Elden Ring features a vast open world with tons of content, leading to playthroughs that can take over 50 or even 100 hours to complete.
One player has reached the game's maximum visible playtime of 999:59:59, according to the in-game timer.
Other players are recommending that the fan take a break from the game and spend time in the real world, considering that 1000 hours on a single character is deemed ridiculous.
A dedicated fan of Elden Ring has exceeded the playtime limit, reaching the maximum duration that can be displayed in the game. Elden Ring offers an expansive open world with abundant content, and players continuously unlock new regions while progressing through the main quest. With numerous areas to explore, completing a single playthrough can take over 50, or even 100 hours. Some gamers opt to embark on a New Game+ adventure, allowing them to replay Elden Ring with a stronger character. A select few take this opportunity to seek vengeance on early-game bosses, effortlessly defeating enemies that had posed a challenge in their initial playthrough. Elden Ring keeps track of players' total game time, and recently, one fan accomplished the feat of reaching the maximum playtime allowed.
Shalhadra, a Reddit user, discovered that the in-game timer in Elden Ring has a maximum limit of 999:59:59. Any hours played beyond this point will not be recorded. Shalhadra expresses surprise and questions whether there may be a glitch in their copy of the game, as the timer does not reach 1,000 hours. It appears that Shalhadra is playing on a PS5 and is advised to check their total hours on the console's home menu.
Commenters in the thread confirm the existence of a timer limit in Elden Ring, jokingly suggesting that Shalhadra should spend time in the real world. One fan asks how Shalhadra managed to avoid getting bored for such a lengthy period, prompting them to explain that they spent a significant amount of time in the game's multiplayer mode. Other users engage in a discussion about the appropriate daily time allocation for gaming, with a few arguing that two hours per day is not a substantial amount.
One fan is questioning why Shalhadra has not reached the level cap in Elden Ring, considering their current level of 471, which falls significantly short of the maximum level of 713. Alongside discussions about the in-game timer, many fans are fixated on Shalhadra's character, as they appear to have recreated Ciri from The Witcher 3 in Elden Ring. However, the majority of users agree that Shalhadra should take a break from the game. Elden Ring can be played on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
