What game has so mich playtime until people give it a downvote?
Usually games as a service, they'll release a large patch or expansion that makes significant, unpopular, changes. So lots of long time fans will review bomb it, in a good way, to show their displeasure.
It's sometimes works too.
One does not even need to review bomb as a single update can easily ruin a game. After that it's no longer comparable to the game one was playing for possibly thousands of hours.
I’m pretty sure DOTA has stuff like this.

That's actually a brilliant review and sums up my feelings on having played League of Legends for several years.
Can confirm. Have 3500 hours, would not recommend
Man the only things I’ve spent thirty-five hundred hours on are shitting, sleeping, working and eating.
People that play 1-2 hours a day for the year for 5-10 years will have 3560 hours by the end of it. Anymore than that and it will be more.
+3k hours is not that hard for games that have been there for a while.
I wonder if I'd prefer DOTA for 8,5 hours daily or working
I'd get bored of it after a week when I have done everything the game has to offer. Unless it was behind grind-fests, then it would be sooner.
In some jobs that "all it has to offer" comes way quicker than a week
Sometimes its strategy games like city builders and 4Xs that can be addictive without being enjoyable
