PostIf you had to play 1 game for 24hrs.

Shout out to The Doom Spoon for this Idea as he's going to be doing a Sea of Thieves 24hr challenge in a couple of weeks.

Here's his thread:

and some links:


Anyway, It got me thinking about what game I'd play if it was for 24hrs. If I had 3 others doing it with me then yeah, Sea of Thieves would be ideal, but I think I could handle PUBG also. DayZ is also an obvious candidate as everything takes AGES and you have to get all the loot back if you get killed. I think I could actually do DayZ on my own for 24hrs.

Other candidates for games playing alone for 24hrs would be 'They are Billions' (Zombie Survival RTS), this takes AGES to play and I could while away many many hours. I think Survival kinda games like Subnautica and The Long Dark would also be ideal but I think the online emergent element of DayZ would probably mean that's the game I'd play.

Can't see myself playing ANY single player game for 24hrs, I mean you could easily do this in The Witcher 3, Skyrim, Fallout NV etc. but I think you'd tire of the AI eventually.

Borderlands 2 or 3, easily.

Just keep making and farming for different fun/broken builds.

Skyrim. I might get closer to finally finishing it!

My Switch save is over 170hrs and I dont think I'm even halfway yet!

It'd have to be a large platform/adventure title, the one that came to mind immediately was Donkey Kong 64, so I'll stick with that.

Check out my YouTube channel!

Breath of the Wild seems the perfect game for this.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate probably. Mix up the characters and the modes, bit of single-player, bit of online... Only problem is, due to the Switch’s portable nature there’s no respite even while on the loo.

Reckon I could do this with the new Pokémon games when they come out too.

If I was playing BOTW for the first time, I would have embraced a reason to play it for 24 hours.

So with that in mind, I'll punt on BOTW2 :datass:

Championship Manager 01/02. I've probably played that for nigh on 24 hours straight in the (very distant) past so I think it's achievable.

Destiny. Wouldn't even be a struggle as there's so much to do on there these days.

I could see myself messing around in Los Santos on GTA V Online for 24 hours. I probably wouldn't stay in a populated server, though, instead keeping to invite only. Round of golf, few races and other missions, and setting challenges within free-roam such as driving a bus to the top of Mount Chiliad (or at least try to, as so far I've failed whenever I've tried).

Pick one you haven't already done it for.

In that case, probably Skyrim.

I think something like GTA:V would be my choice as well. Lots of variety in things you can do and a massive area in which to do it.

I think there are plenty I could happily do this with if I was so inclined. It's the "getting tired" bit that prevents it more than "getting bored of playing" (as well as having other responsibilities).

Right at this moment I'd pick Death Stranding, but if I was planning to do it one off for a stream I think I'd go with Jak II.

Breath of the Wild on a new save. Or an MMO I haven't played before with a friend. Near enough did that with SWTOR years ago.
