How long is your play session?

How long do you play in one sitting/ a day? I only ever have an hour or two if I’m lucky, so I wanted to see how much other people got to play.

Also, how does this compare to your other games? Different sims games or otherwise.

    Depends on how much free/idle time I have available. Anywhere from 30 minutes to hours and hours...pretty much the same as any other game I play. This week, because of the holiday...it's been 10 hours at a time sometimes, unless you count stopping to eat and stuff. I do other stuff while playing though (watch netflix, browse these forums, talk on the phone, etc.)

    Pretty much this. Usually when I have only a short time to play, I work on a build, or play a single day with a single sim household. Larger households take more time, so I like to have more time for them.

    I don't open my game unless I have at least an hour to play. Usually I'll play for 1 or 2 hours, but sometimes I get to play for 5 hours.

    1 to 2 hours.
    3 to 4 times during a week.

    1 or 2 hours, 2 to 4 times a week. Sometimes I'm lucky and get 3 hours but that's rare.

    I find I cannot usually play more than an hour these days, 2 at most. Gone are the times of ts2 when I'd play all evening and only reluctantly leave my chair for sleep at about 2 am.

    Pretty much exactly the same as this.

    Truly depends. Most weeks I may get an hour or 2 in on weekdays. That’s if I even play during the week and I often don’t. Weekends I can play up to 6-8 hours a day. Not all in one sitting but throughout the day. Currently with being off work I have been able to play more than normal which has been nice. I also don’t like opening unless I have at least an hour and that’s with any game.

    My game is pretty much open all day, every day. But I'm disabled, so there isn't much else demanding my attention.

    Sims really isn't the kinda game where you can pop on your computer for 10mins and go. You need hours to get anywhere.

    I maybe play about 3-5 hours on school days, if I don't have homework. Sometimes more on the weekend and even more during long breaks since I leave my game open. Compared to playing other games, it's pretty much the same since I tend to lose track of time while playing, especially with FPS.

    I probably average around 20 hours of play a week. I usually don't play unless I can devote at least a couple of hours to playing. Last week I was out of town and although I had my laptop with me I didn't get a chance to play so I've been playing on and off all day yesterday and today.

    About an hour later at night, maybe two on the weekend.

    Mostly in the afternoons and evening I can play. I usually leave the game running and play as I get time!

    Depends, maybe a couple of hours once or twice a week. Most of the time less as I'm too busy nowadays

    About 1-2 hours per week. I don't play other games. I'm not so much of a (casual) gamer.
