Hours actually playing RPGs, non-D&D?

[RenleyRenfield]

I'm curious so thought I'd start two threads, one for D&D and one for all other games. This thread is for anything except D&D.

The rules are simple. It needs to be 1) a live game, played in real time (sorry PBP gamers); 2) it needs to involve other people (sorry solo gamers), and; 3) it needs to be hours spent actually playing the game, so prep doesn't count, making characters doesn't count, reading the books doesn't count, etc. Only time actually playing at the table (whether real or virtual).

Simple question really. How many hours in this calendar year (2025) have you spent actually playing any RPG that's not D&D?

We are at least at 150 hours up to this point in the year... if you count all the convention games we play and run too...

This year, been playing Vaesen, Daggerheart, Fabula Ultima, Shadowdark and Brindlewood Bay mostly. Sprinkling of Mappa Mundi, Fate(Star Trek) and Land of Eem.

Waiting impatiently for Dolmenwood. And really need to dive into Dragonbane.

Over 60 hrs. I’ve actually played very little D&D this calendar year. The games I’ve played in or run have included:
Shadowdark, Dragonbane, BattleTech/Mechwarrior, multi-supernatural World of Darkness, and now Daggerheart. There’s also plans for some WEG Star Wars (coming soon!)

The only D&D I've played this year was a four‑hour Deathwish5e game at Gamehole Con last weekend. I GM 8 hours of WFRP4e per month and played in a biweekly WFRP4e game for a few months. I don't have time for much more gaming than that.

The numbers don't go high enough as all my gaming is non-dnd if I can help it. Savage Worlds 2 hours per week, GURPS 4 hours per week. When University is in session another 4 hours per week - varies but never dnd.

 

[Distracted DM]

I'm going to count OSE, The Nightmares Underneath, and Shadowdark as D&D, so the only non-D&D game I've played this year is my increasingly-sporadic Pendragon game, which we've only gotten to play a handful of times this year, in 3-4 hour sessions. So I think I'm only in the 11-20 range this year. Ugh. The last couple years we were more regular.

See, I figured OP meant DND 5.X specifically but it just goes to show that you need to specify

I run a weekly Dungeon Crawl Classics game in a local shop, and each session is roughly 2 hours (the store closes early-ish and while the owners don't care if we go over a bit I try not to abuse the privelege). I also run a DCC game online for my 11yo and his friends. Earlier this year I had a weekly home game for my wife and stepkids and their SOs too.

I'm well into 60+ territory.

 

[LordEntrails]

2 hours/week of FrontierSpace every week this year. 3 hours/week of Cyberpunk Red for 9 sessions so far.
Yea, 60 is a pretty low bar it seems.

 

[Longspeak]

I said 60+ for the year, but to be fair I still run four times as much D&D.

I have neither played nor run any f20 games this year. I have played Dragonbane, Fabula Ultima, and a bit of Stonetop. I would like to get Daggerheart to the table, but one game at a time.
