How many hours each day do you spend playing ESO ?

NeuroticPixels

Right now, ESO isn’t my main game. So when I log on, I’m on for less than two hours. Sometimes less than 45 minutes.

I log on to get the daily reward, higherling mails, and train mounts.
And right now, to do a daily to get event tickets.

Sometimes I stick around longer to do the endeavors or list stuff on a guild store.

I even take a mental note of how many days I can skip logging in without missing the main daily reward (the one that’s around the middle of the month, like a pet or emote or whatever).

During the work week usually in the evening for a few hours, weekends a bit longer.
On avg I spose it comes out to 6-8.
TBH I just play when I feel like it, stop when I've had enough, not sure of exact play time.

These days it's usually two hours or less. I log on, do the endeavors, "hang out' a bit, maybe a couple dailies for social interaction. I haven't finished the latest story yet, but I'm not driven to follow up on it, and it keeps getting put on the back burner. The spark is definitely gone for me.

Syldras

It really depends. If there's no new content, I'm sometimes around for only 30 minutes when I'm alone (doing daily crafting, endeavors and maybe an event quest, if there's currently one - and after that, maybe a bit of random questing or housing stuff). If my partner is online too, it can be 2, 3 hours, occasionally more (it's a long-distance relationship though, and doing group dungeons together or just sitting around and chatting in ESO is one of our means to spend time together).

If there was new (interesting) story content, I spent more time playing, of course. Much more even, when I think of ESO's first few years. I can still remember when Wrothgar, Morrowind or Summerset were released, I sometimes played the whole Friday or Saturday evening up to 2 or 3 a.m., not realizing how fast time passed, because the story was so engaging. Never had that with High Isle or Firesong, though. This year's story content seemed more like a filler if I still had a bit of time left in the evening, doing maybe 1 or 2 quests a day, if at all. The storytelling this year never fascinated me much.

Elsonso

Most days... less than 15 minutes.

Lugaldu

Like @Syldras said, mostly 2-3 hours a day, sometimes we hang out together in Tamriel for half the day.

AlterBlika

It depends. Some days I don't even log in, some days I play like 4-8 hours. I actually love this about eso - the thing that you don't really have to log in every day, do your dailies, etc. It doesn't feel like a job like many other games. So I log in when I feel like I want to PLAY a game, and this is fine by me.

Milchbart

Before U35 with an active subscrption 2-3 hours per day.

Now after U36 I did not renew my sub and just login to sell things with the guild trader but don't play at all.

I lost all hope and don't trust any promises from Zenimax ...

Casdha

This time of year it is zero. After story content drops at least for the last few years, I've played up to 16 hour days. After the new map is all white on about 2 characters I'm done until the next story drops with an occasional log in to see how things are going. Then I might log on a few times in between stories just as a time killer, when there is nothing else I want to do.

Rasoma

I spend too long playing ESO - around 6-8 hours a day.

Let me put that into context though. I am at home looking after an elderly parent who has memory issues in addition to other age related problems. ESO is there for the times I am able to have some "me time" to escape and as I cannot escape outside (as I may be needed to assist finding something that has not been lost because they forgot it ceased to exist several years ago) I need something I can enjoy and put down at a moments notice.

That's why I do not do group/vet content as I cannot guarantee I will not be called away. ESO is enjoyable as you can explore and cater to my completionist issue for zones. Yes I return to the computer to find my companion mourning me at times.

Dragonlord573

Last 3 months I've literally only been logging in to get my daily login. I've had very little interest in playing lately.

xDeusEJRx

Not enjoying state of the game so I'm lucky to have more than 2 hours a week on this game. Been having my fill of fun elsewhere

shaxigamingeb17_ESO

I log on for the trial of the night and writs and surveys. I can sense the quitting at this point

more you play, more you see bugs

Eldartar

It used to be 8 - 12hrs + per day, over the last say 3 mths or so it's now around 2-3hrs per day. I'm hopeful for 2023 and the changes to the servers etc but dreading another U35 like disaster. Time, as they say, will tell.

ArchMikem

Been playing modded Skyrim again lately. That's the one thing ESO doesnt have. The ability to customize your game, visuals, environment, jiggle physics...

Necrotech_Master

I play a lot, I chose the 6-8 hours slot. I know about the bugs. I do lots of different content. I still play.

Hlaaluna

I have always averaged about 2 hrs. That has not changed in the 8 or so years I have been playing. It varies on xpac and when there is new content.

Flameweaver1951

Probably too many !

vsrs_au

OK, I confess: the 4.5 hours a week has increased to 5.8, at least that's the 2 week rolling average that Steam reports to me. It's mainly because I've been spending a LOT of time leveling up the 7 crafting disciplines, since I started crafting for the first time a week ago. So much time, in fact, that even though I had about 60+ spare skill points a week ago, I ran out of them today, and had to go skyshard hunting.

Sparxlost

none

U35 devastated the end game community in both PvE and PvP. It makes me sad.

wilykcat

I play league of legends for approximately 3 hours. I then spend up to 4 hours doing hobbies (mostly working on digital art).

On weekdays I spend approximately 2 hours on elder scrolls online leveling my 2 mains by spamming dungeons (this happensafter work(my shift is 5 hours) when I'm bored). On weekends I'm not sure how much time I spend playing elderscrolls.

TwinLamps

15 minutes, to do endevors

Molydeus

A couple of hours after work each day. When I'm off, potentially 10+ unless we have something planned. My wife plays roughly the same amount. She found housing and furnishing so that's her endgame and she's ate up with it. I'm more into questing, dungeons, and trials. We love this game. I play other stuff too, but I always come back to ESO.

Mesite

Won't be playing much in coming days. Problems with updating. Need to free up space on my hard drive for the installation.
