Hours actually playing RPGs, non-D&D?

[overgeeked]

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?

I went with 41-50, as I'm running Zeitgeist using Fate Core and we meet every 2 weeks or so.

That's on the basis that my two Pathfinder 1e games count as "D&D" - they do to me. Otherwise it would be (way) more than 60 hours.

Wrapped up a Savage Worlds campaign in June, tried a little Invisible Sun and now playing Ars Magica 5e.

As mentioned on the other thread 60 is a three hour game every other week

6 hours. 2 sessions of Cairn. 15% of all sessions this year

As mentioned on the other thread 60 is a three hour game every other week

Or just over one hour a week. Anybody who games weekly is going to be in the 150-hour range at least.

13 sessions of Pulp Cthulhu, 3 sessions Savage Worlds so far this year (if I have counted correctly). Each session is about 3 hours, so overall probably 40-50 hours.

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.

About 200 hours of WFRP this year.

Two sessions a week. One two hours, one three hours. There have been a few gaps due to sickness and holiday but balanced out with extra sessions or ones that run over by 30 mins. So confidently 200+ hours so far this year.
