Backloggd's Top 250
To be eligible for this list, a game must:
-Have 1,000+ plays.
-Not be DLC, an expansion, a collection, or a chapter.
-Be the most played version of the game it's representing. In the case where an alternate version* of a game has more plays than the original version, the original version is listed as a note.
*I use Glitchwave to determine what should be considered an alternate version of a preexisting game, since to my knowledge it has the most comprehensive version combining out of any game database.

I still think this needs FFXIV
Shouldn't Persona 5 Royal be on here? Since Persona 3 Fes and Persona 4 golden are on here and they're both expanded version of their game just like Royal for Persona 5. Other than that great list, I love checking this list every Thursday to see what's been removed or added.
Alena_03: I don't disagree that it deserves to be on here, but I'm not going to break the "no expansions" rule to include it, sorry.
Ctfgaming: Persona 3 FES and 4 Golden are the most played versions of 3 and 4 on this site. Royal currently has less plays than base P5, if that ever changes then I'll replace it.

That makes sense, I'm actually surprised the original has more. though I think Royal will pass the original sooner than later considering it just came out on Xbox/Switch/PC. Thanks for answering my question.
