A Reddit user named Shalhadra found out that the in-game timer inElden Ringcaps out at 999:59:59, so the number of hours they spend in the game beyond this point will not be added to the timer. The player appears surprised at the timer not going to 1,000 hours, while also wondering if something was broken in their copy ofElden Ring. It seems like Shalhadra is playing on PS5, so they can also check their total hours on the console’s home menu.
Users in the comments section confirm that there is a limit toElden Ring’s timer, with many players jokingly recommending that Shalhadra spend time in the real world. One fans asks Shalhadra how they didn’t get bored for so long, prompting them to confirm that they spent a lot of time in themultiplayer component ofElden Ring. Some users also have a discussion on how much time they should be spending on games daily, with a few players arguing that two hours a day is not that much.
One fan also wonders how Shalhadra hasn’t reached thelevel cap inElden Ring, as the image shows that they are at level 471, which is pretty far from the maximum of 713. In addition to comments on the in-game timer, many fans seem fixated on Shalhadra’s character, as it looks like they have created Ciri fromThe Witcher 3inElden Ring. Overall, though, most users echo the idea that Shalhadra should take a break from the game.
