i wonder who has the highest play time. i know some people have over 10.000 of game time, share your steam profile screenshots and tell us why did you start to play this game.
i go first, i started to play this game around 2018, i was a huge fan of titan quest immortal throne and played hundreds of hours. i thought this game would be similiar to tqit and wanted to give a shot at grim dawn.
EDIT: too bad time spent in Grim Tools and GD stash is not shown, would have been embarrassing to know that XD
Not enough achievements for the time I’ve played…I haven’t even looked at them in all this time.
I started playing back in the early days, put it away for a long time, but am having fun again.
Pretty much the same reason as you Holy_Templar. I love TQ and when I heard Medierra was working on a new game using the same engine I backed it. That was around 2009-2010.
Im attacking 3k hours. Mmm, well, actually, its a good question. I have never been a mega huge ARPG fan. I have maybe 200 hours in diablo 2, 500 in diablo 3 and 300 hours in Van helsing trilogy. I dont like PoE at all. GD mh, i basically work as a scientist/ mathematician and I love to mess with numbers here. So many dmg types, resists, builds, toying with devotion paths…
Also worth mention I played GD itself for maybe 400 hours and the rest is mods.
And I am still a newbie in many game aspects 
.
I play with Steam in offline mode (due to bandwidth capped internet 
), so it does not track my hours played.
But I’ve been playing since early access in 2013, and I’ve likely spent a few thousand hours in Grim Dawn. Like most early backers, I had been a TItan Quest player and when I heard of this, it was an instant buy.
We need a leaderboard 
I came late to TQIT; subscribed to the newsletter of the old tq.net forum, which informed me in 2009 of medierra asking people questions regarding their next project; I spent way too much time there and later here, and was even asked to become a moderator so that I was also included to the initial closed testing group. I have recently crossed the 5,000 hours mark.
Powbam and dikkie would be at the top and never change though 
Well, according to eisprinzessin @eralduspr has 2k hours on me? I resent that and demand proofs! 
No shame there. I don’t care bout cheevos much either.
oh, and…
I just showed up for the cheese.
For me, I’m kinda in the same boat as lord_mayak; the vast majority of my time in GD has been spent in offline mode. As to what I’ve spent online…
Started playing because a friend told me those guys from Titan Quest were making an offshoot.
I’ve been slacking on my afk hours the past year… I will not let this stand!
Yep, I have nearly 17k hours of playing GD, but about half are mostly me being afk 
Recently passed the 1500 hours mark.
I was curious what date I purchased the game. Looks like it was April 16, 2012.
That Epic version included Beta access and name in credits.
And while trying to find that email…
I came across a newsletter from November 10, 2009 which includes Grim Dawn discussion. I think the “Forbidden Areas” are what became the Roguelike Dungeons? I guess it was decided to use skeleton keys after all…
Interesting find Mornay. Maybe the Vanquisher set is a variation on that original idea of a special armour to let you into the Forbidden Area.
