi-retired due to being hit by a car on my motorcycle back in 2018.

Been gaming for over 25 years, won't stop any time soon 🙂

I’ve gotten older, I don’t have the time I used to, and I spend what time I have doing other things. I haven’t no lifed a game in years. I used to play 8 hours of csgo every day, spent like 500 hours one year just helping friends with building in Roblox, sunk 100 hours into terraria in one week once. But now? Nah

Ive got a high end gaming pc, 4k monitor, fancy peripherals, $2000 in pc audio hardware, library of games… and I used my main pc one time in the last month or so to rip a cd.

 

I play on a secondary PC with an N100 and 750ti with windows 8.1 more often, because secondlife, black ops 2 and Minecraft beta 1.7.3 are the only casual pc gaming I even do anymore. My partner spends more time playing the sims 3 on her pc than anything else, that being an 11400F and GTX Titan X pascal with 32gb of ddr4…

id say i get around 15 maybe a little more hours on my PC a week on average, of which around 11 of those are gaming (going off what i can guess and 22 hours over the past 2 weeks on steam) though this can vary quite a bit, how many times have i gone to the gym that week, if my weekly dnd is running (takes up an entire weeknight and is on my pc but ill not include that in the final number as its not video gaming nor time to myself on my PC), if im doing anything or have anything planned outside work or if i spend more or less time with my SO that week etc
