Steam reviewer logs 30,000 hours in Cities: Skylines, decides it sucks: "BY FAR most frustrating, enraging game of my entire life"

It’s not often you spend 30,000 hours playing a single video game, but when that does happen it’s usually because you’re really, really into it. Not always the case, however, as proven by a fascinating Steam review for Cities: Skylines from a player with nearly 30,000 hours logged.

When I first came across this post on Reddit, I had to check for myself, and sure enough, I was able to track it down and confirm that, at the very least, the reviewer had 29,926.3 hours logged in Cities: Skylines at the time of writing. That doesn’t mean the reviewer actually played the game for that long – although it’s possible – but that’s the amount of time the game client was active. Still, even if half, or even three-quarters of that time, was spent idling, that’s still an absolutely absurd amount of playtime for a single-player game.
