Oblivion by far if you count making mods as playing the game.

Otherwise, Morrowind by far.

I lost count between both Morrowind and Oblivion. Usually involves messing around with mods, tuning it up with CS, and making the game work without CTD, bug-free and all.

I was in middle school when Daggerfall came out.

Nothing can compete with the free time available to a middle schooler. Nor that of a High Schooler.

By the time Morrowind came out, I was in college.

Granted, in a post-college environment, I'm slowly reverting to my middle school level of freetime, so Morrowind and Oblivion are slowly catching up.

Slowly.

Probably Morrowind. Oblivion comes in close though.

Or maybe it doesn't... I don't remember exactly.

At this point in time I've put about equal amounts of time into Morrowind and Oblivion. If this poll is made next year my answer will be Oblivion.

Oblivion by massive amounts. At least 1,500 hours, I'm not kidding, and I have barely gotten anywhere due to dead-is-dead lol

Morrowind. Oblivion I really liked at first but it just didn't have the same replay. I think part of it was that once I new where the grandmaster alchemy set I would start a new game and figure out how I could it early on. Not so much with stuff leveling within in in Oblivion.

Oblivion, I could divide my playtime with Oblivion by 4 and still it will exceed what I've spent with the other games combined, and I'm pretty deep into morrowind and daggerfall.

Daggerfall, by a very, very large margin!

I got the game on its release date, in 1996. For around 3 years it was the only game I played. Since 1999, I'm playing on a regular basis, yet less regular than when I first got it. :P

I don't think Morrowind and Oblivion will ever catch up, even combined. I must have around 2 thousand hours at most into Daggerfall. :celebration:

Mainly because I first bought Morrowind GOTY (PC) and it still thrills me, but the other hand the I've ever played Arena or Daggerfall yet except for Oblivion GOTY of course.

I have put the most hours into Oblivion although I like Morrowind the most. The reason is that in the early 2000s I was more into night clubbing and in the late 2000s more into home entertainment.

I probably put a couple hundred hours into Oblivion over a 2-3 month span. That fades into insignificance when compared to the several thousand hours I've put into Morrowind, its expansions, and its mods over the past 4-5 years.

OB was very impressive at first, and I thought it would surpass MW, but then I started to discover that most of the game mechanics had changed for the worse (no chance of failure at anything, more focus on player skill versus character skill, 3 day automatic respawn everywhere, overly levelled and scaled opponents and loot, etc.), and then the MQ just kept sending me into gate after gate after gate....

Daggerfall, by FAR. Finished main quest only maybe 3 times, start new characters occasionally even now. Play'throughs' are never the same, I just focus on one kingdom with a character now. Plus the character creation gives you millions of times more options than the later games.

Morrowind I've gone through twice-thrice maybe, haven't checked the mods in years though.

Oblivion through once, uninstalled maybe 2 years ago, missed many new mods too.

Others I've played through once, and ages ago. Not mobile ones.

When I get new comp I'm installing TES3 and 4 again and see the mods that are out by then. But not gonna do it in a year or two. Heck, I might get new rig only when TES5 is out.

Edit: well to be honest, I think I've spent more time in a single dungeon in TES2 than going through a whole guild quest line in TES3 or 4 :D

I put a disgusting amount of time into Morrowind for the Xbox. Then I bought a computer capable of running it for the PC so I played it heavily modded.

Oblivion was released, I bought it for the PC, and never returned to Morrowind until last year when I learned about the Morrowind Graphic Extender. I installed this, along with all of my favourite classic mods and wasted a good month or two playing.

I started playing Morrowind about 3 months after it was released.
I probably averaged 2 hours a day for 4 full years (I didn't even buy another game during that time period).

That puts my MW hours at around 3000.

I averaged less on Oblivion (partly because it was less immersive and partly because I had more "grown up" things to do), probably about 4 hours a week for the first 5 months, after that I switched to Total War and Civilization games.

Morrowind most definetly. I dont know why, but it is more appealing than Oblivion.
